The number of cats you keep depends on your preference; there are benefits to both.
The benefits of owning a cat:
1. Low cost. After all, cats have small appetites and can't eat much. The expenses are fixed throughout the year and are within the financial range of most cat owners.
2. Cats will also become more clingy. Since there is only one cat in the house, its world revolves around its owner. Therefore, the owner is its closest companion and family member. It can only play and interact with its owner, so it will become more clingy.
3. If you have a cat, you only need to put a litter box at home. The cat owner only needs to scoop the litter box once a day. Moreover, the cat's poop is not much, so the smell in the house will not be too strong.
4. Cats don't shed much. Most cats shed, but if you only have one cat, the amount of shedding in your home is manageable, and you don't need to spend too much time cleaning up the cat's fur.
The benefits of having multiple cats:
1. In multi-cat households, there is no need to worry about the cats not being affectionate towards you, because the cats will use all sorts of little tricks to get your attention, hoping that you will pay attention to them. The cats will even compete for your attention, making you feel needed.
2. In multi-cat households, when the cat owner goes out, the cats have companions to play with, so they don't feel lonely, which is a good thing.
