I genuinely believe a second cat is the greatest thing you can have for a cat (as long as they get along good). If you have the space I'd get a second box in the future.

Depends on the cat. Surely true for a bonded pair like this, but I had one cat who for the remaining ~10 years of her life never got past the grudging acceptance stage when we adopted a second, then a third. That second cat reacted similarly when another cat joined the household years later.
