Millie was fine, but Lily hissed and growled. We put it down to her being frightened as she had been neglected and locked in a room for a year with no interaction with anything.
Things have improved in so much they will tolerate each other. They don't seemed threatened or scared of each other.
They keep chasing each other, really fast then pawing each other but it seems quite nasty. Lily does not hiss so much now. They will eat at the same time but now Millie seems constantly to torment Lily.
It will be 3 weeks on Thursday so still early days but vast improvement in alot of areas but still a long way to go before we have peace and harmony.
Millie is a moggy and Lily is a long haired persian so perhaps it may take a bit longer to be friends, not sure. Bloody hard work!! Attachment 21205 |
I have the exact same problem, Alfie is a longhaired persian and Millie is a british shorthaired but he seems so much bigger than she is. He goes for her all the time and it seems really vicious. He was here 3 weeks before her and she arrived yesterday. I know its early days but im so worried she will get hurt. Plus she was diagnosed with Cat Flu so now ive had to separate them, so its going to be even harder when they get back together, any suggestions??
