Igg..my cats aren't adjusting well to Brick being here either!! I get Tim to take him outside so I can spend some quality time with them, and they still sleep with us, without Brick. Its hard, it breaks my heart, but I try to spend as much time with them as I can!!! Give it time, they will all adjust!! It does get easier...trust me!! We're still in that fairly "new" stage, but I notice now that Brick is starting to test his limits...he isn't so timid anymore (garbage-eater!!) I almost feel sorry for Brick cuz he wants to play with the cats and they want NOTHING to do with him!! Poor guy!! But I think I finally found a playmate for him that doesn't hate him...my parents little shi-tzu-pug.....loves Brick!! It was soooooo cute!!!
Anyways, good luck and hang in there!!! Buddy is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!! He looks happy to be home finally!!!
P.S. When Brick is around the cats, I use "be gentle" and he tones down his sniffing and nibbling. It seems to really work!! Not sure if he understands "be gentle" but it works, so we'll go with it!!! It's all a learning process!!!
