Re: Adopted cat integration
A little update All of our cats are getting on slightly better than before. There are still signs of aggression but they are becoming quite a bit less frequent. It seems that Coco and Aphi don't really see eye to eye. Coco really should be an only cat. Aphi still will chase Barney but seems to be mu...

Re: Adopted cat integration
I thought I would write a quick update. We seem to have made some progress this week. Aphi can now be trusted not to go bananas when she sees the other 2 and we have been able to relax a bit and not have to stand on guard all the time. Still early days - she still show signs of unpredictability and ...

Re: Adopted cat integration
Thanks for all the encouraging words. On Saturday we thought that we were making a bit of progress. Aphi and Barney sat very close to each other in the garden. Coco and Aphi had a bit of a stand off in our lounge - they were about 4 feet apart and were growling softly at each other but they didn't f...

Re: Adopted cat integration
Thanks for the kind words. At what point do you throw in the towel? It is still early days yet and we are not contemplating the possibility that they wont grow to like each other - we hope that they will at least tolerate each other. However, is there a rule of thumb in relation to a timescale when,...

Re: Adopted cat integration
Hello again We have now had Aphi for nearly 4 weeks and integration is still a problem. She still acts very aggressively towards the other two cats. Barney is pretty scared of her. Coco is more aggressive towards her. This morning Aphi saw Coco through the window in the lounge door and they were swi...

Re: Adopted cat integration
Aphi is literally about half the size of Barney. The photos don't do the difference justice :) I am curious to know what will happen to Aphi's coat in the winter - I would imagine where we live is a lot colder in Winter than where she comes from. Maybe we will need to a little coat for her :) Today ...

Adopted cat integration
Hello This is my first post, I would appreciate any responses. We have 3 cats: Coco is a black female and came from Cats Protection. She is a feisty little one. Barney is a very handsome tabby and white male stray we adopted at our last home after his former owner moved away and abandoned him. He is...
