Some may remember my cat Jessie of almost 21 years died recently. I felt guilty at first for thinking about new cats so soon. I actually started thinking about what cats I would get long before she died, just because I knew it would happen someday.<br><br><br><br>
Kittens are super cute, and I figured I "deserved" one for having lived with an adult for so long, and could use a change. But I also know that adults already have their personalities developed, are harder to find homes for, and are lower maintenance than kittens.<br><br><br><br>
So I adopted a kitten a couple weeks ago who was the last in her litter, and who wasn't being shown at the pet store any more because she was getting stressed out by it. Her name was Leila, but bc I couldn't get that song out of my head, I changed it to <a href="http://www.pantheon.org/articles/l/lilith.html" target="_blank">Lilith</a>. Although she is named for the mythological character and not Frasier's ex wife, I did think of naming her Daphne, and then if I got a male cat, naming him Niles.<br><br><br><br>
She is 20 weeks still needs to get some more vaccines and be spayed. I want her spayed ASAP, and the thing I signed said I should do it by5 months but my vet recommends 6 months. I am thinking of getting a second cat soon.<br><br><br><br>
Let me know your thoughts. Would it be better to get another female, or a male? I am thinking of getting a young adult. I also need a cat that could handle living with even more cats if I move in with a boyfriend or husband with cats someday. I inquired about <a href="http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=4276212" target="_blank">this</a> cat, because I think he might fit the bill.<br><br><br><br>
Going from caring to a chronically ill geriatric cat to a kitten is a big change!! I keep fearing that she will hurt her joints if she jumps from too high and am afriad to play too rough! So I have my brother come over who is good at roughhousing young cats (in a good way!!) I also now have to worry about things tipping over, being chewed on, etc. My old cat was not only old, but had model cat behavior her whole life. I was spoiled!<br><br><a href="http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/synergy_sun/my_photos" target="_blank">http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/synergy_sun/my_photos</a> for cute pictures!

"> if you're looking for another cat right away he seems like a good candidate based on the description they gave and what you said you want.
