    I thought getting a second dog would keep the first entertained so he was following me around, dependent on me 100% of the day.

    Now, I just have two dogs that want to watch me pee. -_-

    Love them both though! Don’t regret it.

      They’re making sure you safe while at your most vulnerable. Ever wonder why they glance at you real quick while pooping? “You got my back, right?”

    I brought a second adult male into the home with an established adult male. They didn’t bond (despite the new one trying) until we moved to a new apartment. Neither had a stake on territory and they were both scared of the new environment. I found them cuddled in the coat closet after several days. They were cool from then on.

    Our cats fight and hiss at each other and “hunt” each other when humans are around, but I have woken up numerous times to go to the bathroom and they are cuddling together on the couch.

      I too was naïve enough to think that since my girl was shy around people I needed to solve that by getting her a companion. I wasn’t aware growling was something cats did until making that mistake. It’s especially weird because I don’t think I ever heard her hiss. Her growl was very intimidating to me, but not to the kitten. Okay little man, I’m not sure she wants to play today.

      I think she was mad about that decision for a long time.

      Mine were immediately best friends, but they wrestle with each other all the time. They cuddle, groom, explore, and squabble all day with each other

      Mine are brothers and even then, they always try to groom each other and it immediately and infallibly turns into chasing each other around the house. Otherwise they’re chums, but as soon as the tongue is out it’s rumble time.

      Our cats also ignore each other, but they also have this game where they chase each other around the house. They seem to enjoy it.

    If they’re wrestling rather than hissing it’s fine really. Our two play at grabbing each other by the throat until one of them has had enough and runs off, and then later you find them sitting together but ignoring one-another.
