Should I Adopt One or Two?

This question is asked second to which sex is best!  I thought I would answer that question right here on the site for those considering adopting two kittens.  We recommend adopting two cats if possible, for many reasons :

Two cats can keep each other company during the day, which means less destructive behavior while you are away.  Not to mention, they don't get lonely.  It is a fact, that if you bring home two kittens at the same time, they will be bonded and you won't have the integration issues you find when adding a cat to your family at a later date.  Usually cats don't warm to new additions as easily as dogs.  It can take weeks to months for the new kitten to be accepted.  So if you are considering having two cats, why not adopt them both at the same time? 

Here are some more pros about adopting two cats:

• Two or more cats keep each other entertained and exercised---they are less likely to exhibit destructive behavior due to boredom, such as scratching furniture.

• Two cats are cleaner, they help groom each other in spots they alone miss. 

• Cats housed together have a companion, and are less likely to develop weight issues, they play!

• No need for a large yard or house, as with dogs, cats are perfect for smaller homes and apartments!

• The extra cat doesn't require much more work than just having one cat. 

• They provide social and mental stimulation---not to mention they are a blast to watch! 

• Cats will live longer and remain youthful and playful with positive interaction with a house-mate.

• We feel in the case of cats--two if better than one!

FACT: An anti cruelty law was passed in Switzerland requiring citizens purchasing dogs and cats to buy two, instead of one.  They realize the importance of stimulation for these animals, maybe we should too. 

We are more than happy to help you choose the best two kittens for your family.  We do personality and temperament testing, too!
