My first
instinct was to say, first own cat, then after a while, Kitty.
BUT.
Then I thought of my own move, when Gail and I combined our
respective
households -- me with Missy, Luc, and at that time Phoebe, and
her with
Tribble and at that time Kitty. We hadn't introduced them
all to each
other, even though we lived a hallway away in our apartment
building. It
just didn't seem like a good idea. When we moved,
we weren't too worried
about the females, who were all sort of loners and
wouldn't have territorial
issues. We were worried about our two big
Alphas, especially because
Tribble especially is so confrontational.
But when we let them out of the
carriers and they saw each other, it was
literally like:
(nose touch) "Dude!"
(ass sniff) "Dude!"
No
territorial stuff at all. (It probably helped, in the long run,
that
this house has 11 rooms and they wouldn't have to see each other at
all if
they didn't want to, but they didn't know that then.) So I'm
wondering if,
since there will be big changes for both cats anyway, it
would be fine to
introduce them to the new place at the same time, and
maybe there wouldn't
be territory wars. I don't know. Might be
completely dependent on the
cats' personalities, whether the original cat
NEEDS to be Alpha?

Subject: o/t established cat and new
cat
Hi guys
I'm sorry I've not been on the list recently.
(Trying to prepare to go to UK
again while working on an adopter for one of
my fosters.)
As always, all sick kitties are in my thoughts, and my heart
goes out to
those that have lost beloved furbabies.
I wonder if I could
ask you knowledgeable folks a Q?
The potential adopter of my foster,
Kitty, took her own cat to her parents
place while she moved house. She
says she now wants to establish her cat in
her new home before she takes
Kitty. Surely it wd be better if she used this
ideal opportunity to move
them together into the new place? Any opinions
much appreciated before I
get back to her on this.....I believe she plans to
remove her cat tomorrow
from her parents.
Thanks as always
Kerry
