I went into Petco last night to get cat litter for His Majesty Don Juan, and made the mistake of going to the back of the store where they keep adoptable cats. I made the aquaintance of Casey, a two-year-old female brown tabby. She meowed and put her paw up on the glass, and I sat on the floor and talked to her.
I've thought about getting a playmate for Don Juan, but I don't know how I can do it. I'm in a small one-bedroom/one bath apartment. The bathroom has a space just large enough for DJ's cat box, but I don't know where I can put another box. It also means I don't have a place where I can segregate a new cat and gradually introduce two cats to each other.
Then, there's the $ factor. I'm hoping to be called back for a temp assignment at a CPA office, but if that doesn't happen I'll be back to looking for work.
But I'd like another cat, if only so Don Juan won't be so dependent on me for company.
What do you think? Can I introduce another adult cat to Don Juan (he's 5 1/5)? Should I think about a kitten instead? Or should I forget it?
