water bottle? Does it work & how long?

[Malibu's Mom]

Forgive me I did not explain everything. We are watching this cat & we have another cat at home. The times that this new cat has been out, the two cats always have fought. I don't know when my friends are coming back but until then, these two cats can't get along.

Please forgive me from the sounds of it, its just that I put a cat in a room. That certainly is not it at all. I take her out and play with her in my bedroom for most of the day anyway.

That's alright! I did see that you were watching the cat and that it was temporary. I figured there was a reason why you had to keep her in there, too. There's nothing really wrong with keeping a cat in the bathroom. It isn't ideal, but we can't always keep cats in the most ideal environment. I have a cat in the bathroom right now, actually, but she has kittens so she's pretty busy.

I've actually kept cats in that sort of situation, so I know how frustrating it is to keep them both separated and happy. If it's possible, maybe you could section off part of the house for the new kitty with baby gates? I cover the baby gates so they can't see each other. Some cats jump over them, some respect them. It's about 50/50. Anything is worth a try to save your sanity!

Feliway can help a lot with fighting kitties, too, by the way. Here's an article I always recommend to help people with this issue - here it is. It has some training techniques that help get cats used to each other.

I really hope you can solve one of the issues. And I also hope your friend will come back soon to pick her up so you can get back to your normal life!
