    Patience. Gradual introduction is the key. Put the cat in a room with litterbox, food, water and scratching post. Go in and get down on her lever and quietly whisper to her. Take a towel and rub down your resident kitties. Let the new cat smell it, so she gets used to her scent. Do the same things with the new kitty. Rub her down with a towel and let the new kitties sniff it to get them use to the scent.

    Get down on her level and toss treats her way, gently talking to her. It's gonna take time and patience. But in the end, it'll work out. Just give it time.

    I'm sure it will work out, it sounds like Nikki knows how to handle the situation so that's always a bonus!

    She was such a sweetie pie and she did get a little cranky but overall she did very well at my sister's but of course she knew us but doesn't really know them.

    So we'll see.

    Thanks!

    Well Niahc is here and not happy about the cage situation right now. Poor guy was used to being free and now stuck in a cage oh well at least it's only for a few hours.

    I'm just praying that he doesn't have FELV or anything which I don't think he does, he's just older looking poor thing.

    He's very pretty though and I'm going to try to get some pictures of him but right now he's being quiet so that's what counts.

    I hope this rescue place will take him if not then I have to figure out something, he can't see well it seems only out of the side of his eyes so I can't just toss him back outside but I can't take him home either.

    I hope this place will take him.

    Melissa

    Oh, Melissa, God bless you and keep you, you are so good and kind. Thank you so much for all you have done for these babies who otherwise would have had no one to look out for them at this point. Please take good care of yourself, now!

    I just lit a couple of candles for you and the kitties.

    My kitties and I, and all your other PT friends, are all wishing you the very best.
