    I understand everything about vet bills being double ( as i said in the original post) and i very well understand cats can get sick. My boyfriend would also like these guys (he doesnt want one to be lonely) and will help me pay for yearly vet bills (and emergency) and food and litter when he can (he gets a good amount of unemployment that he wastes. Since Wally was My cat and i didn't feel he needed to pay anything as i had it undercontrol).
    Medusa, with Wally i was haveing a little trouble getting him to vet because it was a specialist 4 or 5 towns over. But from that whole experiance i learned i have plenty of friends and family willing to take me if need be. When i posted about no ride i was more freaking out then being rational. So once i made calls to people i didn't think of at first i had no problem.

    I think 2 cats is double the pleasure, double the fun! Actually, hard for me to remember back to the day sof "only" 2, lol.

    These brothers are young, adorable and used to being together. That will be great! Just be sure to -
    - get copies of the vet records
    - get something signed by this person saying he is giving the cats to you. Then YOU can go directly to the vet they have been seeing and learn if there are any issues. This will also help if he can't find the rabies certificates; you can go to the prior vet and get copies.

    I learned the hard way when I adopted Ruffles from a very nice woman. The woman was elderly, moving into senior living and could only keep one cat. I already HAD Ruffles, and when I went to the vet, naturally they wouldn't give me a thing without proof. Fortunately, it was just a matter of me phoning the woman, driving back to her home, having her sign a paper I wrote up myself. There really wasn't any "problem," just time and such. Once I had that, the prior vet's office gladly gave me what I needed, answered my questions, and so on, no troubles at all.

    I THINK TWO CATS ARE MUCH BETTER THAN ONE, AS THEN THE CATS WILL HAVE SOMEONETO PLAY WITH AND THERE WONT BE NEARLY AS MUCH CHANCE OF THEM BEING BORED OR LONESOME.

    I am lucky with the vet I have. I have 4 cats and always take them in, 2 at a time... he only charges me 1 office visit for 2 cats and I really think he lowers his costs on multiple pet households. Sometimes he even gives me a break on the cost of their meds if I have 2 meds to pick up at a time.

    My old vet used to do that, too, plus he'd give me meds that he had in his office free of charge. Not so w/the vet I have now but I love him to pieces so no complaints.
