    Not sure how to curb aggression by resident cat

    Hi there. I'll try to keep this short. I have four cats, but this centers around two of them. The resident boy, Ori, and the new boy, Fruit Loop. It's been a very... VERY long road, due to several factors, but I see the light at the end of the tunnel. When I was finally able to start letting...

    Is it normal for cats to 'spat' with one another?

    So I'm fairly certain I know the answer to this and I'm just being a helicopter cat parent but please bear with me. Bit of a long post. We have four cats: Mochi and Millie, 'The Kittens,' are two and a half year old bonded female pair. Ori is the original cat and a bit of an anxious mess (helped...

    Cat body language - avoiding eye contact, lidded eyes

    Hi! I have another question about cat body language. I only see this with my one male cat Ori. Sometimes when I tell him 'no' - Almost exclusively when he's either trying to climb into my lap and I'm working, or he's trying to sneak food - He will halt for a moment, and then start up again...

    I am unsure where to go next with introducing the new cat

    I have three resident cats. A bonded pair of young females (The Kittens, even though they're 1.5yrs), and an adult male, roughly 4 years (Ori). A new young adult male (2ish years) cat showed up on Halloween. He's been dubbed Fruit Loop. He was neutered at the end of December. House is full of...

    Am I on the right track RE: Kitten introduction

    Hi there I did this song and dance (introducing a new cat) about three years back, and got very good advice. I'm back again to see if I'm doing it right again! My older cat recently passed away entirely unexpectedly. Our younger cat has been painfully lonely with him gone. So, we've adopted a...

    Will Another Young Cat Get My Kitten To Give My Cat A Break?

    Hi! So. I have my adult cat Monty, who is around 8. I brought home a kitten in September. After about 3 months, I was able to integrate them. Kitten is now about 10 months old, and as he has grown, Monty's tolerance of his antics has grown almost non-existent. Monty will still play with the...

    My Cat Is Food Aggressive Towards Me. How Can I Fix That?

    I took in a feral and hungry stray at 2 months old. He is now about 7-8 months old, and he is aggressive to me about food. He has always been understandably food fixated (just like our other cat, also a stray, has been his whole life though he has chilled a lot). He will eat anything and...

    How Can I Tell When It's Safe To Let My Adult Cat And New Kitten Interact?

    Ok, so this might be a little long, I'm sorry! I posted here not too long ago about my new kitten and my adult cat Monty. I concluded that my adult cat's aggressive reaction to my kitten was fear as opposed to actual aggression, and if I let HIM make the choice to approach us he was much...

    New Kitten, Current Cat Is A Curmudgeon. Ideas?

    Hi! So, I have an approx. 7 year old cat that showed up when we was 1 as a stray. He showed up at my fiance's parents house. They had a cat already, and Monty, the newcomer (our cat) would regularly actively hunt him down and attack him. They were both inside/outside cats. He would trot through...
