Ive never posted here but some friends of mine suggested I try
this.....
Do any of you know of someone who will take in a very tame loving house
cat? Its a female cat who is a lap sitter she loves to cuddle...She's
about 3 yrs old and is not spayed. A friend of ours could not keep her
and so we took her in a few months ago.
Recently we took in a new cat in our house and the two do not get
along. I feel terrible about surrendering her to the pound since she
is just so loveable. If anyone has any information or suggestions
please email me at Celiessecond@yahoo.com
P.S. Ive called several of the rescure groups and so far have hit a
wall every time.

They might get along better if the first cat is spayed. I would try that
before anything else.

PS -- By the way, why would you be thinking about getting rid of the
first cat, when she was fine until you got the second cat? Maybe you
could find a home for the new one? Hope you can keep both...

There is no need to give this cat up. There are a few things you need to
do. First, get this cat spayed ASAP. Not doing so puts her at increasing
risk for cancer and a deadly uterine infection, not to mention the
possibility of pregnancy, which will only contribute to the already
overwhelming overpopulation problem.
Second, *completely* separate the cats for a week or two (you can
alternate where they are) and allow no contact, then start over and do a
very slow introduction. You can learn more about how to do that here:

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."

- W.H. Murray
