Its been 1 year and a few months since Tron has came to live in my house. When Tron was introduced to Cheeba, she had been here for over 5 years and she was use to being the only cat that came indoors. Since then, it has been a long and frusterating struggle trying to get both cats to live together peacefully. Today, I finally feel as if they may be getting along or at least tolerating each other.
