Got a new kitten 2 weeks ago. She’s settled in brilliantly. Very loud, confident and sweet. She cane from a house with cats, dogs and children. She’s taken brilliantly to my children.
She’s currently living in my bedroom.
She is now desperate to get out and explore, makes a dash for the door whenever it’s open.
I have a dog and a cat, both 6 years old. Dog very kind, but chases things that run and is cross at new kitten as she has taken his space in the bedroom. Dog also very good driven and has previously run into the bedroom and eaten all of the food, before trying to chase the kitten.
Cat is aloof and a bit bad tempered. He is very interested in kitten, and can be found sitting outside bedroom door.
Articles tell me that all signs in other animals sound good. They’re accepting the kitten.
But now what?!
Do I put a baby gate in the bedroom door and let the kitten come and go as she pleases? Will this keep big cat out? Do I need to keep big cat out?
I’m so feeble it’s ridiculous. I just don’t want this tiny gentle kitten getting hurt.
