Two kittens easier than one?

I've just had a home visit from the RSPCA who have given the thumbs up for us to adopt the kitten we reserved last week.

I asked if any of her siblings had become available- they were all reserved when we went last week. One of her sisters is now available so I've said we'll have them both Shock.

Am I mad or have I just made my life about easier?

Brother and sister both kept each other entertained and us too!
They have always got each other and never lonely

I had a brother/sister pair for 17 years and it was so obvious how much the leaned on each other that I swore never to have a single again. I now have 2 Siamese boys and as previous posters have said they tear round the house like it's a racecourse and then snuggle down together for a huggathon

dnamummy That pic is precious! Could be on a calendar.

They love posing but I can only really get shots of them like that as when they are manically playing they are too fast!

Lovely kittens. We got our pair just under a week ago. They're currently galloping around the living room and chasing one another, I'm not sure how we'd find the time to play with a single Cat as much as they play with one another Grin

Downsides, the double poop scooping!

You are now servant to two beauties - congratulations! They will play and comfort each other, and be warned, if anything gets broken, they will blame each other too🙀🙀

We have two sisters - they played & played as kittens but just about tolerate each other now grown up.

Often they swipe & hiss at each other for no good reason & never cuddle up, although they occasionally greet each other with face rubbing. They do work as a team however, to repel next door's arsehole cat.

Aaah lush babies!

Our 2 are 9 months old females from the same litter. One tabs, one B&W. Tabs is smaller and the chasing games often turn in to full on yowling fights with B&W making a run for it. Tabs will start to groom her wcich turns into biting.
B&W now sleeps upstairs during the day and is often booted off the sofa by Tabs.
Is this a dominance thing? Should we just leave them to it or bring B&W downstairs?
