I realize that I love my cat.

But I want another one for her.

Should I go for it?

I feel like it will help be a new beginning for me.

I just feel bad about something and guilt eats me up right now. I, well, caused a problem for my own Mom and have hurt our relationship. And I realize that now. We've talked about it some. We're fine, right now, but I... feel the guilt, dammit.

Regardless, I want to at least help my current cat by giving her a new companion.

Ugh, I feel silly saying it.

Gotcha. My first cat is still less than a year old. I'm hoping to get them to get used to each other quickly enough. But yes, they can be territorial or so I've heard. I'm hoping that my first one won't be lonely. I live in a residential home, but it's big enough. I mean, it's a good size, I think; not like my previous huge house but still good. And my cat is pretty playful.

yeah hopefully a playmate will keep the kitty busy. I felt bad for my first cat being all alone too and that's what pushed me to get a second on.

Like clockwork, I guess. I think it's the same for a lot of cat owners.

I suspect so :)
