I am considering a friend for Pudge.
After very unpleasant past experiences with a male cat we had to rehome (after over a year of futily trying EVERYTHING under the sun to calm him down) because of his extremely dominant behavior which made her a nervous wreck (which I am happy to say she's mostly recovered from now), I am heavily reluctant to get another male cat.
I keep hearing that girls can never get along, that they'll constantly be at each other's throats, etc. However, quite a few of you have more than one fuzzy female sharing your homes.
I know that personality plays a huge role in how the cats will get along (and I want a cat who is at least 2 years old, as Pudge is a little over 2), but I would like to know if the phrase "female cats don't get along" holds any water. How do your females usually interact?
