We have 1 14 year old cat. We'd have more, if she would put up with others. We tried it once. It didn't work. Next time we'll get 2 at once so they can grow up together. She's been up meowing at us since about 6:00 this morning.
Have you tried getting two right now? That's how we finally got newbies to work with the grouch, old cat. We got the kittens who entertained themselves and didn't care about her. Not that they don't interact. She will every once in a while "play" with them, the best she knows how. It has been so great having the two of them together that I would never again do it any other way.
Our old cat starts meowing every morning at 6am too, to get fed. It's beyond annoying as it's impossible to sleep in. My dear son and I took her out on the deck yesterday thinking maybe in her old age going outside would make her happy.
She sat there meowing to get back in, while one of the kittens sat their meowing to go out. So it didn't work.
We're going way south to a Half-Priced Books store sale. 20% off. DH is raring to go but I need coffee. I'm hoping for Chinese for lunch at the mall near there. This town is called Superstition Springs. Isn't that a cool name?

No we haven't tried it. My long term plan is to let her live out her life, replace the carpet, enjoy having clean carpet for a while, then get 2 more cats. The vet said she's very healthy for her age, so we may be stuck with old carpet for a while.
