I have a nearly 4 year old neutered female cat. I have been thinking about adopting another cat, but I fear they won’t get along. Current cat is not really social, rarely likes being touched, instead requires attention: playtime, being near (but far enough), etc.
What are your experiences with second cats? Are there age / gender combinations which are the safest?
Edit: thanks for all the replies! Forgot to mention that she is an indoor cat.
I think it depends on the cat.
My cat loves people and hates other cats. I’ve never seen her interact with another cat in a way that wasn’t screaming and slapping. She adores humans though. In fact I’m gonna go hang out with her on the couch and watch TV.
