    Having a hard time introducing new kitty to my herd

    No, I don't have gate or screen.... we have two storm doors that access the back porch, they have seen, hissed, and watched each other through them. When Daisy was still outside, she would come right up to the door glass, and Jethro would slap at the glass. Daisy doesn't act like she has any...

    Having a hard time introducing new kitty to my herd

    Well, it hasn't gotten any better, counting today, 6 times I have tried to get them together. Daisy ends up getting one of them in a corner, last time she just laid down in front of them washing, like she wasn't worried at all. I just tried again, a few minutes ago, it's been about a week since...

    Having a hard time introducing new kitty to my herd

    We are in the process of getting Daisy spayed...we sent off for a certificate from the state for a reduced fee spay certificate last week. I hope we can make the Oct. 14th date. Our vet said he didn't think she was spayed, and I trust his word. She is so affectionate to us, but not the other...

    Having a hard time introducing new kitty to my herd

    Well, it's not working too well...been letting Daisy and Lilly be around each other, Lily still hisses and growls, finds a place to hide behind something. Daisy keeps trying her, rushing at her, yeowling, Lily just sit there and ignored her. Eventually Daisy lunged at Lily, and chased her into...

    I was kind of thinking of putting Jethro in the bedroom for a couple hours, and let Daisy and Lily mingle...then put Daisy back in the bathroom, and let Jethro out withLily.

    What about if I put Jethro in the bedroom, and let Lily and Daisy get to know each other first, so they don't torment him?

    No, there was no playing, Lily just all of a sudden jumped him, and bowled him over. He hollered, and jumped up and ran away from her, somewhat afraid to get close to her for a bit.

    This was a scratch, it had the hair "mussed" in that spot...When I gently touched it, trying to see it, Jethro kind of made a snapping motion, telling me to leave it alone, it's sore. He had already had one a few weeks before, and I eventually had to comb the tuffed up hair out, because it kind...

    Also, we have two cat condos, one we just bought a few months ago. The first one we had, when Lily and her sister were little, Lily never really cared for it. Then Jethro came along, and he took charge of it, he loves to get in the top perch and sleep, this has been for the last 5-6 years. Now...

    Having a hard time introducing new kitty to my herd

    I mostly play with Jethro, Lily isn't so interested...and the only thing Jethro will pay attention to is a boot string. We have went through a few strings since he was a kitten. He likes to chew on them, and after a few minutes of play, he will grab the string and run in the kitchen with it, and...

    According to the vet, she has no scar, so evidently she isn't fixed...I thought for sure she would of went into heat before now, at her age.... Jethro and Lily are back to normal now...this morning, she run past him to get snacks, and he swatted at her. Also he will come to her, and lower his...

    My Jasmine Was Taken Away From Us Way Too Soon

    Thank you... a family of fox moved into the area. One had been watching us the entire time I was grilling, as soon as I left, it attacked. We think it tried to get Lily, as she had a bite on her belly, and Jasmine attacked to help her. We didn't know at the time, but an older lady down the road...

    My Jasmine Was Taken Away From Us Way Too Soon

    Our angel went back to Heaven, way too soon I have been wanting to write this for Jasmine, for a year now, and couldn't bring myself to do it. My heart is in shreds...I have a hard time thinking about her, looking at her pictures or video, without tears. Some of ya'll might remember us losing...
