Added a screen door inside to separate two cats (mine and roommate’s) who have been fighting. Roomate’s cat (cat #1) is the aggressor and tried to crawl under the screen. This kinda negates the purpose if she gets out. How should I secure it?
Note: I rent in an apartment and cannot make permanent changes. The screen is velcro-ed to the wall via sticky velcro. The floor is carpet.
I have a new friend who is celiac. I understand that any microscopic chance of there being gluten will make her insides upset.
I have a few recipes that are easy to make gluten free, but I want to make sure I don’t accidentally cross-contaminate. I heard that I have to either use new bowls/kitchenware and deep clean my oven? Or deep clean anything the food will touch?
I don’t know how to go about it, what are the steps?
Update from a previous post: After two months of using the feliway wall plugs around the apartment, and having no positive change, I still don’t know what to do. My roommate’s cat has gotten way more confident and has begun basically stalking and harassing my cat. She doesn’t hiss or growl, but follows my cat around the apartment and corners and chases her. My cat is very vocally upset about it and I find her hiding and refusing to come out. The other cat will wait around corners and mine will not leave the room unless I come and intervene. If my cat is in a room, the second the other cat walks into the room my cat is in, my cat’s ears go back and she immediately starts growling.
My human roommate wears headphones a lot and does not hear or notice the fighting nearly as much as I do.
I talked to them about how their cat is aggressive towards mine the other day because I heard a fight, went to stop it, and found her cat sandwiching mine in the crack between my dresser and my bed, and my cat had pooped herself a bunch.
HELP!!!
Edit: My roommate decided to try to bring their cat to the vet to ask about why her personality might have changed so much and why she has become so dominant.
We’ve decided to only let one of them out at a time, which is very upsetting because one will have to stay in their room all day while we are both at work. This is really the only thing we can think to do, but it sucks because they both beg to be let out if they’re locked in a room.
