I own a condo and have one dog and one cat. They get along and play all the time, but I feel like the cat is often lonely and missing a cuddling companion. He’s a rescue who was a street cat for years before I adopted him. I’ve been considering fostering or adopting another cat to give him company. Thoughts?

      My cat is of questionable age. The vet says 4 ish but his personality is very much “old man”. He gives zero fucks and feels more like a roommate than a pet. He plays with my Shiba all the time and the dog always lets him “win”. Otherwise he just chills up on his tower and blesses me with affection for 30 min a day right before bed. I feel bad because he loved the fellow cats in the shelter when I adopted him and I feel that he would be gentle and patient with a new cat. I think that fostering would be ideal, because worst case scenario I can keep the foster in my home office and best case scenario my cat would get a new companion.
