    Hee hee. This is why I've never fostered.
    We were going to foster before we got Jax, but then he came along and we didn't have to foster.

    I must admit, I'm glad you were a foster failure. Emily and Bob are two very lucky kitties. And I'm glad they didn't upset the original krew.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Oh, it's not perfect, but it's improving. Bob and Jane just had a spat and I'm not sure who was growling. I thought at first it was Jane, but it must have been Bob. Jane was too calm. I think Jane was trying to play with him and he is still adjusting to this household.

    But no, no major upsets. Just have to soothe egos a lot.

    Well I'm also glad to hear that you failed at fostering. I know I would too so this is why I've never fostered. I'm glad to hear that they're getting along fairly well. My females are the ones that aren't very accepting to newbies and they will even fight with each other or their older male siblings too.

    Have you tried using Feliway spray or plugins at all? Sometimes it'll work well and sometimes not. I've used it in the past but after a while my cats seemed to become immune to it. I look forward to hearing more about your krew of 5 and hopefully seeing many more pictures too. Good luck.

    Feliway? It's no where near that point yet. :whew:

    The krew members are setting their individual boundaries again and it will take a while. It does require a lot of diplomatic loving on my part.

    Yeah, I took in Kimba with the intent to find him a home. He's still here, even though my other two are not real fond of him all the time. They will adjust, they always do. I am glad your three are very accepting of the "new guys".

    So how many cats does it take to make a Cray Cat Lady?

    When your friends say, "You're taking in ANOTHER CAT?" Yep, that's it.

    I'm not sure but my family already considers me to be a "Crazy Cat Lady" and this was probably when I only had 2-3 cats at the time. Even people at work know that I love cats too. I'd rather be accused of this than being an animal hoarder or something worse.
