Awww, drat! Too bad Zippy is so far away. Miss Kitty sounds like the perfect addition, and then you could have the Nothern division of the House of Orange.

Both Perrin and Mae are adorable and I'm sure either one of them would fit right in. Like others have said, you will know when you find "the one." He/she will jump right out of the screen at you and say "Meowmie, it's me and I want to go home now, okay?" Or, you never know, he/she may just literally cross your path someday..... Either way, you will know, and like Zippy says, we'll support you no matter what decide to do. {{{hugs}}}

As for success stories, I can't think of any better one than HH Edwina and Eddie. Trust me, if Edwina can learn to peacefully coexist, I'm sure Max can too.

I guess I could say the exact same thing that Debbie did about Mimi and Butter, Slick. Mimi, in her younger years, could not tolerate the thought of another cat sharing our household, which she proved when we tried to keep Dwayne, a tiny kitten that my brother found. But, 5 years ago, she decided to allow Butter to come inside. I will warn you that they still are not good friends, and I think that Butter would enjoy a more playful, younger sibling, but I won't even test Mimi on this issue, again, during her lifetime, since she is already 16 years old. They have sort of found a "happy medium" and I don't want to ever upset her again.

That said, you will know when the timing is right, and will find the right kitty to fit into your home. I know the pain you have with losing Speckles. Just take your time, my friend. Anytime a new cat joins the household, it is usually chaotic, but things will settle down. If only cats could be as easy to put together with a new friend as dogs are! That has always been easier in this house, and the cats have always done fine with a new dog friend!
