cat behavior

I have a 3 year old female feline and I'm wondering If she would be jealous or have some behavioral issues If I welcomed a female kitten or other female feline around the same age into the home?

Hi
well cats don't really get jealous it is more likely that there would be territory issues etc. Also it is usually advisable not to have two females together unless they were siblings.

if you do get another cat it is important that you introduce them in such a way as to reduce any tension between them.

The introduction process is described here
