so I did something really bad. Well I did a few things really bad. To start with, I brought a new kitten with me to the house I'm now living in, which has a 7 year old cat who is used to being the only one. Still all went well until I started to move my stuff in....this meant I had to keep the door open, so either the new kitten runs outside and gets lost, or he going into the room with the other cat. That said, they didn't kill each other, the older cat hisses and growls alot, but thats it. So I took a deep sigh and let him up with me when I'm there to watch them.
The problem is this older cat now doesn't want to come in the house anymore. She comes in to eat and drink then its right back out she goes. Now my kitten is sure she is going to be his next playmate and follows her everywhere. He does keep abut 5 feet away though, looking around corners and whatnot.
Then I was going though the door, I had my hands full and my kitten runs up the stairs. I freaked out and tried to block the path with my foot. low and behold the older cat choose that time to try and run out the door, which means I ended up kicking her.....I feel so bad....
Now everytime she sees me, she growls and hisses. She every tried to attack me when I petted her. This is driving me crazy, I have always gotten along with every animal i met. Is there any way to fix this?
