I had the same concerns when I introduced a 1-month old kitten to a 1 year old (female) and a 2.5 year old (male). They both sleep in our bedroom. For the first 5 or 6 nights, the kitten slept in her own room (bathroom). During the day I allowed all the cats to socialize, and she went into her...

You're not alone. My cat does (did) the same thing, and that's with another cat around to play with. I started playing with her right before bedtime until she was too tired to do anything else. A lot of people suggest hiding most of the toys, and bringing out different ones every once in a...

That's a tough one. I've never been able to feed separate kinds of food without keeping them separated, especially when it's free feed. When it's saving the kitten's food from larger cats, that's easier... put a box over the kitten's food, with a hole just small enough for the kitten, and not...

Mine have been on Science Diet for quite a while now. I had them on Iams, and my vet suggested taking them off it, as it's quite high in fat (and one of my cats is.. uh.. well.. let's just say a little chunky Anyone else using Science Diet? Or have I succumbed to the Vet? Every time I got...

Well, it's looking like I didn't screw up after all. The kitten is doing just fine. Sniper (the 2.5 yr old) still hisses at her if she gets too close, but he let her play with his tail a couple of times, and has been witnessed licking her (he thought we weren't looking) :-) Target, the 1 yr...

Thanks for the support. I'm glad to know that others have been through this too!!! Target and Sniper get extra attention in the morning and before bed, since they have bedroom access. so I think that will help. I'll keep working at the three of them over the next few days and keep you posted...

I have two older cats - Sniper, a 2.5 year old male, and Target, a 1 year old female. I just added a kitten to the mix - Bullet, a 7-week old female. Well, I had full intention of doing the proper thing - keep them all separated from her for a week and gradually introduce scents... until my...

good ideas... there is another cat, he's a couple of years older though. And toys, tons of them, including a four foot tall climber/perch. But it's not in the bedroom... hmmm.. that's an idea... I could bring her scratching post down to the bedroom. Might help And yes, she's really cute! :-)

My 6 month old kitten is driving me nuts. Every morning at 6:01 am (yes, exactly 10 minutes before the alarm is supposed to go off) she gets up onto the window ledge above our bed. That's ok, I encourage that. The problem is: she paws at the window. Not just one paw. Both paws. Constantly. I've...
