Should you get your cat a kitten?

Our honest answer is never a straight yes. A second cat isn’t equipment you add to fix a problem. But when the match is right, it’s the most effective enrichment a Bengal can get. Another cat plays back at cat speed, at 2am, when you’re asleep. Nothing in a toy box competes with that.

The new post covers what a companion actually gives your cat, the six situations where a second cat is the wrong call, and how to introduce them slowly enough that it sticks. Link in bio.

We didn’t originally set out to write a full protocol about cats chewing and swallowing toys.It started with a message from a cat parent who was worried about her aging Bengal. Her cat was 13 years old, no longer enjoyed being pet very often, and had started chewing — and occasionally trying to ...
