Cat advice needed!
Trooper, 12M here has been fur pulling. It's nerves, not allergies. Always the same side. Been working with his vet, and are getting close to having to give him anxiety meds.
He pulls when home alone. Walking in the door after being out for the day and we are greeted with fur piles. If he thinks he is home alone he starts this horribly anxious crying.
I am thinking about getting him a friend is better than meds. A friend so he isn't alone when we aren't home.
Anyone have experience in getting an older cat a friend?
We've been home to the new cat - Kit - for exactly a week now.
The instructions were to keep her indoors for 4-6 weeks.
She's pining to go out, but we know it's a very bad idea at the moment.
She's 9 years young so very used to going into gardens.
I think we all might manage another week of this!
I'm trying to train her with a rattly tin of treats to get her to associate the sound with home & nice things.
Any other advice?
