I have 2 female cats currently, 1 is 9 years old, the other is 10. I'm fostering a 4 week old kitten currently, and am wondering if it might work if I actually keep him.
My 2 cats occasionally fight, because noise spooks them.. so I figure a kitten running around would get them more used to random noises happening, and not freaking out at the slightest thing. Also, the younger of my 2 cats torments the other, because she's much more playful, and pesters the hell out of my oldest. I'm also thinking that maybe the male kitten will preoccupy her so my oldest can have a little more peace.
Currently they don't like the kitten. The youngest is terrified of him, and the oldest just stares and hisses through his carrier (then proceeds to go upstairs and eat).
The odd thing is, usually they have replaced aggression when they see strange cats and will go after eachother, but haven't with the new kitten..
Now I'm rambling
