Hi!
I am new to the board and was looking for some feedback regarding my current situation. My bf and I live in a tiny (and boy do I mean tiny!) apartment. We have had Tela (female, 2-3 year old) for about 2 years. We have just adopted Isis (female, 1 year old) and after reading all the articles about introducing cats have seperated them from one another. The concern I have is that the only door in our entire apartment is to the bathroom and yep, you guessed it, the bathroom itself is tiny. I am feeling bad for Isis to be confined in such a small space, but also want to give ample time to Tela to get used to our new family member. So far, they have hissed at one another through the door and Tela seems none too pleased at the new guest. Does anyone have any advice or tales of happy endings with introductions of two cats??? I am new at this and feeling anxious, nervous and under-prepared!
Thanks.
Megan
