Alighty, well me and my roommate adopted yet another kitty the other day. Her name so far is toonces and she was adopted from Petsmart, which shelters kittens from a nearby shelter. She came in as a stray and ended up being at petsmart for over a month. =/ It was very sad, and she has a brillient little personality, very playful. She is about 8 months old and looks much like my other black kitten, Nebula, who is about 6 months now.
ANYWAY,
Down to the problem.
When I got my second kitty, Nova Nebula picked on her and growled all the time and basically threw a hissyfit....literally, lol. But after only about 3 days they were best friends.
Now I wasn't expecting a completely smooth transition when bringing Toonces into our apartment, but it seems as though the other two are really ganging up and being extra mean to her. She's such a sweetheart that I feel she is feeling rejected in a way and is having a harder time adjusting because she just wants to play with the others, and they just WILL NOT have it. I have already tried a few things, and i've tried the quarintine/separation thing and toonces just cries to get out and join everyone else that I feel horrible to keep her there in the other room. She's adjusted well to me and my roommate and the apartment but i'm just unsure why Nebula and Nova are just being so rotten. If anyone has suggestions about something that has worked for them or something, please let me know.
Thank you,
Nebula,
Nova,
Toonces,
And Crystal.
