Possibly. I have a number of other concerns about this process that I haven’t listed here that are also weighing in on my outlook. But observing Ivy’s behavior: the random caving, decreased appetite, and hiding from Star makes me think that this is not going to work out. Ivy continues to...

She has been, why?

Update to all following my deteriorating situation: ivy eats but doesn’t drink, I’m going to be putting more coffee mugs (which she prefers to drink out of) around the house. Whenever she walks into my room, whether or not Star is in there, she hisses. She had a moment today where she was just...

I sit with them and pet them and generally try to spend time with them. I’m just naturally stressed so there’s that. Ivy is eating but not drinking, which concerns me. The only thing she really wants is dry food.

Feliway multi cats. update: Ivy continues to lurk and hiss and she FINALLY did eat, but I can tell this is stressing her out even so. No more or less than it already was but her not eating and drinking on the regular worries me. star is sad and not getting why she can’t go and play with anyone...

Ivy is now eating a bit and walking around meowing pitifully so there’s that? Just like, long low meows, and she ran up to hiss at my door when it was time for Stars playtime. I think she was pushed too far today. she did eat and all but she’s also very upset and fractious. I’m just freaking...

Ivy hasn’t eaten a full meal in three days, and she’s only using her litter box once a day which is not normal. I really do think I’ll have to surrender Star, because she deserves better than being in my room all the time, and Ivy deserves better than being afraid to come out from under the bed...

I’m sobbing guys, I really wanted this to work, but Ivy won’t come out and it’s like she just shut down. Stars a good girl but I have to think of what’s best for Ivy.

So, Star just chased Ivy under my roommates bed. She’s not eating and drinking properly. I don’t think I have the time to dedicate to a proper re- introduction. I think sending surrendering Star back to the shelter (which is a no-kill) might be the best option. she won’t come out now. I knowa...

I am posting a lot and my apologies but guess who just trotted into my room when I was going to get water and was then chased around by a kitten half her size? If you answered Ivy you are correct. It was sad AND funny. I hate to kick her out but I can’t let them togethet unsupervised yet...

So, to answer Jem and pearl99: No Iwont make Ivy hungry. I’m too scared she just won’t eat period if I try toc muck with her food anymore. i only have one cat tree in the living room as it’s really only big enough for the one. It’s ivys but star partakes. Im planning to move that one upstairs...

Thank you for all your help everyone, it has been so nice to be getting advice From people who’ve been through it. As of today, I’ve been putting Star downstairs in my laundry room during feeding time. Ivy is not food motivated, and she never has been. I don’t free feed her but I do leave her...

that could work! Star is 12 weeks old as of now; she’s a little escape artist and her expression is one that says quite clearly she’s never had a single thought and never will. She’s escaped several times and ivy has been close by occasionally and will usually growl and hiss and stuff. I put...

Thank you for the advice! Unfortunately for me AND for Star I might have to start over because Star has escaped three times in the past hour, and Ivy was at best displeased. Star is now crying loudly and Ivy is still upset, so there’s that.

Hi guys, Not much change on this end, though the vet said Ivy is a picture of health ❤️ She comes and investigates the door from time to time, if she wants me to come do something, but otherwise gives no interest in Star. Star continues every effort to escape, though she has learned to jump to...
