It will be a toss-up whether the cat would tolerate another cat or another dog better. There is no way to predict what a cat will do when confronted with another animal.

If you go the cat route you should try for a calm, older cat who has a track record of getting only with other cats. You might try a kitten, but if your cat is easily annoyed then this might be more of a problem.

As far as dogs are concerned, I am not that good with dog breeds, but you'd want a calm dog. Actually your cat might feel less threatened by a middle-sized quiet dog than a small yappy one.

Whatever you decide be sure that the animal you adopt can be returned if things don't work out.
