I need some advice, I was coming down my stairs from my flat and there is a young Kitten (4-5 mnths old) running in the lobby
He was terrified to start off with, but quickly came to me. I am going to be putting up posters and put an add in local paper. but
me being the big softie that I am, I
was contemplating adopting Him. that was until a few minutes ago
as most of you know I have My Misty who is 17 and when I lost Hamish (I did think of getting another cat to keep him company)
but cat's being cat's I decided not to, mainly because I did not want Misty being harrassed by some other cat/kitten in His elderly
years or having his nose knocked out of place.
I took the youngster into my flat (Misty was sleeping in the bedroom) and He was having a good old sniff around the place,living room
kitchen etc,etc I went to the bedroom and let Misty smell my hands, he also had a good sniff but seemed unconcerned
5 mins later the youngster walks into the bedroom and Misty saw Him first, curiously He followed the youngun sniffing, I was amazed
by His hackles not being raised and his relaxed body language
The youngster on the other hand when He turned round and saw Misty immediately went into the defensive position, and for the
size of Him the noises of gurring and spitting were pretty loud and aggressive, and what does my Misty do in return..............?
Nothing, no change of body language or facial expression, Not a thing
The wee butter then ran of into the spare room and went behind the pc, Misty casually followed, still sniffing the carpet all the time
when He got to the spare bedroom doorway, the little cat started hissing and growling again, I was kinda expecting Misty to be the
aggressor, after all, it is His House !! at that point I decided that was enough, I'll try again and will see what happens, I know its only
their first meeting
Ach I dont need this just now
has anyone got some advice for me HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
