Dear Customer (name blocked for privacy), Thanks for trusting me with this problem. I need a little information from you if you don't mind so I can answer your question.

What do your cats do exactly?

What have you tried so far?

Have they ever had vet exams?

Are they indoor cats?

Waiting for your reply,Don



Thankyou & God Bless!

Reply to Don Collver's Post: *they run away and hide - usually under the beds
*i've tried to talk to them quietly, pet them, buy various toys, i've tried to play with them using bubbles (which they were afraid of)balls, string, etc.
*they have been to the vet for their shots, blood work and exams - but it takes me hours to get them in the cage.
*they are indoor cats also they are sisters from the same litter - when i went to buy a cat i fell in love with them and did not want to seperate them so i bought both


i will appreciate any help you can give me
thanks, lorraine

Hello Lorraine, it sounds like you're doing what they need and you may be more successful after they have been spayed/neutered .

We purchased two cats at the same time and found they didn't need humans either because they have each other.

That changed after we got ours spayed. Now after 1 yr they are both loving and not as ready to tear around with each other though they still play games from time to time.

Also,it's a good idea to leave the pet carrier open in the home for a while.Put their favorite toy,a treat,a towel to curl up on.You may find they are a little easier to get into the pet carrier next time.

if you've not considered getting your cats spayed or neutered here's some information on why and when for you.This particular website does a good job on helping the pet owner help the pet!

If you have any more questions please let me know ,I will happy to help you!

THANKYOU FOR YOUR QUESTION.

Have a nice evening.



Thankyou & God Bless!
