If I get two kittens, will they mostly play with each other and forget about the humans?

Question

btw, if i do get two, it'll probably be a male and a female, from the same litter.

Answer 1

NO way! They always knows who feeds them! Plus they could have very different personalitys and one may want your affection and the other one may be the 'don't touch me' type of cat. They'll see you as the mother cat so they won't forget you exist or anything.

Answer 2

I had always wanted a very young kitten but my apt building would not allow it. When I finally moved this woman came to Petsmart (where my roommate worked) and told her she had found 2 little kittens on the back of a car.
I only intended to get a female but when I went to see them I couldn't separate them, it was too heartbreaking.

So I got them both, a male and a female, and they absolutely LOVE each other. When they're bored they play with each other, when they're about to fall asleep or just woke up they spend maybe half an hour licking and grooming each other.
Watching them play and chase each other is more entertaining than any tv show or movie. I am really glad I got them both.

They have completely different personalities although they were raised the same. One is very loving and the other one is more independent.

However they have NEVER, ever, ever ignored me or my boyfriend or any friens or family that comes in the house. They are very curious and they will play with whoever is holding a toy. They will NOT ignore you except when they are in "play mode" as I call it, which is when they are so interested in just playing that there will be no cuddling. But no, in my opinion and experience, if you raise them with love they will never ignore you.

I just recently got 2 kittens both male, theyr personalitys are like day and night one is quite active wile the other is more dosile but they get along great, for naw. Being both boys I expect problems later when they begin to hit rutt (puberty). they play with each other alot but demand human attention too. if we dont play with them when they ask they get quite demanding and start pawing at feet or niblibg on toes. the only problem I see is a male and female from the same litter could end up breeding without your knowing and then you have a BIG problem on hand. Ive seen what inbreeding can do it, aint pretty and you could lose your female in the prosess. so please get them fixed. it can also depend on the breed of cat some breeds are active or mean and some breeds are more loving or skittish. with a mix breed you can never tell for sertin it depends on on what trate it carrys more of. sometimes they can change after they hit puberty. going from loving,& sweet to mean & moody. Ive had several cats like that, they changed as they got older. but for the most part they stay the same they just lose ther kitten antics. Good Luck & Injoy Your New Babys!!!!!

Answer 4

The two Kittens will play with each other and not forget you. Now how you bring them up Depends alot on you. You must tell them to be nice No fighting. I just brought in a stray and even though they are older they understand. So start out training them young and it will help in the long run. Now don't forget to get them Spayed unless you want More Kittens?!
You are NOT going to have any free time available until they get older. So you must have patience and LOTS OF LOVE, because your going to need it.

Answer 5

No way ... they will keep each other company, but they will want you to give them plenty of attention, too! Cats love human attention, and having two cats who come from the same litter is a great way to have twice the fun :-)

A guy at my work has just got brother and sister rag doll kittens and they are so sweet. When you go to the door, they are looking out the window at you and they run up and start playing straight away. They are gorgeous!

(Can I recommend to get them desexed/spayed/neutered early, so that they do stay adorable and cute.)

I'm jealous, I want kittens TOO! (But I think my two troublesome cats would object, lol) :-D

Have heaps of fun, I know you will :-)

Answer 6

Not at all....I was worried about this when I adopted two 8-week old litter mates a couple years ago. They do love playing with each other, but crave the petting and attention that I give them. If anything, they kind of fight for my attention, and one will get jealous if the other is in my lap for too long. Plus having more than one kitty is a wonderful way to keep them stimulated and not lonely when you're gone at work.

Answer 7

Well no . I've had many kittens and never did they ignore the human , as long as you give them lost of TLC . But my cats love playing with each other. I have 4 , all one litter and they grew up and they still run around and play together. Just make sure you get them neutered and spayed!

Answer 8

I believe it depends on the sex of the two kittens. If it is two male cats, chances are they will be too busy playing with each other. If it is two female cats, they will fight on and on. If it a female and a male, the chances of them fighting over the human's lap is 7/12.

Answer 9

They won't forget about you but they will forget about attacking furniture, curtains and anything they are not supposed to get into for the most part (they will the odd time but not as much). I have had single kittens and they get bored too easy and can be quite destructive. We got a brother and sister last time and it was so easy. They kept each other occupied, I only lost one candle holder this time around verses when my 12 year old cat was a kitten I lost entire ceramic collections from him exploring when he was bored.

Love them, they will love you!

Answer 10

Not at all. We have two kittens and though they play madly with eachother, they are also very affectionate and love sitting on your lap while you watch TV or cuddle beside you in bed. They love everyone and play with everyone (especially if you have some string). I'm so glad we kept these two out of our litter of 4. They are so much fun to have in the house. Don't forget to spay/neuter them though!

Answer 11

well.. they probably will. They will be very hung-up on humans and concentrate on the other kitten, playing with each other, trying to fight for their goal- to get the Name of "King of the House". I have seen it happen many times. Well, it rellay depends if u want a kitten that pays all the attention it has for you, or occasionally says a little meow. Good luck!
