We first got Jupiter two weeks back and he is 3.5 months now. We got 9 week old Watson last week and slowly introduced them to each other. After the initial hissing, swiping and growling, they now play together happily and it is very cute to watch.
Jupiter was a very vocal, shy and sweet kitten when we got him. He is still very sweet and has come out of his shell a bit more since Watson's been around. However, he doesn't 'talk' as much anymore. He's got conjunctivitis and is a bit upset about the medication and irritation in his eyes, so that could be it. But I also realize that Watson is a very bold kitty and is quite vocal. If he sees us carrying or petting Jupiter, he'd be there asking to be picked up or petted immediately. Watson has no problem eating but Jupiter is a finicky eater. I'm worried if Watson's personality is overshadowing Jupiter's. Also, Jupiter wanted to groom Watson and cuddle together but while Watson will play with Jupes happily enough, he says no thanks to being groomed or to sleeping together unless it is on us hoomans! I could see that Jupiter felt sad about it. Is there something we can do to help Watson be more loving to Jupiter?
