We have done many of intros but for some reason this last one is just not working. Elizabeth the girl we rescued from the SPCA is getting picked on really bad by Mya. Our bullies are Emily, Mya, Janeway, Willow, Mini and Sun and Charlotte do their share.
We did couch intros as we do not have a bathtub booo lol And after a week everyone is fine with Elizabeth on the couch except for Mya. So we tried the bathroom and she's fine with her in there and she's fine with her when they are both on my shoulder in the kitchen.
However..
As soon as I go into the living room or into their play area all the bullies that were fine with her on the couch are not fine with her in their area. Elizabeth makes matters worse because she runs away from them and then the chasing and nipping and so on ensues.
How can I get them to accept her in their place? We did the same for all the other intros and everyone got accepted after they worked out their differences but for some reason Elizabeth just isn't fitting in with some of them. So I have to block off one part of the FN so she can be in there with the nice girls.
Any suggestions as to what we can do? We've tried the dominant pinch thing and that worked with Emily but not with Mya.
Mya isn't even the alpha lol Emily is though Mya thinks she is the bugger lol
