There are some things to consider if you want to get a cat if you already have an older cat. First of all, you've got to check out what your existing cat or the resident cats' temperament is like. Has that cat ever been exposed to other cats? Have you had friends, neighbors or houseguests come over? How was your cat's reaction to that? That's important. You really have got to keep that in mind.
