What is your kitty limit?

Since I want my cats to have around 2000 sq. ft. to roam indoors, not including rooms they're not allowed in, closet space or walls, each, I would say 2 is my limit now. In the future, I don't think I'd ever have more than 4 unless they were a family already because I don't want to force them to live in a pack like a doggie.
Ha, there are no rooms my cats aren't allowed in - in fact, there pretty much aren't any rules for them to abide by! =) I have a 1900 sq ft home and they have free reign to everything and do awesome together- they're all a big family- definitely not living like a "pack like a doggie". They all groom each other, play with each other, and respect each other. It's great and I couldn't be happier (well, I could- by having even more but I'm about at my limit as well).
I haven't reached mine yet..will let you know, though.....
My limit woulD have to be four
At the moment though I can only have Eli and Ari since I live with my mom.
When I get my own place it will probably be pretty small and I wouldnt get more kitties, but if I find a larger place that allows four kitties (or buy a house or something) then I will get four.
Around here there aer alot of places that say "no pets" and definitely even if they do say pets, they dont want more than one dog or two cats.

As many as "follow me home"... Seriously likely 6-10 when Kandie passes , Zoey si a social girl ... Kandie tolerates Zoey and hopefully will accept one more..
3 mommy and daddy dont want no more fuzzies :-(
Hehe cool bumping a thread from two years ago!
10 is still my limit
we currently have six
Two Cats are my limit.
Not too long ago I would have said 3, but now I have to say 4!
Money and space, I could definitely have more, but allergies make my limit one.
She gets the love and attention of about 10 cats.
That's a good way of putting it as well. =)
Our self imposed limit is 3, but it's soooo hard to keep to, you know? but every time i look at the little tortie kittens held up for adoption by second chance at the pet stores, Jason says "remember, if you get another kitty, you have to give one of ours away" and that stops right there.I know that if we ended up with 4 he'd not make me give one away, but it's good reinforcement.
Right now my limit is two. Both space wise and financially. I live in a one bedroom apartment so not a lot of room. And I'm planning to move back home with my parents next year so I think three will be their limit. They have one and I have two.
Once I get done saving up for a house and buy one though? I think four is a nice number.

I'd love to have another young cat to be friends with Pete, because he pretty much drives "the girls" crazy, but, for financial reasons, three has to be my limit. I know I can responsibly care for three on my budget and want to keep it that way.
do i ever get that - last fall, at this time i would've said 2 was my limit. then Cable came into our lives, & it was 3. then Mouse went to the bridge, & it was back to 2, with no plans for another... till Java showed up, & friendly & homeless. i have no plans for more - my house is too small!Originally Posted by kittylover4ever

Two is my limit. Plus however many outside cats want to land here. Plus a few temporary fosters...you know, keep it flexible. But two is a good number for me financially and regarding litterbox duties

My limit *was* 4 cats.
Then I moved into a bigger house. I then took in 2 more unwanted (older) cats!
And now, well 6 is definitely my limit. My hands are VERY full and with 4 of my 6 being over the age of 12, the Vet bills this year so far have been really putting a dinger on my wallet. (but it's worth it... I love them)
