I am one who tried very hard and didn't make it. I know a few here will be
annoyed at me 'coming out'; but the truth is, sometimes it isn't worth
trying. However, I did find a great 'substitute' cat-family to adopt the
subjects in mind, and everyone is HAPPY)
After all, it is the cat's well-being, not our attitudes that matter.

om...
i believe i have failed at introducing my new cat arwen into the
household (has one existing cat). too depressed to give the
details now but i'm starting all over again as of today. would like
to check if any of you have
posted long, detailed success stories about introducing a new cat to a
one-cat household, something
like a day by day diary, OR if you know of a site that has such
detailed guides. i have read articles
about inroducing cats but they are generally brief and i believe i
followed the instructions properly
(vanilla, rubbing with towl, keeping apart, short supervised visits,
etc). i now am going to start
all over again, having done more research, and adding feliway (which i
didn't have before), but am hoping for
inspiring stories to read and encourage me as i start from the
beginning again. if you've posted your story before, could you please
post
the name of your cat so i can look it up in google groups? thanks..
