Hi all, since becoming a cat slave a few months ago me and the OH have become smitten, since I had Cheeko I didn't want to bring 2 cats into the house incase they ganged up against him as he was gettin on a bit.
Tiffany will be an indoor parmpered princess but since Cheeko is no longer with us

we have decided to definately get another cat (ideally another young kitten).
Tiff is due to be spayed in a month or so, so I thought it was a bad idea to get a new baby incase we fell in love with a boy (don't want any accidents here) and also I don't want to get a kitten while Tiff is recovering for fear of her getting hurt by playfull paws. All in all although I can't bear to wait we have decided to wait until very early January as we are away for a week over xmas too.
What I want to know is; 1- will it be OK to get a young kitten (8 or 9 weeks) which we would really like even tho Tiff will be 7 months?
2- if it would be better to get one a similar age to her?
3- does it make a difference if the new commer is male or female?
and lastly 4- doeas anyone know any moggie breeders relatively close to me? (will travel as far south as Newcastle and as far north as Inverness).
I thought I would ask on here as everyone (the majority anyway) seem to be very responsible breeders who look after their animals very well. We would just go to a rescue centre but we called round a few before getting Tiff and none were keen to let us adopt as the cat would be kept inside (unless it was a white cat due to sun probs etc). The rescue centre we got Tiff from is now closed and I'm not sure where else to look, I wouldn't like to rehome a kitten posted in a supermarket or calssified ad or similar (BYB's etc) (although these cats need homes as much as rescue cats I don't want to encourage the people breeding them).
I'd def consider a non-registered pedigree as long as it was within a reasonable budget (and wouldn't turn his or her nose up at princess Tiff the majestic mog
I need more fur!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
