Lash the bitches with electrical flex until they start acting friendly to the new kittens.

I’ve often thought about becoming an animal psychologist I just seem to have a gift for communicating with animals.

Ask you and you shall be [besieged](http://s119.photobucket.com/albums/o155/portia327/New%20Kittehs/). They just adore each other and I’m so glad we kept the brothers together.

The product I’ve seen work before is called [At Ease](http://www.petvetsupply.com/pmsmgar029.html) and is a pump spray. Now I have to find where to buy it…

I’ve always subscribed to the “full immersion” school of animal integration.

Dump all of em into an oversized pillowcase and tie the end off. Just leave it in the middle of the floor until everything settles down.

I don’t think we have a pillowcase that big. We’d have to use maybe a flat sheet tied up with twine.

Hmmmm…

I got some At Ease on lunch, here’s hoping it helps.
