I have a 6 year old female cat (used to have two, but my older cat died in Dec 2019).
I feel this cat has low self esteem and is lonely and it doesn't help that we work all day and she's home alone. Tried adding another kitten who was 5 months old when we got her. The resident cat was hissing and angry for the 4 weeks we had the kitten. We were able to give the kitten back to the shelter.
I'm at a lost of what to do for my cat. How can I build her self esteem up? I've wondered about trying a smaller kitten as a 2nd cat (I think the first one was too big for her and she was scared). She is the sweetest cat and I want her to be happy.
Any suggestions!? How do you build self-esteem in a cat?
