Hi! I have a question for anyone who can help me. Until last month we had a 16 yr. old Lab who absolutely loved "her kitty". We had an older cat when Brandy came to us 16 years ago. She loved Fred and mourned with us when Fred died several years later. Then we obtained Baxter who had been abandoned in a parking lot near the fire station where my son worked. Baxter and our pup were best friends - until Baxter sadly died at the age of 7 due to cancer. That was in June of last year. In August we rescued Cody from the local shelter and Brandy (our pup) again fell in love. When Brandy died in January, we were all devastated - including our cat. We are now ready to rescue another cat. Cody has been neutered. Does it matter whether we get a boy or a girl? We will have the kitten spade/neutered as soon as we get him/her. I just wondered which I should look for. Thanks for the advice!
