Understood. I do try to redirect him when he focuses on her. The Red Dot usually does it for him; however, even chasing it, he will stop and try to refocus on her if he even thinks he sees her. Plus, I teach and it’s a composition course for dual credit, high school kids. There are stretches...

Should I keep using the stacked gates and maybe cover the top one with a blanket, I wonder? If he thinks the top is solid and can’t be climbed?

He’s a hard-headed and determined fellow, yes. Also around 13 lbs, so I’m surprised the gates held.

I did yes.

I bought a couple baby gates for the door so the two could interact. It took maybe three days for Loki to climb them and go inside. I know this because I heard such a ruckus a short time ago, cats fighting. Sure enough... Not sure how to proceed now. If he won’t stay on his side? What can I do?

While I'm working with them separately like this, is there any way to help him be less in-your-face with her and her less terrified of everything that isn't human? That may also help with them. I can't change who they are, but giving her more confidence (so she's less likely to cower and act...

I have to admit that I found out why the sheet kept coming back into the room: my male would play with it and slide his feet under the crack to push it back in. He plays with everything, though! She still hisses and moves away from the door when I crack it so they can sniff at one another. On...

Update: I separated them and put her in "her" room (it's really always been) and kept him away from her for the last 3-4 days. I fed them separately and visited her briefly when I could (teaching has been hectic this week due to testing). Last night, I actually heard her meowing through the...

Here are my beauties. Loki is the tuxedo boy and Sigyn is the lynx point.

Hey everyone. I just joined and figured I'd introduce myself now that I've posted about my cat problems. I'm in Texas and have had cats off and on in life growing up, but this is the first time I've had cats while on my own. I teach high school English (dual credit this year) and just recently...

It’s not too late to start over? I’ll give it a shot.

This is my first post here but I need some advice. I adopted Loki, a neutered male, when he was a bit over a year old. I've had him in my apartment now for the last 2 going on 3 years, which makes him around 4 or 4.5 years old. He's always been vocal and happy, playful, curious about everything...
