can you take Charlie in and put him in your bathroom or a separate room until you can find him a home?

I live in a 4 room apartment. I really don't think Squeak would tolerate him. She's very hateful to outsiders. Sometimes even to me.

Ummm... how about taking him in and rehoming Squeak, lol.
Sorry.... sometimes that's just what I feel like doing with my own guys when they are meanie heads and my fosters are sweetie pies!

Have you tried contacting your local no kill shelters?

Squeak was 4 weeks old when she found me. She was in an abandoned car screaming her head off when my ex-husband rescued her. It's kind of funny because I didn't want her when he brought her home, but she quickly made me her human.

I have not tried the no kill shelters, but that is an option. Thanks. I just wish there was someway I could keep him. He is such a sweet boy! He rolls over to let me pet his belly! He would rather have lovin' than food.

Pawla,

Never say never. Cats CAN be introduced gradually if done properly.

Try putting the newbie in a room with his catbox, food and water. Play classical music on a radio and go in and visit every chance you get. Rub him down with a towel an allow the older cats to smell his scent, then vice versa. Stack a couple of baby gates in the doorway and let the cats see, sniff, growl, hiss, whatever. After about 2 weeks, take down the gates and let them be. Have a spray bottle handy just in case. There WILL be growling, hissing, spitting. As long as there is no bloodshed, just let her show him where he stands in the hierchy.

Male/female is alot easier, believe me. Of course, that's only my opinion.

I would give it my all if I were you. He needs someone like you.

Can you take Charlie in and keep him isolated until you can call a shelter.
As you say you dont want some lunk head to run him over.
We are praying that you can help Charlie.
