Hello all! Another update, probably my last one, and a very exciting and happy one!! About a month ago, Boogie started becoming bolder and learned he loved to sit on our lap while we were watching TV. The first time he actually jumped on my lap I was so shocked I tried so hard not to move at...

Hello! Here are some updates: - Boogie is still very jumpy but will tolerate cuddles when he has just woken up. Any other time, he runs away. - I bought a back scratcher because I read people used it with cats who were not used to touch and he actually really enjoys it! - Even though he is still...

Hi! I think the problem was the first box being too small for him and him being uncomfortable. As soon as we removed the cover, he went in it. He does use the larger box for peeing and pooing too, though.

Thank you for your answer! This morning I closed the door of the bedroom where the problematic litter box was and he still pooed right in front of the door. So he clearly knows he should go there and wants to go. A few hours ago I removed the cover of the smaller litter box to see if it was...

Hello! I have two male cats, one is a year and a half (Yoda), and the other, Boogie, is 6 months old. A few days ago, Boogie started going outside the litter box, always just a few feet from it. The poop looks normal in color and consistency... I have two litter boxes, one bigger than the...

Here are some pics of them! Yoda deciding my arm now belongs to him, Boogie doing some yoga on his newly found favourite spot : the couch! And both of them sleeping together like the true best friends they are 💖

Thank you! Its a relief to know 3 months is still a short time. I will continue to let him approach us on his own terms. I am leaving one of my t-shirts on the couch at night and I always find him next morning sleeping on it. It makes sense that he is trying to be close to us and cautious at the...

Hi! The thing is there is not much to update about… Boogie and Yoda are still best friends forever. They do everything together. That makes me so happy and is deffinitely a relief. Boogie is still super sk Hi all! Not much to update… Which is good news! Yoda and Boogie are still best mates...

Hello! I read all of your comments, thank you so much for all the detail you put into it. I still have a lot of thinking to do. I obviously want the best for both of them and Im new to the cat world so its tricky to be sure which decision is right. I might give Boogie another month. He qill...

Thank you so much for your answers. I will deffinitely put all of the advice into practice when the time comes! Yesterday I spoke to the cat behaviourist and expressed my concerns about this issue. She told me not to worry and suggested not to spay Boogie inmediately since he is still adjusting...

Hello! Thank you so much for all your answers and kind words! Here to give another Boogie and Yoda update, more of a Boogie update really: Things hace only improved between these two. They have become inseparable. They sleep together, they follow each other around… Now that Yoda is in the couch...

I think Yoda’s character has really made a positive impact on their socialisation together. Every time Boogie hissed, spit or howled at him, he just turned around and left. Also he never invaded his personal space if he saw he wasnt receptive. Thats deffinitely helped! Weve been so blessed with...

Thank you much for your answer! Its been a busy week but Im glad to say I wont be needing to try your advice because Boogie and Yoda are officially best friends! Ill leave here the steps we followed, in case anyone is going through the same thing and needs to hear other’s experiences! - First we...

Hello all! Boogie and Yoda update: After Boogie was in the bathroom for a couple of hours, he was noticeably more calm. I gave him one of Yodas toys that had his scent and he played with it, chewed it and licked it. The lady from the shelter recommended us to open the bathroom door and see what...

The thing is when I first took him to the vet they didnt see the herpes, just that he had a scratch in his left eye. We had to put eyedrops in it for a couple of days and come again the following week to see if he had healed. After those two visits, he had a flare up and I noticed he was making...

Thank you! It made me feel better that Yoda didn't really react to Boogie hissing and getting all puffy! He just turned around and left, like he wasn't interested. Hopefully that gives Boogie the message that he is not a danger!

Hello! Here to give a Boogie and Yoda update: So we brought Yoda a couple of hours ago home. The lady who gave him to us is a cat behaviourist expert and she advised on how to do the introductions… She told us to place Yoda’s carrier in Boogie’s safe room and let Boogie smell him first. As I...

I might get more feliway then… And yes! Im excited about Yoda joining our little family, Ill share pictures for sure! In the meantime, heres Boogie hanging in the kitchen!
