Question
Hi, several years ago I rescude a kitten from some very mean kids, they happen to be a part of the family, and I observed them (well lets make a long storry short) by the time I could get the kitty from them she had a broken leg. Anyway I ended up falling inlove w/her and keeped her. We already had 2 cats one that is 19 years old as of now and about a 1 year old. There all females and get along great, well for the most part, baby wich is the one I kept grew up to be a well you know. They are all spayed and healthy, althoght baby is a bit over weight, they all go outside to potty and all is good. Anyway I got a nother kitten and baby will not adapt to him he is nueterd, and we have tried every thing you can think of. baby is not giving in and it has been a month. my little kitty is gettin scared aolt

Answer
Hi Tiffntrish,


Sometimes it takes a lot more time to have a cat settle in. Try a product called Feliway Comfort Zone. It mimics cats happy pheromones and relaxes them. This should help. Give Baby a little extra attention. Some cats feel neglected and will take it out on the newcomer.  And if this doesn't work, write back and I'll give you the name of something you can give Baby to calm her down. Good luck.

Ciao, Karen
