It appears that Ophelia is trying to regain her Alpha status, which is fine, but she also seems to want to exert her authority when the two new girls are the most vulnerable - in the litterbox. This is not acceptable because I certainly don't want the new girls to be scared to use the litterbox. This also led to the worst confrontation they've had so far between Ophelia and Mojo last night, as Mojo is VERY protective of her litterbox! (She's fine with the others using the litterbox, and she's gotten to "trust" me scooping it, but she really doesn't like me messing with her litter.)
What can we do to ensure that this ambushing in the litterbox doesn't become a habit for Ophelia? She's not doing it to Trent, who she grew up with. Just the new girls.
All are covered boxes, all in different rooms/areas of the house.
