I am sorry to hear about your Grandma but you are doing a wonderful thing by taking in her cat. I don't have anything too much more to add, but I've found (in taking in my Grandma's cat) that classical music and just talking to her lots really helps. And as others have said just let her do...

I posted a while ago, after taking in my Grandma's cat (I have two 8 month old kittens). Life has sort of settled down, and for the last four days whilst we've been at home we have had all the doors open (this is the second time we've tried to introduce them all). We even managed to have the...

I am so delighted to read all these threads and very pleased that singa and soleil are sort of getting on now! We have not been so lucky. Our old cat (we are in week 3 now) has been put back into her room during the day, and we let her out at night time when the two kittens are put into the...

We have two kittens and have always kept them out of the bedroom at night because they just kept playing etc and keeping us up! I had some great advice from someone on this forum so I shall pass it on ... put some double sided sticky tape on your bedroom door, cos your kitten don't like...

Gosh, reading all these is like talking about my own house right now! I'm sending you all good wishes and vibes..... Can anyone help, it's week 2 and all the cats are out and the old cat I have just taken in has now ventured downstairs. This is a positive step, except that she STILL hisses at...

Ahh my cats do this too, I thought it was because they didn't like the food and were trying to bury it?! (Although they generally do eat it all) But either way, its the instinct thing.

I am reading these stories with interest! Our 3 cats are now roaming the house, but the older (new) one still hisses and spits! funnily enough the smell seems to be OK and she doesn't hiss at that at all it's more the sight of the cats that worries her. i am going to buy the vanilla extract...

Don't panic! I have just been reading your story and I had to post my own question as I am doing exactly what you are but the other way round. I have two kittens and a new old cat that I had to take in. I don't have any solutions but wanted to say, I sympathise!!! We are having...

I have just been reading "How long does it take?" and I'm so relieved to hear someone else going through what I am!! I sympathise totally. Although I have a question as I'm doing it vice versa. I have two kittens, (8 months) and I have recently had to take in my Grandma's old cat (age 11...

I will shortly be taking care of my Grandma's cat for her (she is about 8 or 10 I think) and I already have two 7 month old kittens. Does anyone have any suggestions on how best to introduce her to the kittens? They are very lovable but I am a little concerned as she has lived with just my...

I had exactly the same problem recently and someone from this forum suggested that I should put double sided sticky tape on the door where they scratch. As they don't like getting sticky paws. It has worked a treat!!! No more scratching and I get a full nights sleep. I do still get a bit of...

haa haa thanks Brigitte - yes that often happens in my house too. Once he's woken us up I get up and he follows me into the bathroom purring like crazy! I know he just wants a little fuss made of him, (and he certainly gets lots of fuss in during the day!) and I'm not sure who's going to win -...

We have two 7 month old kittens, they are brother and sister. We have never let them sleep in our room at night time, but they have beds etc in the hallway where they sleep. A few weeks ago the boy started scratching the door and meowing early morning (from 3pm onwards!!!) and it is driving us...
