Well, I couldn't take it any more. I adopted another cat on Friday

2. Tofu is a sweetie - if I'd met him first, I might not have adopted the others.

None of the rest of the kitties are as affectionate as he is.

I'm most worried about introducing Lucas and Tofu. Lucas is the largest adult cat and tends to bully the other cats. I doubt Tofu will every get very large. he weighs about four pounds now and from what I am reading at five months, cats tend to be about half their adult weight.

Lucas is twelve pounds, Sabra a very overweight twelve, and Maya as the oldest is only seven. Lucas is dominant, Sabra the most submissive, and Maya the most independent - and the one Lucas picks on the most.

I'm tempted to lock Lucas up for a few days while Maya and Sabra reach an accommodation with Tofu, and Tofu learns his way around the house. Then I could let Lucas out. That way Tofu could find hiding places to get away from the larger cat. I've got Feliway dispensers in several of the rooms, so the cats are all as mellow as they are going to be.
