ScantyNebula,

I think your kitty would do well with another cat. A kitten is by far the best way to introduce a new one. I've always gotten kittens (not that I haven't taken adult cats in to try and introduce them). And kitten season is coming up SOON!!

Cats do get lonely and bored. The best thing you can do for your kitty is get him a companion.

You'll have to do it gradually. I can help you when you and Toby are ready.
