hen I was a kid we had many cats. Living on a farm we had all kinds of animals around and I guess they were more like street cats, I don't remember because my family moved to another city when I was only eight years old. I don't even know if my family worried about the cats or other animals we had when they decided to move out to the "big city" in search for a better life. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'll have to ask my siblings who were older than me, although I doubt they will remember. It's been so long.
I have two cats now and I absolutely love them both. I became a cat lady and cat mom, who takes pictures of my kitties all the time and the other day I was watching videos of cats on the internet and I read pretty much everything about cats and there's this website that I found that has all kinds of good stuff it and guess what? I found out that both of my kitties names are in one or two lists of most popular cat names! What?? I found that so cool.
One of my cat is thirteen years old, Izzy and Katie is 3. Katie is pretty knew in the house so they are still separated... you know, we are in the process of introduction. Izzy has to accept Katie before they can be left alone together, so each has a separate bedroom and during the day we switch them around the house. One stays on one side of the house (office, our bedroom, bathroom) and the other has the other part (second bedroom, living room and kitchen/dining area). When Izzy goes to sleep in her day bed aka second bedroom, we close her door and open the door of our bedroom so Katie can roam around... At night Katie sleeps in the office, a place she chose when we brought her home, and Izzy sleeps with us. We switch their blankets and brush them with the same brush so eventually they will have the same smell and will be easier for them to accept each other or at least tolerate each other, and this in the case for Izzy because she has been living in the house for thirteen years now. She is so sweet and wants to be friends with Izzy but Izzy is not having it. At night we play with both, Katie in the office, which is adjacent to our bedroom and Izzy in the bed... Katie sits there looking at Izzy and Izzy still hisses a bit but way less than before.
It's a long process and they say it takes at least six months and so far Katie has been with us only for a month and a half so we still have work to do with them. But we certainly see the progress made so far.
What's your cat's name? Want to know if yours is on the list too? Check out their site here!
Hope you are having a wonderful day. Keep your pets safe and give them some love.
Talk to you soon! Cheers guys...
