Hello fellow feline friends.
I have a 3 yr old cat & I just adopted a 5 week old baby. They are both female. I've had the 3 yr old since she was about 5 weeks as well. She has been an only cat til now. I keep the baby in the bathroom in the tub away from the 3yr old. Over the last few days I've kept the door open and Gg that's the 3yr old goes in and peeks in on Bb. She hisses a bit then she runs out or lays by the bathroom door just watching. She has not displayed any aggression other than hissing. Until today. I put Bb in the carrier by the door when I shower and usually Gg walks by hisses and keeps moving. Unfortunately, today she stopped growled and tried to claw the kitten. I sprayed her with the water bottle. However I'm not sure if that is the correct action. Any advice on how I can make this transition smoother?
