My sister has shown in interest in adopting a kittie. Her bf instructored her to get a male because he said they were friendlier. I worked for a vet and currently house sit for many kitty households and think she should pick the cat for the personality not the gender. What do you guys think?

I think she should get 2 so they can each have a friend :howdy:

it depends on the cat......my cat is a male and he is only lovey when he wants attention. A coworker of mine has both and the female is the friendlier of the two.

Her cat will have a doggie friend too! She is going to take the dog when/if she goes to meet the cat to make sure things go well. The dog is a wuss.

So cute! They kinda have similar coloring. I love little pugs. We used to have one board at the vet all the time named Mrs. Piggy. She was one of my favorites.

:yeahthat:

We've had many cats, and there doesn't seem to be a gender-specific trend as to which ones are sweet.

If they are fixed it's all the same. Having 4 cats myself, I can assure you---they have personalities all their own. It doesn't matter whether they are male or female.

I'm Baaaack!
I've always had friendly male cats, We got pandora a while ago, and she wasn't only mean, she was down right vicious! We also have kiwi who is a complete idiot but firendly lunatic


I vote a male cat is a safer bet for friendlyness!

Better make sure they're declawed before you try that. (Or shoot them first.)

Pick the kitten based in their individual personality and not their sex.

When I went kitty shopping, the Well Pet Center had some female kittens that were scared of their own shadow. They would run and hide, bury their head in your arms, etc. The next place I went to was a mennonite nursery who happened to be giving away kittens that day. When I walked up to the box, there was one kitten left, and she looked up and meow'd at me like "where in the heck have you been - I've been waiting and picked over all day."

Needless to say, she is now the queen of the house.
