Yeah, that sounds like a recipe for disaster! Territory protection + potentially defensive new pair. I am very hopeful that these guys will find a new home soon!

Oh, Gerald has rejiggered the whole household. A few months after he moved in we actually hired a cat behavior specialist to help us manage him because there was so much chaos. We wanted to keep him but we didn’t want our two resident cats to be miserable. He can be pretty inconsiderate.
