Unfortunately the other cat we adopted is scared of her and is still hissing and growling, but Blossom can now get within a foot of Muppet without Muppet hyperventilating and reacting. So they’re getting better. (We have been keeping them in separate rooms and only letting them interact a little bit more each day, so this is huge progress.) There hasn’t been any attacks, and they’ve had ton of smell interaction, including switching their food bowls. At this point, ongoing rounds of interaction is about all we can do to reassure Muppet. Blossom just wants to be friends. LOL!
We’ve started calling her Tiggles. She’s striped like a Tiger and energetic like Tigger from Winnie the Pooh, but a little girl… so somehow Tiggles seems to suit her.
Due to having lots of space now, she did completely wear herself out the first couple of days. A big coughing spell on day 2, and a long sleep afterward, but after that she seems to be doing well and building up her muscles.
Hopefully in a week when her allergy shot wears off she won’t react to anything in our house. I think you and the vet might be right about it being an allergy as she sneezed occasionally at first, but I haven’t heard any in a couple of days.
I’ll keep you posted,
Aurora
P.S. I attached two pictures, one of her smiling and one of her doing her squirrel impression… although some people are saying it’s her ground hog impression. She’s being coy about it and won’t tell which. She’s decided to keep doing it until we figure it out.
