Well I made a big "decision" today - hope it's going to work out.
On Friday I'm going to be bringing home a kitten that my Vet is trying to find a good home for. He's the last of a litter that my vet took in months ago.
I've been thinking of getting a new cat-friend for my cat Lucky since his own litter-mate and my dear companion Toby died a few months ago. Lucky is 16, so I had been thinking of an adult or even a senior cat. But I've seen his little guy a number of times and my Vet is so good, he and his team foster cats on a regular basis and normally he find homes for them really quickly.
So today the nurse, Vet and I struck a "deal" -- I'm going to bring home the kitten on Friday and look after him and see how he gets on with Lucky ... my Vet told me that if it doesn't work out and Lucky gets upset I can bring the kitten back and they'll be able to find a home for him.
I know that I need to introduce them slowly to each other - I just hope the generation gap doesn't cause them a problem. Any thoughts/ideas ? Any one out there bring a kitten home to an old/senior cat ?
