We got a kitten about 4 weeks ago, he is adorable, crazy and the most affectionate kitten I've ever met. He came from a household with 5 cats.
Our adult cats were allowed to meet the kitten at their own pace. They are less than impressed. Boycat will play with the kitten occasionally and is happy to coexist with him but kitten wants to play constantly which he shows by pouncing on boycat non stop. We discourage this.
Girlcat won't go near the kitten, big angry hiss if it so much as looks at her. Kitten seems to be starting to keep his distance from her and getting that she doesn't want to play.
The kitten is not allowed upstairs so the adult cats have their own space and they have food and water there as well so they can eat without being bounced on by the kitten.
Any advice for helping them all to accept each other? It will get easier when the kitten calms down I think. Is feliway worth a go? I'm regretting letting dh persuade me to get a kitten because of the stress on my lovely cats, but we have him now so we're just going to have to get through the crazy kitten months until it all calms down.
