I hope she gets along with Hayley as well. Hayley has not been introduced to Callie yet! Callie and I are still at work. We were told she is 8 weeks. If she is, she is a small 8 weeks but she is eating and drinking water good. I'm a little nervous about introducing her to Hayley. I hope Hayley will not be mad at me.

yeah !!!! a new kitty !!!!

Do not feel obligated to introduce them the first day. Callie might need testing first and she might want some time alone to get used to her new home first.

Well as you can tell by my signiture, my husband decided he didn't like the name Callie so he changed it to Mandy. Since I only had her for about 3 hours I decided it was okay. So her name is Mandy. She is in her own room at the house and Hayley is in hers. We are keeping them seperated just in case! I have to take her to the vet on monday. That's the only time I could get. She has a bent tail so the doctor is going to take a look at that. She says its more than likely just a birth defect. It don't slow her down anyway!

She is following me around all ready! She even cries when she can't find me. Hayley hissed at her and jumps after her. I don't think Hayley is too happy to have this new little kitten in her house. Please tell me it will get better! We keep them apart when we are not with them because you have to keep a close eye on them! Mandy is hissing back so I guess she can take care of herself a little. I'm not taking any chances though. I would love to see them cuddle.

Tigris was here one day earlier than Filou. They were 15 resp. 12 weeks old. They did not talk to each other for one week. I became desperate.
Then one day: big attack. And ten minutes later, both were lying in the same basket sleeping and cuddling together!

Do not worry ! My cats were also hissing at each other the first day !!And look at them now ... they cannot miss each other for one minute!! They even follow each other to the litter-box and wait patiently till "business " is done , and walk back to the couch together!!!

Mandy and Hayley should become best friends in no time. BTW I just love the name Mandy. :) I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of pictures of her.

Lut, How long did it take for Inka and Maya to stop hissing at each other?

How exciting!!! :) I can't wait to see a picture of her and to read about all the wonderful fun she's having in her new home!
Where did you get her?

The hissing will take awhile to stop....this is where you'll use those wonderful patience skills. :)

Mandy is a great name. And 2 kittens ought to be friends in no time.
My 1st cat and my 2nd cat (both gone now) HATED each other.....for about 3 days. They were inseperable from then on.
On the other hand, it took a full year before Thumper (RB) was accepted into the threesome.
So it varies between individuals. Patience and try to let them work it out by themselves (supervise from a distance)

Your so lucky to have a new addition! Congrats!!

To make the introductions go a little smoother, I would take a towel and rub the new cat with the towel and then go rub Haley with the same towel. You want to combine their scents so that it is not such a foreign smell. Do this for a couple of days with the same towel.

You can do the same thing when you bring a cat back when they have stayed at the vets and have that foreign smell (which produces hissing siblings).

Good Luck and have fun! I'm so envious!

Nakita, do you want a playmate???

Hayley loves Mandy! She even cleans her! Mandy seems a little uncomfortable when Hayley starts licking her all over. Maybe Hayley thinks she smells! I'm just so happy they are getting along. Mandy was to the vet yeasterday. She is between 5 and 6 weeks old and is just a little over 1 pound. She has to go back next thursday and she and Hayley are being treated with deworming medication. (Hayley again!!) I'm hoping to get pictures really soon. I don't have a digital camera so I am waiting to finish the roll of film so I can get it developed. I get my pictures put on a CD so I'll be able to post them as soon as I get them from the developing shop. I can't wait for you guys to see her.

When I brough Puma, Happy and Chris home, all within a few days of each other, my established furkids did not even so much as to give much attention to them, except the ones who usually protest for having a new furikid(s) to know, namely Fawn and Cookie. They all fit right in, and even Otis, my dominant male. was not bothered by their introduction.:D
