Will my new cats ever be accepting

I have 2 female cats, ages 1 and 2. I recently took in a baby boy stray around 4 months. The girls are not happy about this new addition. They hiss, and are upset about the new boy. I thought that female/ male relationships were friendly. I would like to know if anyone has had a similar situation? If so how did it work out?

My cat sucks (literally)

I don't know why, and when he started, but my cat Chevy always sucks my shirt. i mean always. Whenever he's around some kind of cloth he starts to suck on it. And when I take off my shirt and shorts to make him stop, then he just starts to lick my boxers. Can someone please help me with my problem?

Help, VERY SICK CAT

My 18 year old cat began having difficulty keeping things down about 3 weeks ago. I bought her wheatgrass and it helped her bring up some huge hair balls. She continued to bring up her food. I took her to the vet Friday before last. He took bloodwork and x-rays. Heart is enlarged which is normal for a cat her age. All other organs are functioning good. Has no temperature. Gave her medication for intestinal gas possibly due to infection. Kept a little milk down and some tuna salad. Took her back last Tuesday for vet to trace berium through her system and take xrays. No blockage. Esphogas muscles are relaxed which is normal for cat her age. Told me to encourage her to eat soft foods. Three weeks ago she was eating 2-3 cans of Fancy Feast a day. She won't eat the perscription food which I mixed with other food like he told me. Milk seemed to hard to digest so I got her catmilk yesterday. She drank a little over 6 ounces with a little more tuna salad and seemed to be keeping it down. She wanted something else, so I drained the water off a can of tuna which she usually likes. She took two laps and brought up everything. She doesn't seem to be digesting it. I'll call the vet tomorrow, but can anyone suggest anything to try? This is hard on her and me. She is strictly an indoor cat and a 2 person cat. It causes her such trauma to take her to the vet especially since she has never been sick before this. She had a sinus infection several months ago which caused her to sneeze 15-16 times in a row and she wouldn't eat then. After taking her to the vet and giving her the antibiotic, she became fine again. Please pray for her and me.

Adopted a cat that hates me

I have just adopted a cat that seems to hate me. He hides all the time and I can honestly say that he is miserable. He has only been here for four days, but he hasn't eaten and he hisses at me every time I time to touch him. I want him to be part of my family, but I don't want him to be miserable. I NEED SOME HELP REALLY BAD!!! Brooke

Bad Week for Cats

Has anyone heard about this? Check out this story about someone going around in Westminster, Colorado shooting cats with b.b. gun. An innocent kitty was shot in the legs and paralyzed. As if that wasn't bad enough, in rural Delaware, somebody has been setting cats on fire. What's especially horrifying about this story is the indifference by some of the townspeople. Some people who witnessed a cat burning, stood by and laughed as a kitten went up in flames. What on earth would drive a person to such animal cruelty? Whether it be boredom or self-hatred that drives these sickos, there have to be severe consequences. The life of a cat is no less worthy than that of a human. R.I.P. victimized kitties, we hope your attackers meet a similarly horrific fate.
