I am thinking about getting a 3rd cat sometime in the near future. It will be either a kitten or an adult who is already used to dogs. I already have a female and a male cat (they are spayed and neutered) and the new cat will be neutered as well of course.

Does gender make a difference if the cats are all fixed? If so, would it be better to introduce a new female or male into the house?

My current cats are not really buddies (each of them offer more affection to the dogs than to each other), but they don't really fight, either (but they did when we first introduced Pip). I would like to get another cat but I want to do so without disrupting the other two as much as I can.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
