I have inherited a nine week old male kitten from my daughter. She got it even though she knew she wasn’t allowed one where she lives. She’s has it for 5 days, the landlord found out and it’s either move out or get rid of the kitten, so good old mum stepped up. Trouble is I have a 4 ½ year old deaf, partially sighted female cat. She is a very friendly cat, very docile. My daughter bought the kitten round to us mid week to show us and the cat did nothing but hiss at it. Is this normal and how do I go about socializing them?
Also I am due to go on holiday August 14 – 28th. I use a cattery for my cat but will they take a kitten at 19 weeks old? I have tried ringing them but there is no answer which is common for them as they are always busy. The vets have said that they would give the kitten it’s vaccinations so that’s not a problem.
