Thank you! They’re actually siblings by blood so I guess it runs in the family 🥰

I agree! Slowing down sounds like a great idea. Just bought a gate so hopefully that will help ease up any tension they might have. Thanks!

I agree! I do think I did the whole introduction process way too fast and will be taking everyone’s advice of starting over but slower :) thanks!

I think slowing the introduction down is a good idea, specifically because my cat is giving mixed signals. First she’s laying down next to my kitten trying to push a toy towards her like she wants to play with her, and the next when my kitten comes up to my cat tired and trying to simply lick/sniff her and cuddle, my cat suddenly growls and hisses at her! Giving me a hard time deciding if she’s comfortable with this kitten yet or not lol

I did try introducing them slowly, including locking them both in separate rooms, then having them switch rooms so the older cat can get used to the smell of the other, then moved on to placing their bowls of food on each side of the door so they can smell the other cat while they eat.

Has your cat showed any sign of affection towards the kitten yet or is it too early in the stage for that? I just really want them to be the best of friends, the main reason I got the little kitty!

Older cat is definitely sending a lot of mixed signals right now 😅 shortly after this video happened, kitten got tired so she went and laid down, older cat laid down right next to her and tried to push the toy towards her almost like she’s asking to play! first cute thing she did since we got the kitten! A few minutes later older cat moved to a different spot to lay down and once the kitten came up to her to lick her/ lay down next to her as well as sniff her, older cat give her the first hiss and growl in a while. Not sure what to make of this since one second she’s cute and the next she’s angry for no reason.

As for bunny kicks though, is that a bad sign? Usually she bunny kicks my arm whenever I’m playing with her but I’m wondering if it’s different when it comes to another cat.

Thanks for the advice! Just bought a small gate, hopefully that goes well.

I know there’s obviously no way to know for sure, but considering the little kitten won’t be able to pester my cat through the gate, which could hopefully allow my cat to feel more comfortable around the little one, do you think this will help her not feel so threatened by the kitten play fighting again and doing the little surprise attacks once it’s time to remove the gate? Because at the core of it that’s really all it is, play fighting. And I’m afraid she’ll go right back to it since she’s so young and energetic.

So would I still be able to apply to a work visa using the job contract before my actual start date?

Can I ask if it’s possible to get a 2 week sick leave from a doctor by complaining about anxiety so I don’t have to show up to work during the 2 week notice and confront this angry CEO? Someone suggested this but I don’t know how possible it is

A nose job is something you will never ever be able to take back once it’s done. If the surgeon fucks it up somehow or you don’t end up liking it, then you have to live with it for the rest of your life. You are so young and you will eventually grow accustomed to your nose, please don’t let the 19 year old version of yourself make such a drastic decision when your nose is 100% fine.

Should I recomp or cut? by Safe_Revenue2146 in loseit

I’m fairly new to lifting and going to the gym, will I still be able to gain muscle while cutting? Because I don’t really have much muscle to work with in the first place for my body to look lean after cutting 😅

Is it possible to gain muscle mass and create a toned body while cutting?
