Hello,
1) I've taken in a stray (is currently in the humane society) that has its claws - all cats I've had before my parents had declawed. I'm going to keep this kitty's claws but have a question that I haven't read about before. What do you do to save your litter box liners?! I scoop her litter box every day (sometimes twice a day) and would change it once a week. But when scooping I noticed a whole bunch of holes in the liner from her burying. Is there anything I can do to save the liners to make them last an entire week?
2) I will be moving in a week with the stray (maybe 2 years old?) and my 15 year old cat. They haven't yet met, and I'm moving into a house already with two cats (1 - 3 years old). Is there some way of lessening the stress other than feliway (is the feliway safe to use around finches?). The 15 year old wont care very much about the others, but I'm worried about them beating her up (my brother's kitten did and she wont fight/play back). The other three have claws, she doesn't.
That's all for now. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
