Luv my kitties!
I think a certain kitty with the name of Puppy would provide you with the best of both worlds. What better than a kitty that follows you around like a puppy!??! He's younger so would be with you a little longer, giving you time to heal your heart and get all caught up with the vet. Just my thoughts.

I'm with QofP. A cat named Puppy? It's a sign!
Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

Take your time, Slick. Glad you can get your fur therapy regularly! Merlin may indeed be showing you possibilities, but you will know when the time is right.

"That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

Slick, I have a feeling that you're not quite ready yet, so do take your time. Go get some fur therapy at the sanctuary and one day, you'll get a sign and know it's right.

Of course whatever you feel is right-on the other hand getting Orion 3 days after Filou left for Rainbow Bridge saved us a lot of tears. Made me feel a little guilty but it was the right decision....

Slick, Yes please take your time. From my own experience, I've always found that by adopting another cat that I was able to heal a lot faster. I also agree with MOFF in that if you do decide to adopt another older kitty, that you may not have the cat for very long. Then you'd have to go through the grieving process all over again way too soon.I also seem to remember that you posted some where on PT that when Merlin was gone that you wanted to eventually adopt 2 cats the next time. If this is still true then Puppy wouldn't be the right choice. I know that I've posted many things on PT before and then I've changed my mind later so maybe you have too. Good luck with whatever type of animal companion that you end up adopting. I know that they'll have the best home.
