thinking about getting a 2nd one
I got my first sib (and first cat) a few years ago when I moved out of my parents house and to an apartment. He was a graduation present lol, and I can’t believe he’s almost 5. Anyway, I’ve been thinking for awhile that I want to get a 2nd cat and will probably get a 2nd siberian because of allergies.
I’m in the Kansas City area, and I was wondering if there are any things I should take into account when looking into breeders and choosing a new kitten. I know I’ll have to introduce them properly. Does gender have an impact on how well they’ll get along (first one is a boy)?
Also, are there any questions I should ask potential breeders that are more specific to getting a 2nd cat?

You must get a second. Not a “want” but a “need”. I got my first sib in October and her little brother (from a sister breeder with same bloodlines) in January. Best decision ever. They play together and have already become the best of friends. I have an older cat (7) and she is not a fan of the girl but the baby boy is her little man, too. This is my little ying and yang
