Do you think it may just be Lilah trying to make herself known? Trying to assert herself? Trying to see who is the alpha cat?I spoke too soon. Lilah tried to swat at bee this morning..last night lilah howled at bee because she got within 2 feet of her, bee was scared all night huddling with her daddy while lilah glared at her from the chair...then this morning bee was on couch and lilah came charging at her and I stomped my foot to stop her from completing the contact-the claws were out and lilah was howling...I was able to distract Lilah and lure her with food into her room and shut the door...bee is pretty upset..
this morning someone from work expressed interest in Lilah so we may have a permanent home set up. I love Lilah but it's Bees house FIRST and if this cat is going to charge and scare bee=then she needs to find a new home-and this home would be an indoor only and she would be the only cat...
I know I would feel the same way if a new cat came in, trying to threaten Geoffrey.
BTW, I applaud you for taking in Lilah.
Whatever happens, you did a great thing by trying.
Lilah is still adjusting to not having her home, her person, new people, new cat to share things with, new food., new smells.
Look at how long it has taken Geoffrey. Almost a year. Now he is my shadow, except for when someone is at the door; then it is under my bed.
