Thread: How to integrate a second kitten

Funny you mention that... when handing out treats, we always make sure to give Tatja the first treat, then Monty, and the last one is for Minnie. Perhaps it's just symbolical because Tatja has had to tolerate two invaders and we want her to feel she'll always be our First Lady. But I suspect in reality the cats have a very different pecking order where Minnie is Top Cat and poor old Monty is Bottom Cat.

With all due respect, I am not keen on the suggestion from the breeder. It would make Freyja feel even more insecure and abandoned if you locked her somewhere she can't run to you for comfort.

And yes, we were stressed out as well when introducing the newcomers... I even had a very long talk about my fears with Minnie's breeder before taking Minnie.

But I understand there's already developments with Freyja and Wicca. That is interesting. Don't expect the hissing/growling to stop suddenly... it's a gradual process.
