Hi everyone, I am once again posting about my adult foster cat, Destiny.
I have an adult cat of my own and she does not care for other adult cats. (We thought Destiny the foster cat was 4 months like the shelter said but she is actually 2 years old.. no problem, we love her! )
Anyway, my cat will beat up adults who act like prey. Unfortunately the food introduction method didn't go so well because Destiny doesn't really care for wet food, so she ran and my cat chased her.
I can't introduce them by allowing them to see each other while they eat because Destiny doesn't like any wet food and will nibble on hard food throughout the day.
Are there other ways? Please give me any ideas you have, I would love for them to all get along so that Destiny doesn't have to stay locked up in a bedroom and she can be part of the family while she waits for a home. Unfortunately because she can act aggressively towards humans, this will probably take a long time and I don't want her locked up until she is adopted (she is let out when I put the others away in her room to get to know her smells, but she doesn't stay out for long...)
Thanks for any help you can provide!
