I'm after a bit of advice please. I would really like to get a new kitten this Spring but am not sure if it's the right thing to do for our circumstances. We have an 8 year old cat who is very affectionate and happy and I worry that a new kitten might change that if he resents it (he can tolerate the older cat next door who occasionally makes his way through the cat flap but a kitten is a whole other ball game!). We also have a 4 yo DS - he is able to be gentle with our cat but is excitable and noisy so the cat doesn't particularly like to be around him.
So I guess my questions are: do you think a kitten and a 4 yo is a bad idea (obviously we wouldn't leave them alone together etc)? And do you think an older cat and a kitten would be able to get along?
