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.
Ok so you date two men now? Or are you talking about cats?
Both, of course.
Still a better love story than Twilight.
… Jesus Christ the sound of this scene is embedded in my head.
This is the og Ninja Gaiden, right?
Yup! From the NES version.
One of the hardest goddamn games ever made. Broke a few controllers over this one.
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.
You’re lucky, I wish my bathroom had a couch
You are not supposed to know about the cuddling.
Everybody was kung fu fighting!
Those cats were fast as lightning.
Was a little bit frightening.
I can tell you from experience that a third will not make things better.
“get 4 cats”, got it.
Well timed shot 😁
yep my “companion” cat and my first cat don’t figh but they ignore each other to the max. lol Some times they hiss but thats all. They really don’t like 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.
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
Tbf the oldest one I found in a box, in the rain, with one of her paws badly injured. In addition to the injury she also had sporotricosis, a horrible cat skin disease) but it was neutered and had a collar. She is very afraid of everything, people, sounds, rain… May be she is too trumatized to be friendly. But she is a love bug and it’s the queen for most of her life
I was definitely lucky to have a perfect storm where they were just kittens ~ a month apart in age, and i had only had the older one for 2 weeks when i saved the second. Mine are also abnormally social and friendly cats. I’m just saying that even cats that are best friends will still wrestle and rough house with each other, and sometimes even fight, same as kids will fight with their siblings.
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.
I am the companion cat that chases my cat around the house, he loves that shit

Reminds me of this Perry Fellowship Bible strip
This is Sparta
At least they don’t look bored.
“First rule about Bite Club…”
Looks like that wizard fight from Lord of the Rings.
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.
