Hello. We have a 2 year old female bengal cat who is very needy and a scaredy-cat. She was obsessed with our 11 year old male cat, who passed away few months ago. She became depressed after his passing, so we decided that she needed another cat to cuddle and play with. We adopted a 4 month old male cat, who is very loving and playful. We separated the cats for several days and slowly let them have interactions. Older cat was very interested but would initially hiss and swat at the kitten. As the time passed (a week) the hissing stopped but our older cat keeps chasing after the kitten and swatting at him. That scares the kitten tremendously. Today during one of those chases he went behind the tv stand and pooped there. The older cat seems like she just wants to play, as with our former cat they would chase each other around. We just don’t know what to do to make her be a little less rough and for the kitten to stop being scared. We tried separating them, stopping the “play” when it gets rough and praising the older cat with pets and treats when she behaves nice near the kitten. We are also worried that the kittens personality will change if this continues. Currently he is very active, but also loving and cuddly. Any advance will help. Thanks in advance!
