Hi everybody!
We are hoping to get a 3rd kitty today! (GETTING EXCITED...could hardly sleep last night!!!!)
We have an appointment with the vet this morning at 9:00 to have him luekemia tested, and if that comes back clear then we`ll get him his shots and have him checked over for worms, fleas, ear mites (Already been fixed)
We are hoping this does`nt cause any problems with the other 2 (namely Toby, the alpha cat) Our Toby and Tedy are both 2 1/2 years old , and the "newbie" is about 1 1/2 yrs.
Please pray all comes out clear and everything works out nicely.
This kitty is a real "lovey-dovey" cat....I hope he STAYS THAT WAY when he gets around these other 2 fellow cats!
We are going to put the 2 we have in the bathroom with some treats, while we bring the new one into the house and get him set up in a bedroom by himself for a few days or however long (???)....and will start swapping sents between the 3 of them tomorrow....although I`m sure they`ll all have figured out that something is going on before that!
How long shall I keep them iceolated from each other?
Shall I swap some of their litter back and forth for a day or two before I introduce the 3 of them???
I`m hoping and praying that the test comes back NEG and that he does`nt have any "creepy-crawlies"....so that we can bring him home TODAY! (Hubby, Larry, even took a vacation day from work today to be in on the ADOPTION!)
Thanks for any info and insite you may want to offer!
Linda
