Hey guys, can I please get some vibes for a resolution to some issues my brother and SIL are having with the kittens they adopted last month? I just got off the phone with my SIL, who was pretty stressed out. No need to go into detail, since I'm working with them on this and have plenty of good advice courtesy of TCS. I just know they're feeling pretty frustrated right now. To be honest, I'm actually really frustrated at how they're handling the situation.

Anyway, some vibes would really help everyone involved - kittes and humans. Thanks so much!

Lots of vibes coming from Colorado! It can be very stressful adding cats to a household, especially when it doesn't go smoothly. Y'all don't even know how stressed I was at times with Ginger when things weren't going well. But as I type this, she is laying on top of my monitor stretching her front paws out to me (aaaaawwwww!). She was my upstairs nurse when I had the flu this week, she and Trent are mostly friends, and Ophelia is...well, Ophelia is adjusting but it IS improving.

All this is just to say that I know how they feel, I know how frustrating it can be to be at your wits end, I know how frustrating it is for the cats too. But once it settles down and everyone becomes a family, it is so very worth it!

Thanks, guys.


My brother and SIL are wonderful people who love their animals, so I know with some time and patience things will work themselves out. Just the other day, my SIL was relating cute, funny stories about the kittens (Jack and Dori). They're happy to have them as part of the family. It's just been a long time since they've had little ones in the house and everyone is going through a period of adjustment. It's definitely a learning experience.

Please keep those vibes coming!

Just wanted to thank everybody for the vibes and let you know things are going much better for my brother, SIL and the kittens.
The frustrations they were having were the result of some litterbox issues, which have since been resolved.

My brother is so funny about the kittens. He's a man of few words and won't come out and say he likes them, but once you get him going, he'll tell all kinds of cute, funny stories about them. He describes Jack as "catzilla" and Dori as "a little airhead." That's his way of saying he loves them!


Thanks again!
