Adding a third cat to our family?

My husband and I want to get another cat.

We currently have two, Audrey who is 8 and Harlow who is 4.

We live in a 3 bedroom apartment. We have two bathrooms and one bathroom is where we keep their litter box. If we get another cat we will get two new extra large litter boxes.

Is three cats too many? We don't want to come across as "weird cat people"but we adore our cats and want another!

    while and in case you have the newborn your cats may well be older yet no longer historical so the difficulty with taking good care of your newborn and dealing the cat to the vets could be decrease than in the adventure that your cats have been on the extremes of age communities. in case you will upload yet another cat on your loved ones then now's the time to accomplish that. in my view, i admire cats from shelters and might particularly have a cat this is 'in the mixture' and unique than get hold of cat that already has some form of care. A kitten in a save possibly has a extra valuable survival possibility than one in the arms of animal administration. the 1st photos and not having worms are the least of my concerns while thinking introducing yet another animal into the cat family contributors. i might by no capacity settle for an animal that has examined helpful for FIV or the different communicable illnesses. whether you have indoor in basic terms cats they might in specific circumstances escape sooner or later and are available into touch with different animals. Prevention works the ideal while observed with screening. be sure the labs are all carried out and then for the sake of risk-free practices get your cat chipped. If the cost does not contain id and screening then it extremely is not well worth it and you're able to take your business enterprise someplace else. merely evaluate the risk-free practices of your newborn while/in case you have one and picture with regard to the emotional wellbeing of your present cats while introducing new contributors to the family contributors. in my view, i think of three cats is pushing it slightly for a 2 mattress room...having suggested that i comprehend people who handle with 5 in a similar subject so it extremely is fairly approximately what you may shield and what's suited on your living subject (bear in mind this might replace).

    Cats are great. If you get another cat you should make cat videos and upload them on YouTube. That way you can have fun while getting famous on youtube.
