    Unsuccessful introduction, now reintroducing

    When I have the gate up, he stares at her. If I let him check her out while on my lap, he wants to sniff her rear end and lick it. Which makes me think she is putting out hormones that he can clearly smell. When he first interacts with her after letting them together, he just sniffs her. Then...

    Unsuccessful introduction, now reintroducing

    Both my husband and I are usually quick to react and make sure he’s not hurting her and vice versa. I try to get individual play time, especially with Woodchip the bigger cat, beforehand. But it doesn’t matter if I play with him for an hr and a half. He will still treat her like prey. It’s...

    Unsuccessful introduction, now reintroducing

    Oops, I meant to reply to you directly. But accidentally just posted a general reply. He’s definitely getting really rough with her. He’s chasing her, pouncing on her, pinning her and biting her. And it doesn’t look like play bites. She screams and hisses. Runs and hides from him. She does...

    He’s definitely getting really rough with her. He’s chasing her, pouncing on her, pinning her and biting her. And it doesn’t look like play bites. She screams and hisses. Runs and hides from him. She does eventually come out. She desperately does want to play with him. But it’s as if she’s prey...

    Unsuccessful introduction, now reintroducing

    At first, I believe they did have some rough play. But now I think it’s turned into fighting. His ears go back and his tail goes crazy. She’s scared of him now because he’s so much bigger than her. I’ve trimmed his nails so he can’t scratch her. But I’ve only successfully been able to trim a few...

    Thank you! I didn’t even think about that. I’m gonna set up an appt with her vet asap and see what I can do. I’ll set a different appt up for my resident cat later and make sure he’s in good health as well. I’m pretty certain he is, but just in case.

    Unsuccessful introduction, now reintroducing

    Hi, I apologize if this topic has already been posted about. I’m not very “forum savy”. I have two cats I’m trying to reintroduce, and would love some advice. Backstory: I got my current cat Woodchip, a male Siberian Forest Cat from a breeder on December 30th 2023. He’s...
