Sing along with me now. Two cats are better than one, they’re twice the fun, ask anyone, a second cat can be second-to-none. Thank you, thank you. That was my lovingly done adaptation of ‘How I Met Your Mother’s’ hit song ‘Two Beavers Are Better Than One,’ slightly changed to better fit our mutual love of gorgeous felines and beautiful floofs.

And, truly, two cats really are better than one, and we’ve got the proof. Bored Panda has collected some of the most fun, wholesome, and hilarious photos of cat duos goofing and lazing about, all to heal and soothe your souls, dear Pandas. Maybe even to convince you to get a second catto if you’ve only got one at home. Just show your partner or family this list when you want to pitch them this awesome idea wink wink nudge nudge.

Remember to upvote your fave cat pics as you scroll down. Just imagine that each upvote is like petting the pets. Oh, and there really are tons of benefits to having more cats. Not just for you—for the pets themselves.

Fundamentally Feline writes that having two cats (or more if we’re honest—keep an eye out for an article titled “Three cats are better than two”) is great for the animals. That’s because this way, they can actually enjoy each other’s company and be social as a species.

“They naturally live in small groups called colonies. Cats are solitary hunters, but not a solitary species,” writes cat behaviorist Ingrid Johnson, explaining that some people may have some misunderstandings about felines and how social they are.

According to the expert, cats that have playmates tend to be more socially well-adjusted, have fewer behavior problems, are less aggressive, and are not as shy, on the flip side. In short, socialization brings out the best in cats.

What’s more, if cats are poorly socialized during their early life, they may not know how to react when they eventually come into contact with an actual cat later on. Think about how Disney’s Tarzan reacted to seeing a human being for the first time as an adult.

Furthermore, pets that have other pets to play with are far more active. And active cats are healthier, happier, and tend to be slimmer. This is very important considering the various health issues that come with a catto being a chonker: they might look huggable but their quality of life suffers as a result.

#18 I Need Some Space

When cats have company, they also tend to be less destructive. That’s because they’re not as bored and so don’t need to try so hard to get their owner’s attention: they’ve already got someone to play with even if their hooman is busy.

Having two cats also means that you don’t have to worry as much about your pet getting lonely if you ever go on a short trip or have to work long hours at the popcorn mines/corporate office. And, Fundamentally Feline argues, having a playmate will keep your floof of a feline young and energetic into its senior years.
