Sorry to hear things are going badly...
. I scanned over the introductions thread that was recommended to you and it appears to have some really helpful info. I've unfortunately never done an introduction myself, but I'm sending vibes your way!

And even though intros can take a while to begin with (or so I've read), I've also read about the wonders of using Feliway and vanilla extract to divert the cats' sense of smell. Feliway is a little pricey, but its supposed to be worth it. Good luck!!!

Thanks for the link
I just brought out both little boys for about 5 minutes one at a time and held them on my chest..........they are sooooo sweet and both have big purr boxes for small 13 week old kittens
Chubba Wubba (the mother) loves to be held if I can get her out from under the bed
Once again both kittens got snarled at and hissed at by my original 2 Raggies
I am just going with the sliding door cracked about 2 inches for now....but my 3 original cats only approach the door to take a peek maybe 2 times each per day
I am going to try and be patient even if it takes a week or more
I am seriously considering a big 2nd cat tree for my family room. The one I like cost $175.00 LOL! I just gotta justify the cost after spending $800.00 2 days ago to buy my 3 Ragdolls
Maybe I will snap some pictures tomorrow if it is a brighter day cuz using a flash gives blue eyed cats "red eyes" everytime so I need the sun to shine through the window to take a decent image
The boys uncle was 28 pounds in weight and I held him at the pet show.........What a monster he was.....so I will probably call my biggest male "Brutus" cuz he should go 20+ pounds when full grown...LOL! Wish me luck!

Thanks for the heads up about Ebay........I saw the exact cat tree at about 1/2 the price......too bad I got outbid thou
Later tonight I will bid on a smaller one that would be better.......I gotta get a big one cause the Raggies are gonna get HUGE

I have decided after days of testing the new Ragdolls to the older Ragdolls..........that tomorrow (Friday) will be the day
The 3 new Ragdoll kitties have been brought out 2 times a day for about 5 minutes at a time...... The 3 new Ragdolls are being hissed at barely
and NO real aggression has been seen today
My original 3 cats have pretty much excepted these new home invaders
I have posted one set of images on the "Fur only Pictures" forum .............more will follow in few days if ya love Raggies like myself

They are beautiful cats I just got through looking at them. So have you named the boys yet. I don't remember seeing if you did or not.

Welp.........The good news is everyone is tolerating each other
My original Ragdolls (mother and daughter) are hissing and growling still......but are excepting the fact that the fur family has grown here
I have both brothers + my mixed breed 9 year old male all sleeping on me as I type this
I just can't believe that I am a slave to 6 cats now
Please save me from this invasion of the furry beast
