My sister brought her kitten over to our house (she's SO amazingly cute), but our cat, angel, is...well...very hostile toward her. She follows her at a distance and glares at her. And sometimes when the kitten is just sitting somewhere -mostly under the couch- angel stalks up to it and snarls at her. I'm afraid they're going to start a fight. the kitten doesn't really stand much of a chance. Is there any advice on what I should do?

Does your family/you spend more time with the kitten or do you just pay attention equally? Because I got a new kitten a few weeks ago -my cat Mogan had kittens!!- and the kittten Titch was being snarled at by the other cats Simba and Scruff, it was because I payed attention to both the cats, as i was saying was that your cat could be jelaous maybe you could spend time with Angel too? If Angel is being down right agressive towards the kitten disipline her by GENTLY tapping her on the nose and say "No" it worked for my friends cats. It's mostly because theres a younger cat around and Angel probably feels left out and replaced, try spending time with her it worked for me. If that doesn't work then I have no idea.

ha, thanks. *nose-tap: NO angel!* I think i'll try that. I've mostly been kinda patting her in the side, but that doesn't do anything. And I think we have been paying more attention to the kitten. my family pampers angel aaaall the time. She's definitely jealous and probably pouty that there's competition. even if it's just for ONE day. She actually started chasing the kitten a couple hours ago. It's so weird how she, an 8 year old cat, feels threatened by a little scrap-of-fur kitten! lol
