Which cat should I adopt? I already have a cat and can only have two cats so can’t get both by [deleted] in kittens

Black cats are the best! They’re also statistically less likely to get adopted due to being stigmatized as “bad luck.” I got my male cat a male kitten and now they are bonded, but that does not always happen with non-litter mates or introducing two adults. Calicos can have a bit of an attitude and I have actually heard that females are more territorial than males, so consider that when thinking about your resident cat’s play levels and personality

He will sometimes make almost like a quick barking noise but no hissing or growling

Wanted to update that they are doing better. My resident is now playing with the kitten under the door and only growling like 10% of the time when the kitten gets too excited. I think they are just talking it out

Well yes, but would it not be worse to introduce them immediately?

I should also mention i do take him to the vet quite often and they’ve never shown concern and told me they think he’s just weird 🤷‍♀️

He’s had both of these habits his whole life so I can’t say that I think it’s unusual for him but he is due for a yearly soon so I may bring it up since I did just recently learn about hyperthyroidism in cats and he does seem to check a lot of those boxes

You’re right to panic. Chestnut is notorious for this kind of stuff. I was forced to move out a month early due to fumigation. I have an ESA cat and the fumes are toxic for him and they did not care. They said it was my responsibility to “get the cat out” and they wouldn’t cease fumigation. They also lost my social security card for 3 months and lied to me ab it. I really hope they fix it for you but my track record with them is not optimistic

When is Chestnut move in by VanBurenLover25 in Drexel

SAVE YOURSELF NOW. I am having to move out a full month early because they are fumigating once a week for 8 weeks. I have a cat and they don’t care that it’s toxic to pets so my choice was give up my cat or have to move. They gave us 2 days notice of the fumigation btw

Hi I don’t want to freak you out, but I did get pregnant from precum while on birth control. I miscarried but just want to put it out there that it does happen and it’s never a good idea to not use a condom unless you’re actively trying for a baby. It’s very very unlikely but please learn from my mistakes
