I have 10 which is unusual. We make over $100,000 a yr. & we can and do spoil them. They are all inside, all microchipped, spayed and neutered. We have lots of toys & cat trees. I feed the birds outside so they always have something to look at through the windows. We have 8 litter boxes. Two of which are gigantic ones. I clean them twice a day. I use clumping litter. The way to go! Didn't plan on 10. We found 3 kittens at once. We won't have anymore though. Our house is immaculate. They never make outside the litterbox. Everyone is amazed how nice our house is. I think most people have 3. Rescue from a shelter!
