for context:

we moved into the house 5 weeks ago.

weeks 1-4: cats were terrified of each other. had to install a gate to keep them separate so my cat (baby) wouldn’t chase/bully charlie’s cats (george and carlos).

week 5: cats becoming braver and more established in their new home and respective bedrooms. removed the kitty gate after some peaceful encounters. there is still some fear and hissing but there have been peaceful moments with all 3 cats in the same room.

today: found baby snoozing on the same bed as carlos, george snoozing in a nearby chair. there was hissing earlier this morning though.

@tfae Oh, Manifold doesn't play uploaded gifs. Here's a video instead:

My understanding was that it was pretty rare for cats who were not raised together to achieve the level of intimacy of touching while sleeping. Maybe there should be a 'never' (or other long-dated time limit) option to make '3+ weeks' more meaningful?

@gwernbranwen exactly

@gwernbranwen good point!

Is baby male or female?

@GazDownright baby is female

Approximately where are you located? How cold will it get in the next three weeks?

@DingoBingo PNW, it’s cooling down as we speak
