Hi everyone,
We got a new cat almost three weeks ago. She is very sweet but over time she has gotten more reclusive. She will stay under our bed the entire day, and only comes out to eat. She will also sleep with us in our bed during the night, but in the morning after she eats, she is back...
I've tried lots of clumping litter, but my favourite BY FAR for eliminating odours is ProNature. It's made by a Canadian company, so I'm not sure if it's available elsewhere.
The cat sanctuary I got my new cat from was using wood pellets and it didn't stink in there at all. I may try that, if...
I've read that too but don't believe it is the case with my cat at all. She is incredibly docile and gentle. For example, we can pet her for as long as we want (even her belly!), and she doesn't swat or bite us. Also, she comes when called and comes to comfort me when I'm upset. She does what...

I got one for my kitty because she was terrified of our new cat due to a bad experience with another cat a few weeks ago (before that, she had always loved cats). I...
Update: I was able to get the two cats in the same room together!!!
I had the door opened a crack and my resident cat wanted to come in. She wasn't growling or hissing so I opened the door all the way and sat between the two cats. I got them within a couple of feet of each other! First with...
Thanks so much, everyone! I really appreciate your help. Yes, I've been giving kitty l-lysine every day. Now her other eye is leaky too. Probably just too much stress in her new home.
