We’re about three weeks in and the hissing and growling continues, although she doesn’t hide anymore. Should I go back to the previous stage of introductions, or let them co-exist for half hour periods with me present?

I’m a new foster parent, and I’m just looking for advice on introducing my foster girl to my resident cats. She’s very shy, so spent the first week on her own in her room, but has since come out of her shell and has started trying to come out and explore after two weeks. The only issue is when...

Sorry for the late responses - we had a huge storm on Sunday out here and lost power completely! Pip was a rescue cat, so I adopted him when he was two years old. He was given up to the shelter at 9 months because he had horrible allergies and had scratched raw patches into his fur. He was...

Hi everyone! We had a huge storm on Sunday and no power till Tuesday night, so sorry about the late responses! I've tried pumpkin in food, but since the March incident, Pippin has been (rightfully) suspicious of all non-cat food and avoids it. He's quite picky and gives me filthy looks if I try...

Pip's acne isn't too bad anymore - we've just been treating it with the antifungal wipes you listed above (I'm in Australia so I think the names might be different) and using the same treatment to wipe down his bowls. His acne is from his allergies, so I know when my hayfever is bad that I need...

I've posted here about introducing my two cats (who are now the best of friends, so thank you all for the advice!). My older cat Pippin had surgery in April to remove a blockage, and recovered well, becoming a happy, healthy cat. However, since the operation he's had a few bouts of constipation...

Hello! My cat has feline acne as well, and we've had him on treatment and checked his food. What kind of bowls do you use to feed Nika? We were advised to switch to metal bowls from ceramic or plastic, as this could be irritating the cat's chin.

Hi everyone. I've previously posted about introducing my two cats, and they're both getting on really well, so thank you to everyone. My kitten, Momo, had her last vaccine yesterday and was fine at night. This morning she's been lethargic, she hasn't eaten very much (normally a complete...

Things are going okay, I think. We're having short periods of playtime (no more than half an hour). The kitten is still a bit hissy, and she's pretty bad tempered about being locked away and/or followed, so she's been pretty moody. She's also been eating Pippin's food, which he's been...

The cats obviously decided to speed things up and the kitten escaped into the main room. My bigger cat, to his credit, is incredibly patient with her and tries to get her to play or chase him, but she's pretty uncomfortable right now (he's a pretty big ragdoll type cat, about 13 pounds). She was...

I adopted Pippin, an adult cat last year when he was 2, he's now three and a half. He is a pretty large, loud and friendly cat and loves hanging out with people. He does get a bit of separation anxiety, which has been worrying me because I work full time. I've recently adopted a new female...
