4 years in the making, 4 years of everything - from stitches, inappropriate urination, cats coming & going (fosters, deaths, adoptions, births)..... anti-anxiety/anti-depressants, feliway, rescue remedy, you name it, we did it.
But we're here. We're all able to co-exist without bodily harm or hair flying (too much hair anyways).
Peace.
This is everyone, on the same floor of the house. (Albiet some are up on the counters "safe", but the ones who hate each other know the other attacker/victim is there).
TigerLily
Eden
Molly (she has chronic herpes, so don't mind the eye - flare up right now)
Dorian Grey a.k.a. Dorky Fish or Dory
Ophelia Rose (Pardon the eyes - she was to the vet today for verification - eye infection
)
Twitch
TigerLily is plain old cat aggressive. Twitch is the dominant one. Ophelia Rose is an aggressive girl - hates other females, will tolerate males. Molly & Margo have about one stick in their bundles, if you get my drift.
Eden is the easy going girl, and Dory is the accepting/laid back male.
There have been long term fosters, short term fosters, cat aggressive fosters, adult foster, kitten fosters. There have been births, there have been deaths. Some I got as adults, Lily was my only (first - last - only) kitten that I kept.
You see so many threads, and I was one of many who posted one about having issues amongst cats. But the reality is that no one wanted my "problem child" Ophelia Rose. I either kept her, killed her, or put her in the shelter to be killed.
Just don't give up. If Ophelia Rose can learn to live with others, if Twitch can learn to live with others - most any kitty can.
