I own a condo and have one dog and one cat. They get along and play all the time, but I feel like the cat is often lonely and missing a cuddling companion. He’s a rescue who was a street cat for years before I adopted him. I’ve been considering fostering or adopting another cat to give him company. Thoughts?

    What makes you think the cat is lonely?

    As someone living with multiple cats, it’s pretty rare that they will cuddle with each other. They prefer their own spaces.

      When I adopted him he was actively cuddling with other shelter cats. He always tries to get my dog to lick and cuddle him but the dog doesn’t reciprocate. I feel like he’d attach quickly to another cat.
