[@JayofallTrades]

Mine hissed and were a year apart but twins like Sakura and Persephone. But they didn't like each other even though the door between them like you should introduce them. My younger one now has a kitten to play with and my older outdoor cat has run away :(

[@im_sour7102]

We got all three of our cats at once because they were a package deal, for like $20 (they are half feral street kittens, not quite full grown when we got them.) and the two girls HATED us. The boy cat, Percy, liked us a little more and would let us pet him a little. But the girls would not. Eventually one of the girls, Hecate, ran away into the woods and we haven’t seen her since. They were all medium sized when we got them, Heca was the smallest, and then Artemis, and then Percy was the biggest. That still reigns true to this day. The two cats that we still have love us a lot, and Percy will headbutt you if he wants attention which is so cute. Artemis is a little more standoffish and doesn’t like to be picked up, but she loves chin scratches. Percy is really far now and weighs almost as much as our small dog. He’s bigger than the dog for sure, but the dog has width to her than he has. They’re both chunky ngl. Artemis though is a petite little girl. She weighs like half of what Percy does, it’s crazy.

[@lizk2378]

Cats sometimes can take a month or two or more to get used to each other. Just straight up introducing them without easing them in will often result in Sakura's reaction or MUCH worse. Cats are super territorial, feed them separated by a door. Then scent swap in their territories (take items from each other's rooms and place them in the other territory). Slow introductions are best or else it can really end in blood and vet bills. Feeding them near one another is the BEST way to introduce cats, especially if they are food motivated. Given how Sakura reacted, she's actually not that bad. She hissed, but did not look especially scared and violent.

[@TheSiobhan12]

Because the kittens are not vaccinated going near Sakura is not a smart idea!!! Till everyone has had their jabs from the vet, I wouldn’t. Also they are not staying so why needlessly upset queen Sakura!!! 😻

[@junoxmusic]

the way Sakura reacted is totally fine. It's VERY rare for cats not to hiss and hide from each other at the beginning. It may take several days to a couple of months until cats get used to each other. So if you actually want to introduce the cats, you need to be a little bit patient. I know we all want our animals to get along with each other, but it doesn't work like that unfortunately

[@GrimmDZ]

He knows! He even said in the video it's going to take a long time for them to get use to each other so it's all good

Yes agreed! But I do think cats are more likely to get along than young dogs.

[@skyalexis02]

@@karamelibee it's quite the opposite actually! where as dogs get more attached to people, cats get more attached to places so they tend to be more territorial even from a young age! as long as puppies are socialized properly they rarely have problems being introduced to other puppies!

@Tracy Lynn No, I believe every cat on its own is different. It can be that your male cat is submissive or just afraid of a new cat. I'm not really sure how you can make it better. Maybe with food goving to both cats at the same time when they are kinda close to each other

There are very specific ways that cat get acclimated to eachother. They will almost always hiss and act like sakura did, its not that she cant or shouldnt have a friend, its that you need to get her used to the other cat through sent and with a door between them and stuff. Just introducing them isnt an accurate representation of if they will get along.

[@eponine1966]

Thank you for saying what I was thinking!! 🥰

[@karamelibee]

Yes thank you. This is what I was trying to express. I appreciate the way you put it. I dont want him to think Sakura cant get along with another cat just because they dont like each other immediately. I think Sakura is actually pretty CALM towards the kittens, she is hissing but only in a "you stay over there buddy" kind of way. Much better than the "wtf imma kill that demon" reaction. And ive had cats who had a very aggressive first reaction turn out fine.

[@GinoPagnotta]

@@karamelibee yes! If anything Sakura is much more calm then a lot of cats I’ve seen when they are introduced. If anything, with the amount of meowing Sakura does and the curiosity she seems to have towards the dogs she would probably benefit from having a cat friend!

Im sure other people have told you but, please please don’t grab any of the kittens or especially full grown cats by their scruff!! It can be painful for them and cause them to be stressed and anxious, mother cats know where exactly to pick them up by the scruff to not cause any harm or pain and they only do it within the first few weeks of a kittens life, you can also look up all this information if you want to be sure I love watching your videos of you fostering pregnant animals or animals with babies, but I hope you see this so that it can help you understand that it is not good for them so that you can improve your fostering of cats

[@debbiedattilo6562]

[@starcycle4308]

Cats very rarely get along at first. Most of it comes down to patience and time. Our fluffball cat HATED my new cat at first, but now, 8 - 9 months later or so, and they can roughhouse like sisters.

[@karamelibee]

Yeah imo cats have to be living in some sort of distress to be mean to each other long term. I think cats actually learn to get along pretty smoothly. Even if it takes a bit longer, you reach a point where you basically can just let them be. Like I would say the first 3 days I had to keep my cats separated when I was away (they both got a bedroom and would get a chance to share the house if they stayed away from each other). That part was admittedly stressful. But around day 4 they started to sit by each other occassionally. Now a couple months later and they are totally bonded.

[@yousosilly9817]

You do realize this dude only takes care of his pets for viewing right? The animals are super disassociated. Except the small ones that don’t know any better. This ass does NOT take care of the animals he takes in. You can see they are just great animals, but he’s not a great owner.

[@Adrian-Maxwell]

@@yousosilly9817 I disagree that he only takes care of his pets for views. If that was the case, he would've kept Shadow and Moon. He's not a vet or an animal expert. I'm not going to say he's the best owner (I personally don't agree with him fostering/adopting all these animals, especially pregnant animals, when Wolfe has made it pretty clear he's not a fan; it's great he's helping strays and saving them from kill shelters, just wish there was a way for him to do it without hurting Wolfe in the process), but I'm not going to say he doesn't care about the animals in his life

If I recall, in cat genetics, male cats are more likely to have their fur be closer to their mother's. Also, white unless it's completely white or color point, is spotting. Like, the other colors are supposed to be everywhere if not for the fact that it can be covered by white genetic paint. And the genetic paint is in levels. Like spotting level 5. There is a level 10, which means that they look completely white, but genetically, they have a pattern underneath all the white, and it can be passed down. I think that's how it works... Don't forget Dilutes! Cream I THINK is a dilute of red, aka orange. And grey of black. Usually blue eyes isn't common in cats that AREN'T a specific white, which I think is why these kittens are rare? And white fur and blue eyes makes one more likely to have... I think deafness? Unless it's in the breed I think. I am no expert, I get my info from looking up cat info online due to being a warrior cats fan, and wanting to know what genetically accurate warriors would look like, because those books aren't. AT ALL.

You know the reason that Sakura is hissing is because they're not her kids, if they were her kittens she wouldnt react that way, it's simply because every mother has a mark a smell just a simple indication that these are her kittens, they get this now when they're bathed when they're born anything that their mom can do to them. That's why it's usually best about to bathe the kitten because if you do it can mark the scent off of the baby in the mall could be confused but at this age of your kittens you dont worry about that. the smell that's on the kittens is different to what Sakura is used to, so she's going to react badly to meeting them which is why I've kind of dreaded the meeting.
