Another day of training. Sometimes I wonder who is training who. I think their training me to be patient. Guess who's the instigator. (the morning session) A little more relaxed. I brought out the toy. Enjoying their space. Things went pretty good in the morning but the evening...

Thanks.... the journey went smooth this morning but not so smooth in the evening. Details below.

Phase 3 intro's when real well today. This morning when I let Tiger out of his cage to clean his litter box. I heard a strange noise. I looked around and Tiger was playing with Buddy through the air gap in Buddy's door. He has never done this before. What a day to start phase 3 and the one on...

Thanks, we think so too. He is just so full of energy, he runs 100mph around the house and sometimes bounces off the walls. He is a character. Tomorrow(thurs) are the one on one intros. They should be interesting. Hope things go well.

Tiger has changed and looks forwards to play with Buddy more and more. In my mind they have both settled down enough for them to get together.... couple more days. Yes they have the run of the house now but one at a time. The cages are more for sleeping and when they eat. Tiger is on z/d feline...

Thanks.... sure hope they get things under control when they go one on one later this week. I don't mind if they play hard so long as they don't bite and get the fur to fly.

Tiger and Buddy have made great progress in their socializing. The last and final phase #3, one on one, should be this week. In Phase #1 Tiger stayed in the training cage while Buddy was in 2-levels of the 3-story cages. Sessions were to let Buddy out of his cage and come over to visit Tiger in...

Hi, Glad to hear your two are making great progress together. It's sometimes slow progress though with us humans. But it sounds like she relating to you more and more. If we only could read their minds and really know what's the best path to their heart. Sounds like you're doing a great job...

Hi, Charlie is one beautiful kittie. Love his markings. He looks so relaxed. Glad to hear he is doing great with your bunch. It's interesting to follow his progress.

So glad to hear that your two kitties are getting along so good. I know with my two it seem so long a process. But if they move in a positive direction the wait is worth it. I got the same problem you had with one cat wanting to get all over the other. My intro's are still with Tiger in the...

Hi Laurie, I have been following your thread and am amazed how you turn tough situations into such orderly experiences. How do you do it with all of your kitties? Charlie is so lucky to have you. He is soo sweet. Just love his smile. I've learned a lot from all your expert experiences. In my...

Oh gosh no. Sorry i didn't make that clear. They will have the full run of the house upstairs and downstairs(2-story) when they finally get together. Thanks for your concern and bringing that up. Yeah, that wouldn't be good. When I leave Tiger out of his cage with Buddy in his cage Tiger...

Thanks, I just don't want them to get hurt. There doing so much better. I leave Buddy out of his cage and he walks over to Tiger and they give each other a big long nose to nose greating. Then Buddy starts rubbing his body all over Tigers cage. Tiger comes up and wants to sniff Buddy at that...

I just didn't have the heart to subject Tiger into an all out cat fight without seriously thinking this whole matter of getting them together. I rolled it over and over in my mind and still remained puzzled about the hostility between these two sweet cats. Gosh, isn't there another way to have...

I was afraid you were going to say that. Back in my mind I figured it was going to come to this. I'll let them at it this weekend when my grandson isn't around. We take care of him on thurs. & Fri. days. I'll cut their nails, get a can with some stones in it for a noise maker and a wand toy that...
