Rajah the Bengal kitten loved to play with Nahla, our adult domestic female, and she tolerated him when he was small. However, the older and bigger he got, the more annoyed she became with him - to the point of being extremely nervous of any move he made and hissing and growling whenever he was near. She didn't want to chase, wrestle, and pounce the way he did! We wondered if another kitten with Rajah's energy level would help by giving him a playmate and hopefully leaving the grouchy old lady alone. We worried, though, that a third cat might just make matters worse, and poor Nahla would have two young ones annoying her. Cats are a life time commitment for us, so we were nervous to commit to a new kitten and make things worse. One day I noticed a video of a playful young tabby on an animal rescue site that has a "foster-to-adopt" program. He had beautiful markings and seemed like a confident little guy. The foster-to-adopt program gave us the opportunity to have the kitten in our home without a firm adoption commitment or spending any money. Anyway, it was the best move we could have made! Pasha is about a month younger than Rajah, and the two were fast friends almost immediately. Less than 24 hours together and they were playing, grooming, and sleeping together. Nahla is completely ignored by both; they play, and chase, and wrestle, and romp, and pounce to the point of exhaustion, then curl up and sleep together. Having three cats in the house is easier than having two. Feline peace has been restored thanks to a little rescue tabby named Pasha.
