Thank you! Yes, that is the concern that most of it is USA made, but parts of it are shipped in and you don't really know what's in it.
I also just found this:

I think losing her older brother is part of it, I think she feels alone when we are gone, sometimes she won't look us in the eye, she's very sweet and doesn't want to bother us. It's just sort of a feeling I have just knowing her.
I have a 6 year old female cat (used to have two, but my older cat died in Dec 2019).
I feel this cat has low self esteem and is lonely and it doesn't help that we work all day and she's home alone. Tried adding another kitten who was 5 months old when we got her. The resident cat was hissing...
I took back one of the fake plants and the other one is way up high on a shelf the kitten cannot get to. I can close up the shelf when I'm gone so I won't worry about the flowers anymore. kitten is like a magnet to them, her radar zooms in to them wherever I put them. Now she can't reach...
Thank you all for the great ideas. I will try them, and yes, maybe I cannot have nice things, but I gotta try at least!
(one of my kitties isn't interested in the fake plants, but the other one definitely is) - I did think of getting them some grass to eat since they are inside cats. I have to...

Update and more questions!
Things have been going well so far. Yesterday the resident cat was laying on the floor blinking at the kitten, rolling around and I felt really good about things, that they were starting to "negotiate". Then, the kitten approached him as he was rolling around and...
The resident cat does not usually go in that closet, in fact NEVER does.
Tonight he hung out on the bed mostly and the kitten approached him from behind trying to smell him. Resident just sat for awhile. I admit I was sitting to one side of resident so he was not completely exposed from behind...
Tonight ... 2 1/2 hours together
Played a lot and kitten would come to the resident and go away and play, come back to the resident and then go away and play. Bubbles and play play play.
At one point the kitten ran and charged the resident cat, the resident cat did not react, just sat there! I...
You've both given me hope. I will keep trying.
play-feed, play-feed, play-feed is my new mantra! But I am going to do shorter meet and greets with them and see if that helps - do you think that is good?
When the kitten starts going for the resident cat, should I just let them do what they are...
