How many cats do you have?

[lottieandmia]

We have two and I'm thinking of getting another one - which will be the last

[IHaveBrilloHair]

Four too many

[Toddlerteaplease]

Two but which is enough in a tiny house. But still have a hankering for another.

2 but have just been offered a kitten and am tempted. would my 5 year old girls mind?

[intricatedispostion]

5 - but I do have 4 kittens. The trouble is I'm finding the process of letting them go quite difficult and may have to keep them all!

[VixenLupin]

Not enough. We have 1 - supposed to have 2 but one has rehomed himself down the road. Thinking of getting a kitten or two. Or all the kittens, everywhere.

[CatAnnoyance]

I have two, but if it was up to me I'd have more. My partner has to rein me in when it comes to cats. I'd be bringing all sorts home.

[AnneElliott]

I have 4 and it is a lot harder work than just 2! Would have more though if j had a bigger house.

[MrsLettuce]

I have two, a 10 year old and a big kitten. Considering a finding third though, they are siamese and don't do at all well as only cats...

[MrsLettuce]

Well, what I mean is siamese don't transition well from having cat friends to being only cats. As a general rule. I'm sure there are people who have an only siamese who's just fine.

• 3 adopted
  
• 2 found in garden trying to eat bird food (several years apart) - I think people may abandon cats in the forest near my house - but in the winter they starve

[Puffinity]

One, and I think she wouldn't take too kindly to having to share - it's bad enough when DH and I are talking to each other instead of to her :)

[thecatneuterer]

Currently in the region of 30 I think. But only about 21 of those are permanent residents.

[VimFuego101]

1. Too many tbh - they are more of a pack now and don't want to sit on my lap. They don't all get along and one of them pees everywhere.

[lottieandmia]

We have quite a big house so I think there is enough space for three. I love the two we have so much - I've become a cat addict! It's ironic because dd2 nagged me for a full 2 years until I gave in and now she's the one saying 'don't you think two is enough' I suppose it helps that the two we have are perfectly behaved and never have any 'accidents'.

[Fluffycloudland77]

1 but he's a noisy Bengal so one is enough.

[cozietoesie]

One at the moment - but he's an elderly Siamese who hates other cats. Really, really hates them.

[Coffeethrowtrampbitch]

We have 3 now.

We had a rescue brother and sister for 15 years. When the brother died, we got a kitten who came into season immediately.

I was very ill so we arranged to keep kitten indoors and spay once season was over. Older cat smashed off the cat flap and let kitten out, meanwhile I was hospitalised over Christmas so could not arrange for a vet visit. She had her kittens at the beginning of March.

Older cat died when the kittens she 'midwifed' were a few weeks old, and now we have the mum cat and two kittens, a boy and a girl.
Here they are, the mum is in front.

[NightWanderer]

I'd stick with 2. I have 3 and it's fine but 2 would be much easier. DD is desperate for a kitten but I think another cat would break me.

[NightWanderer]

Lovely pic! Two of mine are black and white. They're such lovely cats.

[kimlo]

2, brothers one year old. I wouldn't want anymore than that.

[lottieandmia]

Coffee - how cute!

[Becks4Saints]

I have 8

[electricflyzapper]

Just upped our number to 3.

We have 2 brothers who are not really great people cats. I did not intend getting a third, but a stray turned up (actually was run over) outside our house - unhurt - and we adopted him after a week unclaimed at the vets. He is about 4 months old and so affectionate.

Only had him 4 days. It's still very early days with the 2 older ones.
