  • Here's our new home for the summer! We're moving in today, unpaching our stuff and the cats finally met each other 💛
    If you missed my previos video here's a brief explanation of what's going on:
    We moved out of our house in march since our rent contract ended and we didn't rent anything for the past two month. Now we agreed with our American friends who are leaving their apartment and their cat for the summer that we'll live in their place, look after their pet and their apartment. So we are very blessed to have this cute place for the summer. Our house in the village isn't livable yet so we needed to rent something anyway :)
    Thank you for watching! ✨

      You can check the description box, I wrote a brief explanation there :) I’ve been talking about this in one of the previous videos - our house isn’t livable yet (it needs more renovations) and we moved out from the one we were renting because our rent agreement was over in March. This is our friend’s apartment that they left for the summer and we’re going to live here while they are absent to take care of their cat and the apartment. So it’s our place only for the summer :)

    The best way to introduce cats to each other is to keep them in separate rooms and have a closed door between them for a few days. They can check each other out by smelling and looking under the door and get used to each other.

  • @bonbonvegabon
    @bonbonvegabon Год назад +12

    When we got a new 4 week old kitty, our 3 yr old cat was having none of it and she hissed and howled at the new kitty for 4 days. On day 5, they were both curled by side by side on our bed after we got home from work, taking a nap and they were best buds ever since.

    Your videos are so lovely. My life couldn't be more different than yours, but it doesn't matter. I can feel your genuineness and joy for life, how much your family members love each other. it's like reading a cozy novel, slices of your life that are so transparent and real, and even when you're tired it feels good, like you're doing everything to live your life the way it's right for you. Thanks so much for sharing it!
    Small piece of information, Jackson Galaxy is a cat expert and he has tons of videos with tips for cats being introduced to each other, or anything cat related for that matter, his channel is super informative and has helped me tons with mine!

    Nice video, Vika. So sweet to watch little Agatha, helping her mama put things away in the cabinet. Had to laugh though when Agatha, climbed up into the cabinet! So funny 😂. Your girls are both so sweet and resemble one another. Adalaine, (spelling? sorry) sure gets around fast on the floor. Big sister, Agatha, is a help to mama and her sister. By the way, looks like a very nice, comfortable apartment. Happy to hear cats are adjusting well. Oh my, a male and female cat….might there be kittens later on? Nice to see Tolya, is home with you. Did he graduate recently? What type of job is he interested in now that he has completed his studies? You’ve got so many things going on all at once. Because you’re a very busy wife and young mother, please remember to take time out for yourself. I enjoy watching your videos as the content and editing is very well done! I am a 74 yr. old widow in USA and enjoy watching, clean, fun, everyday happenings. Watching young children engaging in life brings me happiness as I think back to when my children were that young. Ty for sharing Tolya, & Vika. Take care and God bless everyone. Sending hugs to all. Your video friend, CarrieJo/North Carolina, USA 😊❤

    What a beautiful apartment! Have fun there! Your children are so adorable! I can't wait to see what the town looks like. Good thing the cats get along. I have had a cat for 15 yrs. Then I moved to a farm and got two new ones, and my old cat keeps chasing my new ones away. She refuses to accept them, even though it's been almost a year. I think she thinks the whole place is her territory, and no one new is allowed. Luckily there's plenty of room for everyone. lol.

  • @katiepope4445

    To introduce cats you should keep them in separate rooms for a couple days and then switch the rooms so the can get use to each other’s smell. I hope it works out! It may take a couple weeks. Be patient. Best of luck!

    The best way to introduce cats is slowly, feed them with a closed door between them, let them get used to each others scent. Jackson Galaxy taight me. But feeding them together anyway is good i think... they will associate each other with positive things eventually.

    Cats are territorial and should be introduced gradually to one another and not thrown together. Ideally keep them separated initially if possible in different rooms until they get used to each other’s smell. I would separate them at night to avoid bullying and fights. Eventually in a few days they will tolerate one another until they become playmates. The orange cat initially may feel his territory has been threatened and want to protect it.

    Cats are very territorial. Best introduce them gradually. Your kitty must have her 'safe space's where she knows the ginger cat won't be and the same for the ginger. The ginger is experiencing your kitty as an intruder on his territory. I also have a cat baby girl, named Maya.
    I hope you settle quickly and Tolya can finish your new home! 🇿🇦

    The furniture looks nice on the video. You are becoming a pro at moving. I am looking forward to seeing more remodeling of your new house.
