where to begin... the two cats are not happy having to share their space. especially gray, whom i've had for almost a year. so we keep them separated when we're not at home and usually when we're asleep. but they seem to be yelling at each other a little less when they are in each other's presence. which leads me to think that they'll at least be able to stand one another in a few weeks. other than that, seret seems to be suffering from a bad tummy =(. the vet was over today to give him his first shot and some anti-worm stuff. we're hoping that it might be worms, but he also gave me the name of some special food for upset stomachs, that i'm going to see about getting after work. in the mean time, he's pooped and peed outside of the box far too many times (even though he knows how to use it... i've seen him and it's SO cute! =). so i really hope his tummy gets settled soon.Hope kitty feels better. The tummy/poo-ing & peeing outside the litter box problems might be stress-related. Once kitty gets comfortable with other kitty and surroundings, the issues might go away.

one thing you can do with the cats, is take a towel and rub it on one cat, and then rub it on the other cat, and then vice versa. it gets them more used to each others scent. if they aren't killing each other on sight, they will definitely get used to each other.
Do they have separate litter boxes? sometimes cats won't use the litter if it smells too much like another cat (even mine do that after a million years of living together)
