I have a year old resident cat - Kitty, who is more of a independent one. About a month and a half ago, I brought home a 10 week old kitten - Clyde, who is very sweet and rambunctious! I started them out in separate areas of the house and introduced them slowly. All seemed well so I let Clyde out into the rest of the home. He is constantly trying to play with Kitty, which is normal, but she wants nothing to do with it! He also will not leave her alone to potty or eat. I have more than one litter box set up around the house but when Kitty is using the bathroom, Clyde attacks her in the box. Same goes with eating and drinking. Kitty is extremely stressed out - not eating or drinking, not acting herself at all and having bad stomach issues and diarrhea. She is on medicine to help her stomach, but I'm so worried for Kitty. She comes first.
Any suggestions on what to do? Do I rehome the kitten for the sake of my other cats health and happiness? So stressed out! I love them both, but Kitty was first in the home.
Thanks in advance!
