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.

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.

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.

litter box

Our 10.5 year old cat has decided to use other areas of the house for her litter box. I'm concerned it may be a medical problem - however - not sure what. Her behaviors have not changed (ie - showing signs of illness). I have even carried her downstairs to the litter boxes but she seems scarred and nervous. HELP!
