Thread: Integration *sigh*

Hey Alekto,

I'm in Derby, in the UK. I think I've just been seeing things a little squiffy. The talcum powder thing didn't work with her, a bath is not going to happen but we have been stroking her (with protests) to help shift her loose hairs. I am taking her to the vet tomorrow for a check up, to get whatever is needed for her pirate eye and if needed some laxatives. She is much happier today (still a moody cow) but I'm not so worried about the state of her, she is more social with us, not eating properly yet but she is drinking. I think either I am going to find a nasty hairball somewhere or a poop that wasn't in the litter tray.

You know when you make a post that you wish you had never made? Last night I was tired, had just finished work at 11pm and was assuming the worst.

Right now she is bullying Cpt. Nemo and rushing around after him and she hasn't had any Serenum. He is loving the attention from her and thinks it is all a game. Still a pirate, still twitchy. Almost heard a meow!

and Felliway? No go, not again. It has a really odd effect on her and no effect whatsoever on him. Fingers crossed this isn't me being overly excited or jumping the gun *knocks on wood*

At this point I'm thinking that we didn't really rush the introductions, that they were moving at the right rate and we did have the no contact again for a few days until he rudely barged out and chirped at her. (I have looked over my previous posts and I don't think I have been the clearest on all this :S)

Has anyone tried the Pets at Home kitten/puppy coconut wipes? I'm thinking of using these for her instead of the feared bath.

The stories are reassuring, the advice, well, I've done everything I could find written down. You never know with cats. She could be a misery tomorrow. Scrap that, she will be as she hates the vet.

Edited to add update/photo: This is how they are now, you can see mucky Cpt Nemo and the pirate at the top with her eye
