    You could always foster a rescue kitten who is looking for a permanent home and see how Kurt reacts. If he is ok with it, you can keep it, and if not, you can find it a new home.

After a week of initial hostility from the new cat, they are love bugs now and lick each other. I’d recommend Petfinder because they will tell you if the cat in question gets along with other cats.

    Some cats like being by themselves. I have one of those. I had 3 cats, but when I moved out, I only took 2 because I knew the one cat wanted to be the only cat, and I was right.

    I have an 11 year old black cat who's quite reserved and quiet, but then recently we adopted a kitten who's so hyperactive that it just clashes with my senior cats personality.

      you're describing my girlfriend's house situation. she had a foster from the streets, VERY aggressive, very hateful, she lets me pet her LITERALLY once per like hour or 2. if you pet her like twice in a row she will attack fearlessly.
      and tthen like last year or 2 years ago she got another cat, way younger, has that jovial energy, keeps attacking her and shit, and maria (the older one) doesn't really fuck with mila (the younger one) every day, but sometimes they will be sleeping close to one another (never touching i dont think) and they kinda have that like love hate relationship.
      but honestly even with the surprise attacks and all that, i feel like maria is better off with mila because of all the hours that the house is empty. regardless of how much they like being alone, having someone else there for like the 16h that we spend outside is good for them

    Heyy,
    I would look at Kurt's personality how tolerant he is towards another cat. He may not like the cat or even attack and hurt him (which can happen with cats). Of course it can also be that he needs a friend and he enriches his life (after his owner of course haha). I also have a cat and am considering getting another cat. Mine is a very tolerant cat, but I have often seen other cats attack and hurt him. That's why I decided not to get a cat for now.
    What i would definitely advise you to do is: Don't suddenly bring another cat next to Kurt. He should get used to him slowly because cats are very attached to their territory
    Good luck ☺️🐱

      In nature both big and small kitties are almost always solitary creatures, with an exception for lions. They can certainly learn to coexist with other cats even learn to like them. However, cat's vert rarely actually NEED friends. And in some cased bringing another cat into the household can do more harm than good to the kitty too. So sure, it could work...we have more than one cat ourselves. And while they get along and such, I wouldn't call them buddies either. So yeah, a lot of other pets usually do better with buddies and some shouldn't be alone. Like gunieapigs for example, some birds and such. But pets like cat's can be just as happy, and more often happier if they're an only cat who get's all the attention from the humans.

Luckily the cat friend I got him ended up on my friend’s ranch & he was MADE to be a ranch cat whereas Mufasa wants nothing to do with outside. So I think it depends on the cat 🐱 To me Kurt seems very happy being the only cat cuz he has you & you really give him all love & play & attention he needs. He is completely connected to you.

      Yeah I can only imagine how difficult that must have been.. getting 2 additional cats after you’ve had one cat for 14 years is certainly not the best idea.. it’s highly encouraged for cat owners to either adopt/buy cats in a pair or if you have one cat and want another, you should do it as early on in your cats life as possible as it’s far easier for them to adjust when they’re young.

    Some cats like to have companions, others do not. Especially if they have spent a huge part of their life as the only pet in the house, they may not mingle with other pets easily. Thas why introducing a friend is always better at kittenhood. That being said, adult cats can infact befriend new cats/kittens, if introduction is done properly. However the change in personality you mentioned is a very likely thing to happen, whether or not introduction goes well.
    If you do get a second cat then for about a week keep it in a room Kurt doesn't hang out much in. Then slowly Introduce scent by shaping their blanket or a single toy.
    Later during feeding times, food can be kept on either side of the door, thereby making both cats associate the other with something positive.
    After a while of doing this, you can finally let them see each other for a span of few minutes under your monitoring. Make sure they have plenty of food so they don't feel like their food is threatened and that they have places they can climb onto , if they feel threatened by the cats presence. You can also play with them while doing this.
    If all goes well, then you can do this everyday and gradually increase the time they spend together until you feel that they are fully used to eachother and would not attack.
    In that case you can let them spend some time without monitoring and gradually allow them to spend more time without monitoring.
    If they show aggression, immediately separate them and give them more time just eating food on either side of the door until you feel like you can reintroduce them again.

