    Introducing a new kitten to my resident cat

    Apologies for never responding! The kitties are mostly getting along now. They have little tussles here and there, but i honestly can't tell whether it is playing or not. They seem a little rough, but Lulu is the only one who ever hisses or growls still. Sometimes she pounces on his back haha...

    Introducing a new kitten to my resident cat

    So yeah there is definitely less hissing and growling going on. They still aren't friends just yet, though. She definitely has fleas (I saw one on her) so I called my vet and they said I don't have to bring her in, just get an estimate of her weight (I'm gonna weigh myself on my bathroom scale...

    What do fleas look like?!

    I have a tortie (the one I just got, I think she's a tortie) and a tuxedo cat so. Not super easy to see. But I did comb through her hair with my fingers a bit while she was sleeping in my lap and didn't see anything. I'm just so nervous about the possibility of it getting out of hand so i wanna...

    Introducing a new kitten to my resident cat

    Oh I forgot to mention, today I went grocery shopping and (though anxious about it) I let them be out together when I went. There was no sign of anything out of the ordinary when I got back haha. They were each asleep in their cat trees.

    Introducing a new kitten to my resident cat

    So things are progressing fairly well. I actually let Lulu stay out of her room last night. She's actively trying to destroy the carpet when I shut her in there and I live in an apartment so it's a bit of a problem haha. But honestly they aren't getting along, but they aren't fighting either...

    What do fleas look like?!

    So I vacuumed my whole apartment and plan to every other day for a while. I bought a flea comb and combed her. I got a few small black specks but not very many and no living fleas or anything. I also did my best to bathe her again (it still did not go well at all, she kept clawing her way over...

    What do fleas look like?!

    It was the same bug just different angles. She got fairly wet and there wasn't anything visible. I'm going to vacuum her room really quick while she's in the bathroom with her litter box and food and then I will go get a flea comb. I will try the bath again when I get back. She clawed me quite a...

    What do fleas look like?!

    So I don't know what magical world you live in where a cat can be bathed, but despite how skeptical i was I decided to try it. It went horribly. There is water everywhere and she would not hold still long enough for me to get her even relatively wet and lathered. I've only seen the one potential...

    What do fleas look like?!

    So I just got a new kitten from a coworker a couple days ago.. introductions appear to be going fairly well and today I notice a small jumping insect on my bed? I took a photo as best as I was able. I'm going to call the vet on Monday to see if they can take me that day. She doesn't seem overly...

    Introducing a new kitten to my resident cat

    Thank you for the reply! I apologize for posting so much, I'm just an anxious cat mom with little cat intro experience haha. I'll continue with the supervised visits and post again if something happens that I'm unsure of.

    Introducing a new kitten to my resident cat

    Another update: I put Lulu back in her room before I went to bed. This morning we had some wet food and meeting time again. I think she's trying to establish herself as top cat, which I find hilarious because she is half the size of Socks. She continues to growl at him and has bopped him when he...

    Introducing a new kitten to my resident cat

    Update: when I was leaving after cleaning Lulu's litter box she decided she was done being in her room and wanted to come out for a visit. They met up pretty close to the door and there were some meows exchanged before Lulu started hissing a little. Socks didn't mind, he moved past her and...
