Here's an amusing, but devious proposition. My shelter just received the sweetest, cutest kitten (estimated 12-14 weeks) ever. An associate pointed him out to me, and he's a living doll. Here's the devious part: I have a sweetheart of a three-year old British Shorthair who I think needs a buddy. The problem is that my wife is nervous about having a new cat because she fears one or the other will start marking if nervous. I keep assuring her that this behavior is rare even with nervous cats. The associate said, "Why not foster him?" That's sneaky because I know my wife won't be able to give him up! Any advice on what I can tell her to ease her fears? (I also think she fears screwing up a good thing since Little Button is a very happy although sometimes lonely cat.)
