To rehome or not to rehome?...*cat advice!!*

Question

Hubby and I have 5 cats and our middle girl, Marley, who is also a bengal, we discovered does not get along with new cats. She HaTeS are two newest cats and now everyone pees everywhere in the house. 
9 wks pregnant and unwilling to accept this as my new life for x- amount of years, I’m leaning toward the dreaded inevitable unless someone can tell me there is hope otherwise? 
We’ve tried everything. Reintroduction, a million litter boxes, more feeding stations, meds, pheromones, separation, etc. and nothing seems to long term help. I’m open though. I don’t want to lose these two youngens as I love them so much but I can’t live in a giant litter box and ruin cats for our future kids. 
Please help!!!!

Answer

I personally would rehome the new cats. Since Marley was there first its really not fair that you give her away. As far as cat boxes go there only a problem for pregnant women if your cats go outdoors.

Answer

I'd say get rid of the one causing trouble. You dont need that many litter boxes around while you are pregnant. It's really bad for you and the baby.

Answer

Are they all fixed? Sounds like a marking territory thing￼. But since they’ve been doing it, more than likely they will continue. 
I’m against rehoming. I’ve had similar situations as I have a lot of cats as well. None of my cats got along at first. They got use to each other after a few months and everything would be normal. 
However you have to do what you think is best. Make sure you regime them to responsible people or if you take them to a shelter, take them to a no kill shelter. Every animal deserves a chance.

Answer

I would rehome the two newest in all honesty! Good luck.. that's so hard!!! 😭 
We are just barely going to get another kitten (2nd we've ever had) after having to rehome our first kitten almost 5 years ago.. it was so difficult to make the decision (similar to yours but she was peeing on and ruining baby items) it was so hard but I couldn't do it. Again good luck! 😭

Answer

I think rehoming would be the best thing for everybody. The two new kitties will adjust quickly to there new homes and you can then focus on fixing your home and taken it easy! 
Good luck mama and congratulations

Answer

My husband and i have 4 cats. When we combined households our cats came with us. I didn't have too much trouble with the cats til my son was born. They pee in my sons favorite spots to play and puke on his toys. Im currently 30 weeks pregnant and most of my melt downs have been over those cats. I've banished them all downstairs and taken them to vets. They are just jealous of our son. I feel bad for saying this but im beginning to resent them. 
Whatever choice you make it'll be hard. I really feel for you. You have aot on your ate and i hope you can find a solution that gives you peace of mind.