  • @sadiedol4413
    @sadiedol4413 Год назад +3

    Introducing cats takes time. In the foster homes I bring cats too, we start by bringing over a blanket or toy that smells like the foster cat so the resident cat can smell it and learn the scent, become comfortable with it for a few days. After that, we choose a room in the house (usually a spare bedroom) the foster can stay in for maybe 5-7 days so they can hear and smell each other. Then we'll open or remove the door and install a diy baby-blocker of sorts. Tbh the best is if you can afford some plexy glass or a big sheet of clear plastic and drill some holes in it. Then they can see each other in addition to smell. But not everyone has that option so sometimes we'll do "monitored visits" where we bring the resident cat in the room the foster cats in and we do whatever makes resident cat comfortable. For example, I'll let resident cat sit on my lap and pet them while they observe the foster cat. Letting them sit on me in the new cats presence is like the feline way of saying "mine". It was their house first, so to convince them to get along with the new cat we need to establish new cat isn't a threat and trying to steal their human or their space. We'll do visits like that once a day for a week or so and then move up to a next level that's more specific to your situation. Either your cat adapts quickly and will explore the room- smell new cats stuff, interact with new cat- or theyll shy away. Depending on what they do, I'll either leave them to spend more time together, I'll open the door completely for them to wander out, or I'll put a cat tent in the living room or a room the resident cat spends most their time in. The cat tent is great for if resident cat needs more time to adjust- this way the new cat can be seen and heard and smelled in resident cats space without being intrusive or "stealing" their territory. These methods work with any aged cat you bring into the home. But keep in mind that bringing a kitten into an adult cats home is different than bringing an adult cat into an adult cats home. Kurt could adopt the kitten, befriend it, or find it annoying or even a threat altho that last one is least likely tbh. Kurt could befriend an adult cat or even develop a relationship of sorts but that typically takes longer bc a cat of equal or greater size is more of a threat. Personally, I would suggest a cat that's calm and physically smaller. Could be female or male. Idk how Kurt reacts to different genders- has he ever met other cats? Maybe you have friends with cat(s) you could do a test run with? Or maybe you could try fostering a cat or kitten until they find a forever home (usually only between 2 weeks and 4 months). That would allow you to witness his reaction and prep him for someone new entering his territory

  • @serious-sarcasm
    @serious-sarcasm Год назад +4

    It really depends on the cat. Personally, I’ve owned cats that never ever got along with any other cats no matter how much time had passed. I also own a cat that needed a companion even if he didn’t originally have one (he had some major anxiety and adopting another cat has helped him out a lot). I’d put some real consideration into this as it’s a pretty big deal to bring another pet home. Also, I would do some research on the health of another cat if you are considering one. Cats can easily transfer certain illnesses to one another so make sure you find out their bloodwork before you adopt! Don’t accidentally put Kurt at risk. If he’s a good, healthy boy then make sure his future roommate (if you get one) is also good and healthy.

    A second cat can provide companionship and reduce feelings of loneliness and boredom for your current cat, especially when you're not at home. As an owner of SIX cats, I can prove this.
    But the decision to get a second cat should be based on your cat's individual personality, your living situation, and your willingness to commit to providing a happy and harmonious environment for both felines.

    I can relate to this scenario, I got my first cat in August 2019 and until November 2021 he was an only "child" and was totally reliant on me. I didn't have the luxury to work remotely or not at all so I was gone 10-12 hours a day. I started to notice him changing like losing interest in play, becoming lethargic and depressed. I ended up adopted an 8 year old orange medium hair cat from a foster home of a rescue organization. The perfect answer for both as they both came to life and today they are besties and inseparable. I pay attention equally individually and together but they also have each other. Best decision.

My resident cat basically raised her and took care of her.

    Kurt actually isn’t aggressive to Kurt number two - that’s how cats play fight! Like dogs, he isn’t being vocal, doesn’t have his hair raised, and isn’t showing signs of distress while ‘attacking’ him. That’s a possible indicator that Kurt might do well with another feline buddy who would be happy to engage in his antics.
    Of course always play it safe though. Maybe you can arrange for Kurt to meet another cat that is friendly in a controlled environment. Also as many people have suggested, you could foster a kitten temporarily (foster fail is always an option too if you fall in love lol).
    Some cats love others cats, some don’t. We adopted both of my cats together when they were kittens and they used to play all the time but now one of them is always jealous of the other lol

She hissed a lot and acted differently. But one I started feeding them together/near each other they started getting comfortable. So don’t be afraid to get Kurt a friend and you can always try to resolve behavioral issues with your vet. I definitely don’t regret my decision.

