    Introducing adult cats..

    Another update: so my boy started hissing and growling at the resident cat. Who kept getting in his face. Eventually the resident cat did take the hint and left. Is this something that can eventually go away on its own? Or will this always be an issue?

    Introducing adult cats..

    Hi! So here we’re 8 months later and our cats are finally able to be in the same room together. No fighting. This has been for about a week. My female cat is cool with the resident cat. She’s already licking his face and playing. My male cat still hisses and hides, sometimes growls. the...

    Help

    Hi all, I have noticed a clear film over my cats eye. This isn’t the first time I’ve noticed it, and it doesn’t seem to be bothering her. But I guess I’d just like to know what it might be and if it’s something I should get check out. Thanks in advance if you are able to help.

    Bonded cats and hissing?

    Ok thanks so much! Would it still be beneficial to let mine out for a little while? We can keep the dog and resident cat contained. I worry that mine are too cooped up in this tiny room. They have been bonded for 4 years now, the hissing is alarming. My male cat has been very territorial over...

    Bonded cats and hissing?

    It was up the first time for about a week. I’d keep it up during feeding them wet food. I kept a blanket on it, and would slowly lift it. I gave treats if they reacted positively.

    Bonded cats and hissing?

    Okay. A months ago I started scent swapping, neither of the three had any aggression toward the scents. Once it got to a point where it didn’t seem like scents caught their attention. I moved on to site swapping. This was difficult and I’m not entirely sure I should have moved on from this step...

    Introducing adult cats..

    We got to a point where we felt comfortable getting the boys in the same room. The resident cat hissed and started yelling. We broke it up Before they could really fight. Feeling a little discouraged. Mine are too scared/skittish and his is a little aggressive (he ambushes, will bite legs/feet...

    Introducing adult cats..

    So. We finally got to a point where our boys aren’t hissing at one another. (My girl is going to take some time) one boy even lays down and shows his belly while making eye contact. But our resident boy will reach his paw in when the other is close. No claws, he did a slight meow but he makes...

    Introducing adult cats..

    So all has been going well for the last week. We started scent swapping, then I started feeding them on each side of the door. So today we tried to feed them wet food with gates across. I used a blanket to cover and lifted it just a little. Only my male cat would come out, my female cat...

    Introducing adult cats..

    Yes, I bought some of the feliway diffusers. I only plugged them in about 3 days ago. So here’s hoping they work. I expected this to be a challenge, but I guess I didn’t expect the resident cat to react that way. He didn’t even see the cats, he could only smell them. He was stalking the door for...

    We just moved today. I moved into the house that one cat lived in already. He started hissing at the door almost instantly.

    Introducing adult cats..

    So I’ve started the scent swapping. My cats seem to have no interest. They’ll give it a quick sniff or two and walk away. His cat really gets his nose in there. For a solid minute. He will get up and stand there with his mouth open. He’s an energetic cat and my boyfriend says he stand with his...

    Introducing adult cats..

    Ok great! Should it be the same items? For example: I rub a cloth on my two cats and use that same one on his? Or different ones for each individual. I appreciate your help!

    Introducing adult cats..

    So I haven’t tried this yet! I am not moving for about a month and a half. Is this something I would benefit doing sooner rather than later?
