Oh dear I've been put in the dog house. I've brought back the foster kitten (unfortunately he didn't get adopted this weekend). So I thought instead of leaving him in the kitchen I'd introduce him properly to my Molly (7yr, neut female). she was not impressed, cue hissing and growling. Kitten has been relegated to the kitchen (not really because of the hissing, she wasn't taking a swipe so i figured he was safe enough, but he started to scale my vintage net curtains). Now neither of them are talking to me. If i go and stroke either of them I get a dirty look and no purring. I feel really bad, how do i get the cold war to end?

lol maybe you will have to do some grovelling but cats never forget it dosent look too good for you adopting a mom and kits though, what a shame as rescues couldnt function without foster moms

My cat has a best friend cat, I tried to fuss him and my cat ran and stood inbetween us.

Took me ages to get him to come to me as well.

I've left mine in a cattery. When I get back he will follow me around the house and wail if I go out of sight to do anything unreasonable like laundry.

There has been somewhat of a thaw in mollycat. She spent last night firmly on DP's knee being lovely to him/ thoroughly disgusted with me. Today she is being full on drama queen. Insisting i move over in the bed, wanting to be lifted on to the couch, she is also fake limping (ie just when she thinks i'm looking). she clearly thinks she has been to lax in her demands seeing as i have time for "the intruder".
