We've had a major break through on this EXHAUSTING . & ๐Ÿˆ ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ› have been FINALLY sharing the open space of the house w/out a barrier. Betty did VERY well, Stevie was understandably hissy and low level growly, but NO BLOOD & NO CHASING! ๐Ÿ˜ธ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜ƒ . No photos cuz staff needed both hands to keep them safe. flap will remain open in both directions except at night.

I'm pooped out! Lots of sessions today for me and learning to live without barriers. Stevie got to be inside the big carrier while, I hunted for treats on the He growled at me as I ran past him, but I didn't react. We worked ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›๐Ÿˆtogether for about 8 minutes. Afterwards, we got ham treats, in our separate rooms.

going on week 13. Humans are definitely fatigued. Last night's bedroom desensitization session went fairly well. ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›was pretty calm. I only hissed a little bit. After a few minutes dad took her away, and I got ham treats! ๐Ÿ˜ป Later we'll do the same on the . We're both taking calming drops. One week of this & then it's on to reopening the Catio cat flap to facilitate free range capability... ๐Ÿคž

Tonight it seems cat mom staff says it's time for me to learn that will indeed be allowed to come into the bedroom at night. Even with me sleeping next to dad. Even if I don't like it. Tonight n me will be occupying space in the bedroom together. She'll be in her carrier, while dad explains that this is gonna be " fun". One big happy family, right. Hmph. At least there will be ham.

@littlemonsters
Okay, this session seemed more successful ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
Betty gets off the hook reactive around food, seriously, like a great white shark, so having food around is risky for us all if she's not behind a door. Off camera she did some pawing at the carrier door, but it didn't seem to be too disturbing for Stevie. What do you think? Session lasted the 2 minutes it took him to find all the treats. Betty got the puzzle inside.

The Wave in the Midwest continues all week. Too hot for cats to be outside all day so conditions are mimicking winter conditions in that these 2 frenemies are going to be together inside for at least 12 hours. Pressure to establish mutual trust is increasing. *SIGH* This is wearing us down.

at lunch came to the screen door to my room. She was looking at me. Sitting all loaf ๐Ÿž like n stuff, but lookin' at me. I gave her a low growl and a good hiss. She still sat there. In fact she slowly put a paw on the screen. So I growled even louder and hissed again. She very slowly slunk away. I think she got my message ๐Ÿ˜ผ.

Week freaking TEN of for . This is day 3 of sessions at the screen door. Zero reaction from Betty, an acceptable low level of growling n hissing from Stevie beyond the door. He's up on the bed watching. This is post play n treat sessions. When 2 humans are home we work both cats at the same time. But alone, I can only do one cat at a time. and

According to Cats.com Tuxies have ..."been known to get along well with other pets" . Ummm, NO! Not OUR ! We are heading into week 10 of her and while there has been progress, it's been at less than a snail's pace! She accepted me, but is still struggling to recognize Stevie as a fren. And we're ALL so fatigued and exhausted by this process.

The new temporary screen door has been installed for , with on the other side. After testing for strength, clicker training, treats for being calm, and play opportunities were offered for both. First attempt went very well. Did 3 one min sessions. Then both cats rested a bit before Betty walked away & went to her sanctuary room while Stevie roamed the house.

Now Stevie can be on the inside getting a *Click* + a ham treat from dad, I will get the same from mom on the other side. Plus toys. But I'm not really into toys. ๐Ÿคž
