Hi I have 2 cats right now good thing is both are very sweet =). I have different concerns for each of them.   Adult cat is very friendly and loves people. I think someone abandoned her cause she is way too friendly for a stray. She loves following people but she meows so much. I think its because she is scared of being abandoned again =(. She is spayed and me and her rescuer with take her Saturday for other things regarding health. Do you think after some time she will realize that she is safe =(. I am fostering her till she finds a home. The other cat is a kitten who hides a lot =(. She loves being petted however and is friendly, I just wish she would come out more often. I am going to get her vet checked and vaccinated when old enough. I have another kitten who is socialized(vaccinated) that I keep her with. Will my socialized kitten help her out in becoming confident?  Thank you for help.

Your adult cat may just me a talker - just like people, some cats like to talk, some don't.  she may not need to talk quite so much when she gets comfortable and is feeling secure.

The kittens will most likely become friendlier as she gets used to her new place - a new human and new sights and sounds.  Be patient with her and allow her to come out at her own speed.  The other kitten will help with this but make sure they are both health cleared before introducing them.

Thank you for caring for them.

Thanks for your reply =).

I wanted to say the adult cat is very clingy not that its a bad thing  but I literally can't go to the other room without her escaping XD. She is also jealous and wants all attention to herself from humans.

Any tips ?

Thanks
