Laura, I feel for you I had one like that! He tore up all my
other cats, and it got so bad I had to keep him in one section of our
house. He was about two when we rescued him and we had to do this for
ten years until he finally got so old he decided he'd rather sleep
than fight!

Natalie, I'd like to hear about your method of introductions.
and I'd love to know how many cats you have. I assume you must
rescue too.
I have what I think is an excellent set up here. I have an entire
little guest cottage attached to our house that has never housed
guests other than cats :-) I
My bf and I care for over 20 feral cat colonies a day (around 143 cats) and
what I see in the colonies is much more peaceful than what is going on in my
packed condo. I do see some scuffles perhaps at larger colonies or those
in problematic spots, but most cohabitate pretty well though their
Yes, rescue group since 1992.
I have over 70 cats - in our house. Huge garage, built condos there, and
they have outdoor enclosures for warmer weather. I use full-spectrum lights
and no one has been sick in years (unless they come in with something).
I put two large cages together, door to door,
Thank you, Dana, I will try this. I'm desperate and Blizzard is a good cat, I
just can't understand why he is the way he is.

Right now there are five cats on my bed and it can be up to 7 maybe even 8.
That is not to say they don't hiss at each other. Once settled they look
like angel kitties.Mine arrived at different times as well. The hardest
one to adjust is Daisy. She lost her BEST BUD during the feline leukemia
There's a book by a Dr. Nicholas Dodman called The Cat Who Cried For Help
that has a chapter on feline aggression- it may not be the absolute answer for
Blizzard (or others), but it is informative and it may help... :-)

Wow, Natalie, that is impressive. You definitely have a lot
more cats than we have. I'd take in more if my hubby and I
weren't so ancient (77 and 88) but I'm afraid when we die
we'll leave a bunch of orphans. It's a constant worry, and
we have no rescue group to help.. We're it!
No, I
Good for you with 10 cats. It's nice to know there are many of
us who either rescue or have ended up with lots of cats.

Consider providing for them in your will. I had a lawyer draw up one
leaving everything in trust for the care of my guys.

YES, we have provided for them, and I want someone to continue the work...am
actively assessing younger people who work here, how they interact with
cats, reliability, etc. I still have a few good years in me..unless I'm
hit by a bus tomorrowNatalie

There is something about that magic number of 8 cats that I've been hearing
about for so longwhen you have 8 cats, one is bound to pee where it

Daisy started marking when she came in heat. She had an appt for spaying. It
was at a low cost clinic so I could not get an earlier date. That was the
first of many times she peed on my headboard. Nothing like waking up to
that., Oh and yes she has very strong scented pee. It has actually gotten
16 matches
