It's All About The Kitties : )

[lovemall]

Hi to everyone, I am 'formally' introducing myself and my kitties but I have been posting for a while because I don't really know how it is done here. I was looking for information about introducing a stray kitty to two resident kitties and I ended up at the cat site and I love it. Lots of information, ideas, and mostly love for kitties!!!!! I have 2 resident kitties. Maggie a Tortie is 10 and the Matriarch, Button is a beautiful black 9 year old that lets the newcomer know she is next in line, and Lucky Kitty is the newcomer that showed up on our little ranch in Colorado apparently looking for a home. What was I to do??? I had to offer her a home and now I am working on convincing my 2 residents to accept her. LK (Lucky Kitty) is a long haired calico. All the kitties are girls. I took LK to the vet and no chip or ID. I got her vaccinated and had an exam done. She is young and healthy. Vet figured about a year. I have been working with her since the beginning of Jan. to fit in. She loves being in the house. I think she was somebodies house kitty. My story is under Cat Behavior/Need Advice on How to Progress Cat Introduction! New Cat, 2 Residents. That story caught my attention so I just jumped right in. BTW all my kitties are rescues. Here are my kitties.
LK is the avatar, Maggie in my pink bag, and Button in my drawer.

I am looking for information that addresses stress symptoms. Introducing kitties often produces stress and I would like to know what to look for in any of my kitties. Thank you

Welcome to you and your gorgeous furry family! If you want to ask for some help, there is a huge range of forum information here so it would be good to have a rummage around the threads (particularly the "cat behaviour" section for you) and if you don't find what you're looking for, you could always start your own!

Maggie was abandoned as a kitten. Found her in the country in ND 10 years ago. We adopted Button to give her company 9 and 1/2 years ago. They certainly have a sister relationship. Hiss and then sleep together. Both are having a hard time accepting LK but LK continues to try to make friends. Just love em all and never give up!!!

Welcome to TCS! Your kitties are lovely! And why am I not surprised that a tortie is the matriarch?

You must have a Tortie. Maggie is Boss but also my snuggle.
