I'm so glad your mom agree to let you get her, and also agreed to let you try and train her rather than just taking automatically getting her declawed.
Believe me, no one is happier about it then me. I couldn't get this stupid uneasy feeling out of my gut. So I'm glad she agreed and I hope the kitten doesn't destroy everything like my sisters cat -__- She would use plants for a bathroom, ripped up the carpets, chewed buttons off the sofas..O.o Anyway, I won't let it happen with Kiba, I'll have lots of time to spend with her in training..Do you think it would upset Smitts if she knew the kitten was in my room with me? Like maybe she'd like I don't like her or something..But I don't want to leave the kitten alone either..and my mom works during the day..Anyway, Smittens never been overly affectionate..she likes being around you, but not cuddled or held. In the long run, for ppl who have had one cat for a few years, then get another, does the older cat enjoy company? I mean we're not always home and stuff. She doesn't seem to like anything like that though..erm..Patches, my sisters cat, use to annoy smitten I think..she never seemed like she liked Patches, but she could still be attached with her..right? Sorry for stupid questions..Smitten was my first and only cat. I just want both kittys to be happy ^___^

Oh, how long does it generally take? Like for an extra nervous cat? (She flipped out at the 'cat' in the TV stand for atleast a week maybe more..and that was her reflection!!! :X:X:X And how do I know when I can introduce them? I planned to put the kitten in the carrying case first..to make sure...Do you think 8wks is to young for a 5 yr old cat?? K sorry again -_- I'm done this time..
