One cat VS two cats

15:23:52

Question
I am adopting a Manx kitten Saturday.  He also has a sister which I would also like to adopt.  I'm retired and I'm home most of the time.  I want the cat to bond with me. Should I just adopt one kitten?

Answer
Rick,

They could both bond with you.  Taking care of too is no more difficult than taking care of one.  I would tend towards the two of them.

How old are they?  4-5 months of age is a perfect time to adopt the two of them. Do they get along with each other presently?  If so, this could be a good match.

Best regards... Norm.
