i’ve never kept cats but i feel like 3 is a fine amount to have. 4 is a little much though.
- You have a cat.
- Cat needs a friend.
- You have a lot of cats.
- Crazy cat lady confirmed.
I’m at 2 and really need to aim higher.
Understandable, look at that handsome face.
Hard for me to understand people having several pets. I had one and it was somewhat demanding
The threshold that someone considers “too many animals” is always the number they have plus one.

For us it’s feet
Pet feet cannot outnumber human feet, full stop. Otherwise you lose control and are no longer in charge.
It’s a working theory but so far has been accurate.
I see a couple of flaws
- Nobody who lives alone is allowed a pet
- If you have a toddler, in this rule that enables you to expand the number of pets, but I’d say a toddler adds to rather than eases the load
A person living on their own could have any number of fish, a single bird, any number of snakes, etc.

Does one cat only have two feet or do two cats have three?
Or does one human have 4?

Depending on the pets, sometimes two can be less work than one. They entertain each other and play together, resulting in less destruction and less demand for attention from their owner. That probably all goes out the window with more than two though!
