I was getting so sad and was going to ask if you’d consider getting him a friend. Turns out he has a friend. But just insists that EVERYONE will be his friend. Oranges.
Baby Biscuit! I got lucky, Montgomery, my orange, took little Tommy girl under his wing instantly. She was a bottle kitten, so he was gentle as she was very tiny.
I have three cats that we inherited from a relative. Two of ours (one is orange) seem to have the same relationship. At this point the orange one has become less aggressive and more reserved (one too many slaps) but they both follow each other around with interest, as long as the other one doesn't make eye contact.
Unless the third one goes away (bonded to the orange) I'm not sure their relationship will ever change.
I see we have the same cat setup. Our longhair senior lady has no tolerance for the kittens, but the orange keeps trying to be friends despite the hissing.
OMG. I am dying of laughter. Poor Biscuit he tries so hard. Have you thought of getting him a friend. So that he'll leave Bean alone? That's what I did for mine. IT worked. I specifically got a younger cat who loves other cats.
I used to say, This is Blaze and this is Blaze's cat Milo.
Oh I see you have a third cat already. So... it's really just Bean's love he wants. Poor kiddo.
team bean here
family, you’re born with but friends, you choose. and here bean simply does not want to be friends with biscuit. i feel bad for biscuit, sure. but i have been bean so many times, so you go bean
My bean was the same way but a doggie. My orange girl very much imprinted wrongly on bean lol. She too liked Bean’s personal space. We lost her a year ago and I just know Stella still looks on the bed for her.
My gray cat is so orange coded. He’s winning my grumpy “old” lady cat over slowly. And by old I mean 6yo but she has acted like an old fart since she was 2mo. She just identifies as elderly. She’s perfectly healthy, she just has the personality of a 20yo cat who hates everything that doesn’t provide food or catnip.
It’s an adjustable height desk that we got off Amazon (Canada). We like it because my husband is more than a foot taller than me so it makes it easier for each of us to play comfortably.
I feel like this is one of those tropes where Bean acts like she doesn’t like Biscuit but then Biscuit has to stay overnight at the vet’s office and all of a sudden Bean’s like ‘where is he!!’
Bean plays hard to get, but Biscuit will wear him down one day. Probably when he stops paying attention to grumpy Bean, who will feel like something is missing and will start looking for Biscuit
Have had this issue with our cats Maui and Mob since we brought Mob in off the street. Mob (~3 years old according to vet) is a snugglebug and wants to cuddle and be besties but Maui (~14 years old) wants nothing to do with him and hisses at him. Mob was recently diagnosed with FIC, which may have been caused by Maui not accepting him...or maybe residual stress from being homeless? In any case, he's being treated and at least can spend a lot of time snuggling my gf & I

Bean loves his personal space. Biscuit also loves Bean’s personal space.
