So it seems like our flea problem is finally under control and we are just about ready to bring a second cat into our home. We already know that we are going to adopt from the same rescue that we adopted Annie from, and there is a cat there that I really like, but I am concerned with whether she will bond with Annie. The facility is cage-free, so this tabby is used to being around a variety of cats. She is 18 months old, very playful yet very independent (she'll let you pick her up or pet her, but she tends to have the attitude that she'd really rather be somewhere else). Our Annie is super mellow and pretty much would get along with anyone I think.
My question is do I take a chance on the older tabby or would it be safer to stick with a kitten (around 5 months old)? I think Annie really wants a companion and I would hate to bring a new cat in who just gives her the cold shoulder.
