Should I get a kitten?

[summeroccupation]

I have three cats already. Live in a big three bed flat though it has no outside space. They're 8, 18m and 6m.

My best friend took in a stray cat who had kittens. They're beautiful and I've really bonded with one - she instantly comes over to me when I visit, snuggles with me and I really love her.

Not sure if I should take her - they're about nine weeks old atm. Cost isn't a problem.

Oh my goodness!! She is gorgeous! If you don’t take her I want second dibs😍

Four cats in a flat could be quite crowded, that would be my only concern.

She has a sister looking for a home who is almost identical!

The girlie I love is in the green, sister is in the blue!

Yep, that's my concern!

Any other thoughts? 😊

If you think the four of them would get on ok then I’d be tempted to go ahead.

Most shelters are full to bursting at the moment so your friend would find it difficult to rehome them that way.

Personally I wouldn't, not if they don't have some kind access to the outside.

We had three indoors, slightly different ages to you, and when the youngest reached maturity there was a bit of tension as they were all a bit cooped up and we had a couple of fights.

Spoke to the vet and they strongly, strongly recommended letting them out. After a couple of weeks of adjustment, they are all so, so much happier. I wouldn't ever have three indoors again.

Gawd I couldn't resist that little face!😻
Has your home been set up alà Jackson Galaxy, ie lots of different levels/shelves/hidey holes/enrichment?
If so I am wondering if that would be okay?
Or move to a lovely big house with large safe outdoor space and take all the kittens....😜
