Speaking of dogs I have a problem with my cats. I have to go away
for 2 weeks in a few days. I've tried to check out one boarding kennel but I couldn't find them. The thing is I would LOVE LOVE LOVE if they could get these 2 cats to get along! There is always hissing and bite marks and it is driving me crazy. I was wondering if there was a place that I could take them to that could acclimate them together.

I think the problems started with me when I brought in a very aggressive cat when my older cat was still very young. He dominated him, (Skutch) so bad that I had to find another home for him, (Oliver).

Now I have Skutch and Kitty Kat. Kitty Kat is young and sweet and I bet she would get along with another cat but Skutch seems to have PTSD or something. I took them both in the bathroom earlier for about 1/2 hour and after about 15 minutes Skutch stopped whining. Kitty Kat laid on her bad at one point which I though was good but then Skutch went over to her and she scratched him.

Can's we all just get along?

I need help with this and the fact that I am going away seems like a good time to get help.

Thanks all.

Skutch is in the front and Kitty Kat is in the back

1. Maybe call your Vet's office and ask them?
Perhaps they would know of a place to board them and help you with the aggression problem. They look like such sweet kitties too.
