My family adopted an adult cat, one year old, "Henry", to be friends with our lonely other one year old cat, "William". Both the cats are males. We've had Henry for three weeks, and he remains deathly afraid of everything. He braely eats, and hides under the bed. William visits him, and tries to play but Henry will not play, and runs away. We all have to keep incredibly quiet around the house, because loud noises scare the bejezus out of him. I want to make Henry feel more at home. What can I do? (link)
well first you should handle your new pet twice a day and reward him afterwards second intro duce him to the other cat by crating the new cat and letting him see the old cat through the door that way they get used to each other but henry wont feel so scared because there is a bairyer between him and the other cat third every time henry decides to come to you for no reason or play with the other cat reward him


She is 4 and she almost always wants to pretend to be a cartoon character, and wants me to be one too. Sometimes, I just am not in the mood to be a cartoon character and talk in a silly voice. I already told her I won't do it in public, and she understands, but she still bugs me to be characters at home. How do I get her to stop this, or at least not expect me to play along with it every time? It's getting old. Does anyone else have kids that do this? (link)
well you should have her do something else with her time like read to her or teach her something new


me and this guy.... we will call him... pete. well me and pete have been talking for about 8 months (november-june) and we went out in dec. for about a month but broke up because he "couldn't have a girlfriend". despite that, we still liked each other and continued to see each other without the title of boyfriend and girlfriend.... now it seems like every few days hes mad at me for some random reason and a day later were fine and acting like it never happened but this time i don't even know what that reason is... i asked him the other day what was wrong and he said he would tell me later. well i decided to let him approach me about it first since i had already asked but then today he acted like it never happened except im scared to ask and bring up more fighting.... what should i do?!! (link)
well it could be something realated to familiy or other friends but since you know he pretend it never happened the nexted day you need to approche him and if he says he'll tell you later you should approche him later that same day
