We have cats... her co-worker had a cat that got out and had kittens and now we have one of them. Its adorable and its really taking a liking to me but it looks exactly like my old cat. Goatee and all

No, it isn't the cat's fault it is the re-incarnation of your other cat. Kitty is adorable, keep her.

But maybe you need to look at kitten with good memories of your other kitty. A living being is so much more than their death. That is one moment in their lifetimes, not all of it.

Perhaps kitty is here to remind you of that.

We will have including this kitten...ready? 3 cats and 80lb dog a full aquarium (saltwater now) a frilled.dragon 2 rabbits a sugar glider 2 gerbils a ferret and a bird.

Why so many animals?!?!??!

I don't mind the kitten even though I do because of well you know but how can I get it into her mind that this is too many animals for a 2 bedroom apartment....I guess that is more my q. I like the kitten a lot lol

Ha! At one point I had 5 cats and 2 dogs.

Are all of these her's or both of yours? If this many critters is the result of only one person I'd be a little worried about the trend.

BTW - This whole conversation is freaking me out. To be a downer, my cat has lymphoma and I'm probably going to stop chemo treatments and let nature take it's course. My reminder to you that your cat is more than how she died, it clicked for me too. I will miss my kitty horribly but I will focus on her life.

The frilled lizard is mine and we recently had a cat that died of kidney failure which his sister also has so we have to IV fluids and kd and nf food I offered my 08 felt da to keep him alive aka kidney transplant but his sister is doing fine caught it much sooner. The rest of the animals are hers haha

Animals will love you when no one else will. I love them all!

If I wasn't living in an apartment I'd have a dog too but I have a two pet limit so for now it is my two kitties.

Ultimately if you can afford to care for all of them, they are healthy and have plenty of room to live happily then you don't have too many.
