HI,
A couple of months ago we got our first kitten (Sophie), she was 8 weeks old and adjusted to us and her new home really well but after a month we decided to get her a playmate as we both work all day. The new one (Ellie)was 11 weeks, 1 month younger. Initially Sophie would'nt give Ellie any peace and we would have to supervise playtimes but after a while Ellie came out of her shell and we let them sleep together.
The problem is that they seem to have switched roles, Ellie has become very active and Sophie just sleeps all the time and won't play much if at all. She seems fine in all other respects, eating, drinking, toilet etc. She almost seems depressed!
