Ok - the first face to face is behind me. Let me tell you what happened and please give me any suggestions, comments that can help.
As soon as I let him in to the den he went after her, swating. She of course was hissing and growling and she started swating back. I grabed her to get her out of the line of fire. Loki just circled the room seeming to clam down, used her litter box and ate her food. Then he tried swating her again. Piper
was growling the whole time and it even took about 10 minutes after I removed him from the room for her to stop growling.
The whole scenario took about 10 minutes. I have a feeling that Loki might also be reacting to her growling and hissing.
I'll try again in abt. 2 hrs. once everything has calmed down. And yes I did try and distract him and her - more success on his side.
Since I took her in due to unfortunate circumstances I was aware that the previous owner warned that she dosen't always get along with other cats well. She was supposed to be an only cat!
Help!!! Thanks
