One more thing...I am giving her rescue remedy for pets.

Well, it has been a month. My older cat G avoided the upstairs as soon as the kitten S came home. No curiosity/sniffing the door etc. She stopped going upstairs. I brought things with S's scent down to her and vice versa. I took her up to the room S was in while he was out. She would not go near...

Lol… this makes me feel better. I think they’ll be separated at night for a long time and won’t be left unsupervised for some time. My cat is putting on a good show, but she’s a little scared of him. So my kitten is going to be big…huge paws…and I don’t want him bossing the cat around. I’m fine...

Allowed my little out today. Have lots of attention and praise to older cat. She hissed from a high perch and then wanted to hide in my bedroom, which was closed off. I opened the door and let her in, shutting the door behind her. My little has been scared and puffed up for about 10 min even...

We’ve always had a multi cat household. G (now 12 yrs) was rescued at 6 weeks with her litter mate and they joined my adult cat. Her litter mate died 3 years ago and we were heartbroken to lose our other cat 3 weeks ago. G was our only surviving cat. She is gentle and one of the sweetest cats...
