We have an eight year old Tortoiseshell housecat (not through choice, she was already a housecat when we got her) whom we got from a rescue centre about a year ago.
She is a lovely cat and is very gentle and sweet, but has 'Tortitude' in buckets, very vocal, very demanding and wants constant attention. If you stop stroking her she will meow until you start again. Imagine if you can Mariah Carey in cat form.
As we are out during the day, we are beginning to worry that she gets lonely and bored without us and may benefit from another cat to provide a bit of company for her. Equally we would worry that she might feel put out and resent another cat encroaching onto her territory. The last thing we would want to do is upset her now she has a settled home with us.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
