I’m not sure where I should post this but here goes. I have resident cats, one is 13 years old, (Muffin) the other is 9 years old. (Blacky) They have never gotten along so my poor 13 year old mainly stays in my bedroom. I had a third cat (14years old) who recently passed away (in February). She got along with both cats and seemed more active because she was always roaming around. The 9 year old would sleep downstairs most of the day. But since she passed away Blacky meows a lot more and seems to want to spend more time upstairs. Sometimes she sleeps in my bedroom on a cat tree but Muffin really doesn’t like it and have noticed she won’t jump off the bed to get a drink etc. sometimes I hear them growling at each other and times when Blacky goes after Muffin.
When I hear it I break it up and make Blacky go out of the room. Because Muffin is 13 I don’t want her to get stressed out and have heart issues if that’s possible for cats.
Recently I have befriended a half feral mother cat and her 3 kittens. I brought them inside our porch and want to make them indoor cats. I’ve gradually let them inside part of the house (downstairs) and have closed off the other part with folding doors but have placed a gate so I could gradually introduce Blacky to them. But she seems scared of them and when she sees them she runs upstairs. My main concern is it looks like she’s hardly eating or drinking and have noticed she hasn’t been pooping. I started giving her 1/4 teaspoon of Miralax twice a day for two days now. Not working. She eats very little, about a tablespoon of wet can food. I don’t know what to do.....
