It's not working out with Scary Mary's being accepted or her wanting to be accepted.
I put a temporary window screen in the basement door so Mary and the 10 house cats could get acquainted. Dexter was the first and it was not good. Mary stood her ground making threatening paw swipes.
I was on the telephone when Dexter who has a nasty temper when he can't get his way, went berserk. He stared hissing and yelling. Then he decided he wanted a piece of the basement tenant. Attacking the screen with his paws and throwing his body at the screen. Mary backed down the 3 stairs but strayed at the landing ready to do battle.
At that point I had to tell the party on the phone I would have to call back due to a cat emergency.
Another day another attempt at Harmony.