    If you want another cat but you're worried that it'll stress Kurt out, foster a kitten for a week (a kitten instead of an older cat because it'll stress him out less i won't see it as much of a threat.) Introduce them like you'd introduce him to a cat you'd be keeping permanently - a lot of positive reinforcement until they start to get comfortable around eachother. For every positive interaction Kurt has with the kitten, reward him. Don't expect him to like the foster kitten at first but if he starts showing signs of being comfortable around another cat and it's not negatively changing his personality then it might be good to get another cat for him. Always remember to foster from a place that allows their foster animals to be with other pets!

    I feel like for the reason you stated - HOW reliant he became on you emotionally is EXACTLY why you should get another. I used to have so much guilt when I’d leave the house and my poor baby boy was left all alone. Without fail he’d be waiting at the door, meowing frantically at my return 💔 You’re right it needs to be the RIGHT kitten, but NO kitty is going to change your guys dynamic. Me and my first are still glued to each others hips - But my baby gingy that we got when he was 1, is now everything to us, too. My older boy will still put him down when he gets too frisky 😅 But also grooms, teaches, and keeps him in order too ❤️ Both you AND Kurt have plenty more love to give ❤️❤️❤️

    Cats are very jealous creatures, but I’m pretty sure if you add a kitten (not an adult cat, Kurt will definitely hate it) he’ll grow to be fond of it.

      My friend's cat did not get used to the new kitten even after months. His personality changed and a kitten is annoying to the cat. Kurt seems like the chill type and doesn't want to be annoyed by a new kitten but yes he shouldn't adopt an adult cat

    I never got a second cat because I felt the same way, but cats naturally hangout with other cats (if they like them), but they’re not solo creatures. You can always foster and see how the dynamic goes.

    If you get another cat, Abram, it should be a kitten. Kurt will have an easier time bonding with the kitten, and the kitten's energy will rebound on to Kurt and make him super playful.

    Having a second cat is good, it helps with companionship provided your cat isn't highly territorial. I would recommend getting a kitten so Kurt doesn't see them as a direct threat to his space. All of the cats my parents had were territorial, but chill with each other because they didn't see them as competition.

    I recommend getting a cat smaller than Kurt so he will still know that he’s dominant. It also takes about a week for cats to get used to each other.

    Having more than one cat is tricky. Cats are generally solitary animals, so there's always a high chance of them not getting along with one another.

    From experience a new cat can change your cat a lot for the better or the worse. But in my experience it was mostly good. And Kurt does have a lot of separation anxiety when he’s not with you so I think if another cat works out it could help him with his loneliness.
    Kurt might be wary or even scared at first if a new cat but that doesn’t always mean they will be like that forever. It may take time.
    But you gotta watch them closely cause they may be uneasy. You don’t want Kurt to feel violated or unsafe cause the new cat is in his spots or something. But also to prevent a intense cat fight.
    But I personally think Kurt would enjoy a new cat friend to keep company.
    My two cats that were at first very much disliked each other now love each other and I couldn’t imagine them without each other.
    But it took time with my two, and they did hiss and growl. But we made sure they could have separate locations if they wanted to be alone and completely away from the other. There needs to be a safe space for both cats so they are able to hide and not worry about the other cat intruding. Like you said they are territorial.
    But you’ll never know unless you try!
    And it could go perfectly and Kurt adopts them immediately 😂

    Kurt is a very good cat I love your videos. If you plan on getting another cat for him, I really agree that it should be done at the right time! Introducing Kurt to the new cat would be the most important part, there are lots of tips for that to be done the best way possible. I have experience only with my old dog and my kitten, so I can't give you the best tips I'm afraid, but in the begining their interactions can be a little complicated, but if you get another cat or a kitten, patience is the key ^^

    I took my cat to the vet. He asked questions like would I get another cat bc I love the idea of 2 cats, but my cat is the same as Kurt (personality). The vet told me to get a male kitten. With my cat, but I think you should get a cat when Kurt is older and maybe he won’t rely on you so much anymore.

    BTW we need to have a little fun lay date with our cats !

