I am thinking of trying some sort of ? (med, herb, supplements) to help my scaredy cat 11 yr old (an only cat for 10.5 years) get along with an adopted 14 year old cat.
We were very slow in introducing (didn't let them face to face for several months; it is now 6 months since they've been introduced) but the formerly only-cat has fear aggression. When the new cat wants to walk past her or happens to walk towards her she will hiss and stalk. .. but in the end, she runs away because she is very scared of the new cat. The new cat is very mellow and does not instigate anything. .. though initially she was curious and wanted to sniff the fearful cat. Now she usually ignores the fearful one.
Has anyone had any success helping a scaredy cat have less anxiety?
