I am the tiny mighty moe but really I am a kinda nervous kitty and that is just a front I put on. I like to meet new people and new animals but this Ivey cat is really got me worried. I tried several times to be friend her and she was mean. Now she seems to be tolerating the others and they tolerate her cept Callie still hates her and she tells her so all the time.
I am still kinda scared of her and mom is concerned for me. We have all kinds of calming stuff going on and she gets a double dose of rescue remedy and I get some to (it should help me be less nervous) we got treats and cat nip, lots of cat trees and cat beds but it still doesn't feel like home here to me right now. I spend most of my time outside in the enclosure and I never did that before IVey, I run for the pet door when I hear anycat growl or hiss. Just tonight I was chillin on the floor next to mom and Ivey was in the chair next to mom and she had to run over to the chair right above my head and then she tried to pounce on me, mom stopped her and then she water sprayed her, but I was too scared by now and so tonight I am sleeping outside again. This has changed my whole personality, I am a happy go lucky kitty that loves to play and now I am just not really in the mood for play and I have never cared to much for treat time, and never beeen a big eater, so I don't get to involved in the family activities, and now I cannot even enjoy my mom time.
sad little moemoe out.
oh yea sad sigh the ivey cat seems to adore my mom and mom would still give her up for my sake if she could find her a home that she knew she would be safe in. Moma love moemoe

Oh little moemoe. :( I'm so sorry that you're stressed. Maybe your mom can play with you and Ivy at the same time with a wand toy. Then you can see that playing with Ivy is fun!

Big purrs for you sweetie!

So sorry to hear about you and Ivey.
Hopefully things gets better soon.
I know the calming collars work for some of us...but not for others. We also have a stress spray. Don't use it to much, but it does seem to help.
I usually stay in my house on the cat tree....it usually a pretty safe place from Zeeke. For some reason Zeeke likes to pick on me. Than other times he loves me. Grammy says it's so funny....we can eat together....than right after that Zeeke will start picking. I'm getting better...I will take us for myself sometimes. Zeeke just looks funny he don't know what to do......
Try that...Swat back one or two times. Let her know she can't do that.
Have a great day.

Hey Moe!
This makes me so sad. I also don' tlike the tiny devil thats come to live here. Basement cat has come to torment me and he's a midget.
That said, mommy and daddy say 'time, all it's about is time'.
There is something that your mom might want to try..its called 'composure'. It does help.

I should tell you that Natalie so far doesn't like us. She tolerated us in the beginning. Now she's in the bedroom, and she's alone in there without other cats. Sometimes it makes mom sad, because Natalie craves more company than she can get because the TV and rest of us are out here.

Moe, when Smokie came in and began to adjust, he took over 'top cat' position. I don't much care, we don't mind each other so much. He keeps the BUB at bay. But the way we live is so different...and it's hard for humans sometimes to see our dynamics. That said, maybe your mom can give you some 'alone time' and some time alone with her in a 'safe space' that you'll like.

Remember Moe, we love you. And things work out-they do. Hang in there.

love Ruffy

Hi everyone and thanks for your support and encouragement, this is hard on mom really she worries about me cause I am so little and nervous,she knows I still sneak up to the food bowl and she feeds me alone at night, tonight we checked my weight and it is still the same so yaaa she was worried I had lost weight from stress but no I didn't.

Oh Orange Ruffy thanks we forgot about the composure treats, mom looked and didn't find them so she is gonna order some for her tomorrow I don't like treats. Moma did give me and my sibling calie and tiny alone time with her tonight and it was like old times for us we all loved it, I played like a kitten!

Thanks tabbies we are gonna do some more reading mom does that a lot and maybe find some more tips.

Hi Kibbles mom has thought about giving that collar a try to see if it will work on moma ivey.
Monido please feel better, sweet heart, moma does play with all of us but we are too scared to play most of the time ivey takes all the toys from everyone cept for callie.
