...house for about a year? We got a female 5 month or so old cat last August and we had a dog. The dog had to be put down on Monday and we had been discussing the idea of another cat before that. Today we went to the local animal shelter and got a female who they said was about 11 months. We brought her home and set her crate down on the floor and our cat started hissing at it. The new cat has been exploring and does not seem to be phased by our current cat but she has been very territorial. Will this go away with time once they get used to each other? Or is this not going to work out?
Thanks for the great answers!! Will they be okay if they are left alone for a few hours starting tomorrow? The eldest cat was declawed but our new one (my mom's) isn't and I am afraid of her scratching my kitty, we're planning on getting her spayed and declawed in a few weeks.
