It is not cruel to have one cat. You're saying all cats are social, that's bs, tell that to my grandads old cat Tuggs who would attack anything that wasn't him. Or my parents old cat that lived to 18 in a loving household, on her own. . Your attitude stinks - "take it from us experienced cat owners", you can't talk for all cat owners.

    I did edit it and follow up softening my stance.

    You're right though, it's just a sore spot because there are a lot of people who think that cats are independent animals by nature and can be left alone without consequence. If you have an older cat who's been alone their whole life that can be true, but virtually every cat would be happier if they were raised from a young age with a friend.
