Good news!!! They are now roomates in our walk-in closet! They have thier own sides (brand new Booda Dome litter boxes, food, water and beds), but they are now roomates and are tolerating each other nicely.

Its been raining here a lot and I didn't want Livvy out in it. So she's been hanging out in our bathroom. That got old quickly, so I decided to see if they could get along inside vs. outside.

I put some Rescue Remedy in their water and gave each of them 1/2 a Clomicalm (rx for anxiety) and sat with them. This was on Tuesday and they are still getting along! :)

They hissed a bit at first, but now they are living alongside each other. That's the good news!

The not so great news is that I really think Jonah is diabetic. He's lost so much weight since I rescued him. He eats a little, but not nearly as much as my other cats. He drinks a lot and pees a lot. On Tuesday, I'm taking him into work to get a blood test. Hopefully if he is, it'll be treated with food. There is a diet called M/D by Hill's that would be perfect for the roommates as its a low/no carb diet that would help Livvy lose weight and Jonah with his levels.

I'll let you all know how that goes on Tuesday. :)

Keep us posted on the blood work! Glad things are working out with them being together. I wish you could just being another one on in and they all get along! I hate having to keep them shut up in another room! I feel cheated not having them sleeping with me, crawling in my lap and stuff. BUT....they have feelings too and it takes time.
