Whats the difference in personality between male and femal cats2007-11-25 12:29:54

I have a boy already and am looking for a companion for him. Should I get another boy cat or girl cat?

Answers:

In my personal experience I have found that male cats are more affectionate than females. The only thing I would recommend is to get a kitten because it will be less a threat and the adjustment should go smoother. Sometimes mixing adult cats together turns into a battle!

Either way, be prepared for hissing and territoriality on the part of your first cat. It's normal and will diminish with time.

They say you should get the same sex

If you get a female, have them both fixed so there's no chance of allowing the male to spray and the female to get pregnant. But if you get a male, again, get both fixed. Dont want them to spray or have unwanted pregnant cats around the neighbourhood!

Get a girl cat. but get them fixed.. I have 3 boys and 1 girl.. she is the mother of one of the boys and ' wife ' to another.. I know sounds silly but watching them some times..they are an old married couple. She keeps the discipline in the pack.

If you introduce another male you might have fur flying.. and lets face.. what would u prefer. !

Males will tend to be more affectionate toward the owners. Females, a little stand offish, but will still cuddle when they fel like it.

My female cat, Charmin, died at age 22.

It has been my experience that boy cats are a lot nicer and affectionate that girl cats. Girl cats seem to be.well.bitchy. I personally would stick to the male cats. Just make sure both are updated on their shots before you put them in the same room.

I find most cats are affectionate, but if you overbear them with too much attention or force them to be affectionate, they will most likely not be. You have to let them come to you, and don't over do it, leave them wanting more!

males tend to be more affectionate. probably get another male.

Male cats are more affectionate, female cats are more independant.

In my personal experience (as well as things I've heard from many others) male cats are generally more affectionate. Also, every male cat I've ever owned always seemed to have more of a personality than any of the females I've owned. Females tend to have an indifferent personality a lot of the time.
