I moved in about two and half months ago and my room mate is very....well unhappy. She would hiss and my cat, and me, when ever she saw us (though she made no move to hurt us). I chalked this up to bring in a new, and much younger, kitten and that she would get over it soon.
Well I admit I was alittle hurt by this, animals have always loved me before, but well the simple truth was that she was not my cat. The problem is now she won't even spend alot of time with her, she comes in to eat and then she wants right back out (she is a indoor/outdoor cat). She won't even sit on my room mate's lap anymore.
I had hoped it would get better as time has gone by, but its been two and a half months and things aren't better. Does anyone have any suggestions? We have tried treats, and playing with her but she is rather old (seven to eight years) and just isn't interested in playing...I just don't know what else I can do. I feel so guilty....
