I've been strongly considering getting a second cat!! This pic is awesome. I just don't know how my cat would like another one. I hope they would end up chilling together like this

If it helps, the cow colored one, Snuggles, is OG and he HATES other cats. It's been about 9 years since we got #2, Melon, and they still keep distance. Then we got Fran three years ago in the hopes her and Melon would be buddies... nope. And yet, despite none of them being particular fans of each other, in a way it's like they are happiest together, just at a safe distance away.

Do it!!!!!!!

I’ve seen cows that are colored like all three of those cats.

Ok, fair, im referring to the white spotty cow sized one.

Now cow colored I've seen, but cow sized??? not even lions are that big

I have found it varies wildly by cat.

Cats usually eventually tolerate each other, but it's unlikely they'll like each other.

If you get bonded cats they may. Ours sleep together on the couch but one of them still likes to get a few slaps in when she has a chance.
