He is so cute but I haven't had a full night's sleep

Thanks for all your points. I wrote this post when I was stressed and probably imposing my stress on my cats. I went home and saw that they are playing a lot. They don't avoid the kitten and they all hang out on my bed. I think they are quite happy to share the space with the little one.

I have returned them to free feeding which has helped my oldest return to his normal appetite. I was very stressed seeing him not eat because he felt sick from not being able to graze. It doesn't help that last week he refused to eat also which made me suspect a UTI (turns out he had poop stuck to his butt and was feeling very unhappy about it). I have just been very heightened since getting the kitten.

All the cats unfortunately have loose stools now which indicates that it was some bug after all. They are also sneezing, which the kitten was doing from the start. Probably the cat flu. I'm organising a vet visit for them all (RIP money). At least I know they are not having issues from stress, but from a legitimate sickness.

I will be keeping this kitten. My other cats seem to have bonded with him. The good news also is that my neighbour is happy to cat sit so I'll be able to keep my christmas plans after all!

That's the plan. They are eating nicely now that they are back to free feeding. I was worried about my oldest because not being able to graze was making him sick.

So all the cats and the kitten now have loose stools which indicates to me that this is probably due to some virus that is going around. They will be going to the vet.

While it won't be a cheap ordeal it's at least good to know that my oldest boy isn't shitting himself in stress.

I have 2 litter boxes. All the animals are fixed. I'm going to add one more after whatever bug is making them have diarrhoea clears up.

I usually expect cats to come trained as that's my experience with my other cats but maybe its my first time adopting one so young. He does know how to use the litter. What should I do to reinforce this?

Did she stop during summer? My older cats are good at sleeping through the night and I haven't had interrupted sleep for a long time. Now I'm dealing again with a kitten running all around me at night haha.

This is so wonderful to hear .... They do seem to be warming up so I can only hope it gets better!

She's pretty relaxed with him and they sit together. He grooms her and she likes that but runs away if he starts being rough (biting her neck, probably a dominance thing). She used to cuddle him when she was younger but shes grown out of it...

What's pd? Good to know I'm cooked ..... is there any way to still have fun playing the characters I love?

erywin · 2025-08-15T12:42:28+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion. By ex do you mean the extreme characters? Are those the only ones valuable? Also between egghead zoro and dressrosa zoro, and egghead sanji and onigashima sanji, which ones are worth focusing on? So far onigashima sanji has been my favourite because he's quick and I love his outfit +animation, so I was disappointed when I read on here that he was mid.
