Hi There,

I don't think this kitten is misbehaving, it sounds more like she is frightened, much like a feral kitten. I realize that she was raised in someone's home, but when she was very young she probably wasn't handled enough. This combined with the fact that she is without her littermates and mother at a very young age has made it difficult for her to adjust.

If you are not willing to take the time, or have the patience, giving up the kitten might be best. Even feral cats can come around, but it takes sometimes years of patience and this kitten may never be the kind of cat that you want to have. She gets along with the other cat simply because she is more comfortable with another cat than with humans. Some cats are people-oriented, others are cat-oriented. My feral cat that I have had for 12 years now rarely gets into my lap, does not always let me pet her, but just loves the other cats in the family.

Hope this has been helpful.....

Regards,
PHKitkat
