Thread: Lili's fate is sealed... :-)

Lili's soo sweet!! Totally agree with everybody re having one of Neevie's blankets (or even a nice clean & ironed tablecloth smelling of her!) ready for Lili to travel back on


We've never separated our new babes from the older cats - when Archie & Lily came to join our furry family in January we put their carrier in the hallway (our house is fairly open plan), opened the door and let them explore. Once they had come out of the carrier (within seconds literally!) I picked them up and showed them their litter tray, food and water and left them to make their own way back to us. All four of the 'big cats' were around and fascinated! We also never left them unsupervised & just carried on as normal. They slept with us at night as opposed to with the others. Within a very short time they were all used to each other, if a little wary. It wasn't long (probably about a month to 6 weeks) before they both decided that they were Big Cats now thank you Mum and wanted to sleep with their Aunt and Uncles ... There have been a couple of spats - some hissing and grumpy behaviour, but never anything nasty.
If Neevie's curious & Lili's shut away, perhaps Neevie'd be even more upset thinking that you're keeping something from her ... a difficult situation but try not to let Neevie know that you're apprehensive - the calmer you are the calmer Neevie & Lili will be I would think ... Bonne chance!
