Well, we did end up getting another cat in September 2013 and his name is Professor Maxwell Leonardo Underfoot and is the baby of our clan since he was 16 months when we got him. Mr. Oliver Bobbins was happy to have a new male friend. Those boys love each other, maybe too much. Look at Max...
Glad to hear things are working out. Sometimes our cats play fight, but it turns rough with knock out punches and fur flying. No one gets really hurt. It just looks worse then it is.
Our Isla has a weight problem too and we are now giving her fiber treats to help curve her figure. She looks a...
Yeah when you are not home keep them apart until you know they are fine getting along. Will take anywhere from 1-3 months usually, but maybe more, so just read them. Such pretty girls you have! And yeah what @Our3girls said, maybe a baby gate for when you sleep.
Sounds like things are going well then. It just takes time. As long as you are not seeing vicious attacking and blood you are good. :)
Osha would freak out when the TV was turned on the first few months or if we turned off the ceiling fans. I think sometimes these animals were in cages for so...
How long have you had the younger one? It took about a month before Isla would even tolerate the others (she would screech like her eyes were being ripped out of her head) and after about 4-6 months she is part of the family. Sometimes she gets bullied on, but otherwise she is a happy girl. I...
Wow those two are adorable! @chalupa will you post your two ladies? I made this collage for my friend last night. Everyone except the white cat with big eyes on the far left are living with us now. Charlie passed a few years ago, but she wanted him included.
Isla Birdie is the princess white...
If the vet says to wait it out then I would do so, but just make sure she is eating and drinking. Have you introduced them to each other yet? Usually the older cat has the issue. We tried to do the 5-10 minute introductions and it got up no where. You might want to just open up the home when you...
I would think about a visit to the vet at this point and they might be able to get her an antibiotic to clear up the kitty cold. If you wait it could turn into something more severe.
I would also try a few different kinds of food, maybe ones with more sauce. If she is really bad get some...
