Brilliant advice, thank you everyone. Lots to think about!

Hi all... Thank you for the encouraging advice :-) I thought it must be doable as I know many multi-cat households, I was just a little anxious about the established relationship. MoggyinManolos... what does your bengal do? Although I have a bengal, he is not registered and I don't think...

Hi everyone, Wondering if anyone can advise. I am considering, and only considering, bringing another cat into the household. I already have two cats, who have lived here for almost four years and knew each other before that. They are both neutered tom cats (neutered late in life)...

So pleased to hear they have been prosecuted! Disgusting.

Too quick, I know, but he does tick all the boxes and I like him as a person, so fingers crossed he's the one. Fate perhaps... He's arriving later, I'll be sure to take some photos.
