Frances is a 1 yr old male neutered cat. I'm gone a lot, so I wanted to get him a "companion kitty" to play with. He has NEVER been around other cats so I wasn't sure what kind to get (younger male, older male, younger female, etc.). I have a 4 yr old neutered male right now on "trial run" from a friend. I've had him for 2 weeks. He wants to be friends with Frances, but Frances hates him. I thought the male/male dynamic might not be a good idea, was thinking of getting a 3 - 6 mo. old spayed female. Any ideas on what would be a good companion for a spoiled, I'm-the-boss alpha male cat??? Any advice would be appreciated...I have to make a decision on the "trial run" kitty ASAP!!!
