Hi Tammy - thank-you so much for all that advice! I've actually been doing as much online reading as I can (even though it's pretty far away) and I've seen your suggestions mentioned before.
I'd love to be able to give each of them their own room ... however, we only have 2 bedrooms. I was thinking that our bedroom would definitely make one or the other jealous...and could only think of the washrooms as an alternative (we have 2).
Everything will be done when we move in ... we'll have everything painted, all the furniture in and all the building will be done (and no ceiling fans! hehehe)
I've read that females are extremely territorial and as they are both female we considered bringing them both in at the same time, letting them meet in their carriers for a few hours (face to face in separate carriers of course) and then opening the doors and letting them establish their own "zones" on their own ... that way we aren't creating territories by putting them in their own rooms.
I've read that we can start "introducing" the two now by carrying scents to the other cat ... rubbing towels and then bringing them to the other cat at the other house. But, in reality, they've been getting used to one another for the past 1 1/2 years because my clothes must be covered in Spooky's scent when I visit Jynx and Jynx sleeps under the covers with me at night and I go home to Spooky ... will this make their meeting any easier?
