Hello all! Brand new to the forum. Hopefully you all can give me some advice on a couple things. As a new cat parent, this is completely new territory for me!
Husband and I rescued two 8wk old kittens last Wednesday. They are sisters. One of them (Pippa) is definitely more afraid than the other and even after 5 days still hisses at us when we try to pet her, pick her up, love on her. Is this cause for concern? How do we help her acclimate?
The other one (Kate) started sneezing last night after she fell asleep under our couch. She has been sneezing off and on ever since then. Should I be worried that she is sick? She is still acting sweet and playful, so maybe I'm just paranoid? Could anyone give me some advice on whether or not this is worth a trip to the vet?
Thank you for any advice for this first time cat mom!
