Hi all,
I’m new to this forum and I’m happy to be here. I recently adopted an orange tabby kitten around 3.5 months old little over a week ago. He went through a period of separation anxiety as he had another kitten in his kennel at the animal shelter. Unfortunately I didn’t adopt that kitten ( she was gone the next day ). I decided to adopt another kitten who is around 2.5 months old beige colored orange to give my other kitten a playmate. I brought the other kitten into his safe room which more than likely smelled like my other kitten when he was in there, so I’m sure he’s acclimated to the smell. Let’s just say the two kittens are total opposites. The older is relaxed and enjoys lap naps and some play time. The younger is very energetic. The older hisses each time he hears the other kitten when he’s close and the littlest just wants to play. He’s even hissed at the younger’s blanket. Ive rubbed some towels with the younger kittens scent and placed it under the older’s food. If anyone has any tips to introducing these two little balls of love I’d be most appreciative! I know it takes time, so I’ll be as patient as possible and not rush anything.
Thanks,
Hunter
