Well, I adopted a new cat - he is too much..3 years old, lays in my arms
like melting marshmallows. But that's the problem - he's TOO loving!! Every
other cat I've ever had never sat on my lap - he whines and cries till he
can sit right on me. Seems to regard me as a human bean bag chair. His
owner died, so maybe that's the problem - the shock of finding him makes
him "clingy".

My other cat had no problem being alone, but when I get home, he's hiding
under the bed - seems really affected. My guess is that other owner was
elderly and home a lot - rarely was he left alone.

I thought if I got another cat or kitten it might help. How do I introduce
a new cat into the household? Bring the new one in and "let 'er rip"..or
keep the new cat separated, but "smellable"..

I have a dressing area/bathroom that would be perfect for this..Main cat's
stuff is in the large space, newest cats stuff would be in sequestered
area. How long should they be kept apart..
