Hi, so I want to tell you all the story, it's a bit sad but I need your help.
Around 3 weeks a friend of mine found in the trash 10 kittens, abandoned. They were sick and dying so he went to the vet, stopping everythin, even to save those animals.
The vet tried to save them but almost all of the kittens but 4 died.
From there we gave the four little rascals some medicine and special food that the vet gave us, paid the bill and then took them. 2 of them were adopted right away, but since my friend works like 12 hours a day and I work from home I decided that the best would be if I took them and take care of them until somebody with a good soul adopt them. Both are female and are like 6 weeks, and are very active and cute but I have an older cat, like 3 months now and I tried to introduce them a week ago. There was a lot of hissing and dirty look but now that's not the problem.
The little kittens dont like to be in a room all day and vet bored, and I try to get them out and room in the house but my older kitten seems to pat them and then bites them, in the neck and now in the tummy and I get really scare because the little kittens scream and I need to separate them.
My first question is, is this a normal behaviour? Or my old kitten just hates them? Maybe she doesn't want to hurt them but plays very rough.
I would like to everyone in the house to get along until somebody takes the kittens away.
I'd appreciate any advice, tips or warnings you can give me. I think nobody wants any kitty to suffer by any means, and I'm not very experienced.
Thank you all
