Hi there fellow feline lovers,
I need your advice please!!!
We were adopted by two 5 and 6 month old (female) cats Biscuit and Moomin on Saturday at the local SPCA..we took them both as they were sharing a cage and looked like they were mates...well we got them home and after an initial 'fact finding mission' and generally settling in (which involved smooching us BIG time, very nice too) Biscuit set about terrorising Moomin, chasing her round the place, stalking her, starting fights and generally giving her a hard time...Biscuit it seems tends to be the naughtier of the two (when we got her home she was the one who leapt out of the carrier and started scratching the sofa!) and the last thing I want is Mommin to be bullied and feel stressed in her own home...they are both on antibiotics as Biscuit had caught 'Snuffles' whilst in the shelter, and I don't want either of them to be stressed as this will make it worse...
We both work in the day and thought that having company in each other would make life more interesting for them...
When we got home last night, we couldn't find Moomin at all and then she suddenly turned up...was like she had been hiding....
Please help with any advice you can offer in all your feline wisdom....
Thanks so much
New Mum Sam
