I'm SO glad that I decided to get a 2nd cat. I was worried because my first cat was total fat cat/alpha male...but I got another male from the Humane Society...he is such a sweetheart...
...he is a total lap cat and has the best personality. And now my 2 kitties are playing together nicely.
Just wanted to say for anyone who is hesitating...GET A SECOND CAT!!! Also consider an older cat, not a kitten.
