The whole situation is getting worse here, I have feliway plug ins upstairs and downstairs hoping to calm things down. Barney and Spangles seem to have excepted this addition to the house, Toffee is just being her normal shy self, Mollie the head of the clan has had a few spats with the new cat. My main problem is with Bigears who over the years has seen an increase in the population, she has always been OK, slightly shy but generally OK. But Yesterday I realised she wasn't indoors when I got up, I could not work out how she got out due to the cat proofing. Anyway I bought her back indoors and fed her, she refused to eat either her normal food or temptations which she loves. She just sat there shaking and shaking, I locked them all in while I went out came back 4 hrs later and Bigears is still shaking and still no food had been eaten.
I let them all out in the garden around 5ish, it the became apparent how she managed to get out, she litterally climbed the the brick wall of the house at an angle, knowing that by doing this she would miss the fencing and hopped into my neighbours garden. All night she has been out refusing to come back in, this morning I have fed them all, Bigears appeared on top of the fencing again refusing to come in, she seemed pleased to see me and I fed her on top of the fence, while she was eating I picked her up and bought her back down, but she wasn't having this and went straight back up the wall again.
This house has never smelt of cats, they've always been clean as far as grooming and toilets are concerned, now with this new addition it smells awful, who will not use the litter tray properly, and is generally upsetting the rest of the house, it has now been nearly 2 weeks since she arrived.