  • @sallymon3752
    @sallymon3752 Год назад +1

    about the second cat, you can first separate them in different rooms, so kurt get his room (preferably his favorite spot) and the other cat gets another. after a while you can slowly introduce them together, maybe start by getting the two on opposite sides of one door, letting them get used to each other's scents. once they no longer show signs of aggression and start playing with each other through the crack of the door, you can try opening the door just a bit so they can see each other. make sure to moderate them so they dont end up fighting 👍
    reminder that im in no way an expert 😅 this is just all i've read online. im sure there are many people in the comment sections who know better than i do

    I recommend a sister for Kurt, not a tiny kitten, but maybe 4 to 6 months. Then he can play with her and not get her worn out. Our orange dude Oscar got a sister who was 6 months. He was four years. At first, it was " what is that thing?" But they do play, fuss and generally act like siblings. He taught her how to hunt mice! Kurt is pretty chill dude so a sweet little girl could be good for him.

    I'm almost always all for getting 2 cats (it's a friend, someone to wrestle with, 24/7 entertainment, something else that moves in the house when humans are asleep, etc), BUT in rare instances when the human is a capable of working from home and being the cat's buddy all day (and the cat LOVES it's human), then it's not a bad thing to have 1 cat😊

  • @alphabug9

    From my experience, it is easier to get a second cat if the second cat is a kitten. Things can go pretty wrong (like territorial spraying, not using litter boxes anymore, etc.) if the wrong adult cat is introduced.

    I know this is a little late but maybe this will help other people, I had two cats and decided to get a third and wel, 1) they are six and I got a kitten so there’s kind of an issue there because he’s high energy and wants to play with them all the time but he doesn’t pick up on them telling him when they get aggravated, and so I’m trying to break him of that habit because he tries to continue to play with them and they get annoyed and run off (because they’re too nice and they won’t put him in his place); 2) I have noticed that they are very highly jealous, and even though they will groom him when he’s calm, and they get along with him for the most part, they still get super jealous; so the instant I show him any attention they are right there meowing at me, wanting me to show them attention instead. I think that if you choose to get a different cat with Kurt, having the bond that you have with him. I think it will stress that bond because he’s now going to have to share you with another cat, or different species, and while he may end up getting along with the new cat, he’s going to continue to be jealous and upset about it. my cats aren’t necessarily upset because I was very sick when I got them (I was OK enough to get them when I did) but then I got worse, and so I wasn’t able to give them the same amount of attention that you gave Kurt while they were small kittens). While they still love me, and they’re close to me, we don’t have as close of a bond as you have with Kurt. That being said, I do think it would put a damper on your relationship with Kurt if you were to get another cat, or even another animal but different species, hence stressing the bond that you have with him. As long as he has plenty of enrichment while you are gone, it shouldn’t bother him to be alone, because he clearly does not have separation anxiety. Hope that helps.

    1. What if u just like bring a baby orange cat (Kurt jounior) so he could take care of him
    2. Take him to cat cafe and see what cat he likes
    3. Take him to cat cafe to make him more used to cats
    I hope you make a video about maybe using these suggestions and I’ll probably see u there! 😊

    Try fostering a kitten and see how Kurt reacts. It’s a short term commitment to socialize the kitten before it’s ready for adoption, which is a great service in itself. If things work out, Kurt will have a new sibling. If not, you can return the kitten to the shelter.

    You should get Kurt a friend, and you can test if he likes having another cat around by just bringing him to other cats and see how he reacts. If he's not interested, then you should not get another cat but if he likes being around other cats, you should totally get him another one!
    And Kurt fighting the substitute is so funny😂

    Btw. cats can be reliant on someone specifically because there is no second cat. I would try it, but you nerd to find one with a character that would fit well with Kurt’s and it has to happen slowly (just short contacts through a net or a door etc.).

  • @sxafedele914
    @sxafedele914 Год назад

    i think if you want a second cat for kurt i think you should have kurt meet a different cat (kinda like a cat playdate) and see how he responds. if he really doesn't like it then he should be any only kitty but if he enjoys the presence of any other cat then that will give you your answer. obviously the best way to find out it's letting them tell you! i have two cats and used to have three previous to these two (i grew up with the first three) and my three cats loved each other so much but they were off the streets. we adopted all of our cats older than kurt so they weren't as attached to us so that might change how likely he will want to be with another cat. I think a trial run would give you some sort of indication on how he feels. seeing as kurt is very dependent on you i think again he's the only way you'll know! I hope this helps.
