Hello everyone, I am new to this website so this is the first post i have made. Last week I lost my beloved Giuseppe (2 years old) to a car accident. We got Giuseppe and his brother Horatio 2 years ago, they are brothers from the same litter and spent every day together since their birth until Giuseppe's death. Coping with his death has been so much harder than I ever imagined and i have taken to all sorts of methods to cope with the loss. Today I decided I would contact the owners of our cats birth mum(Sue), I wasn't sure what I hoped to achieve from speaking to her owners but I called and asked did she have any other kittens but I was informed that she was since neutered but if i wanted I could take her as they have a new dog and can't give her the life she wants! Horatio is all on his own and although I'm nowhere near ready to replace Giuseppe, this is different as she is a part of Giuseppe and I thought that it may be nice for Horatio to be reunited with his mother. I don't know how he would take to a new cat as he is quite a nervous cat and does't like other animals much and he may not even realise that it is his mother.
i would just like to know anybody's thoughts on the matter, do you think it would be very weird? Would it be too much on both cats? Does it seem like I'm trying to replace Giuseppe? My Fiance has said no way, it's too soon and will be too tugh on horatio to get used to but i have perked up so much since hearing and I would love to know what everybody else thinks. Any advice would be greatly accepted.
Thanks.
