    Kitten to multi-cat household introduction not progressing

    Hi! I don't know if you've gotten an answer yet but I'm in a very similar situation. We have 2 residents and 2 new cats we took in after an emergeny rehome situation. All cats are adults and fixed. Sunny, our oldest (who is usually very sweet and timid) would flat out attack the newest cats, in...

    Experience with cats on Prozac/fluoxetine?

    At his old home Sunny was very skittish and shy; terrified of people and scared of the other cats he lived with. After we took him in we socialized him and his people-anxiety is almost completely gone. He's super friendly now. However, he will randomly and loudly scratch at doors/walls around...

    Experience with cats on Prozac/fluoxetine?

    Yesterday I took our 7yr old fixed male, Sunny, to the vet. He's in good health, but has some anxiety and has been displaying territorial aggression with two of our other cats.

    Unpredictable territorial(?) aggression in resident cat disturbing the peace. Need advice and encouragement!

    We're planning on letting Nori and Sushi comingle then adding Prax to the mix starting today. I'd also like to lock up the boys at night and let the girls roam the house, but Sunny gets antsy and scratches on doors after a while. We're hoping some kind of anti-anxiety meds will help him...
