My personality

Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Styx is a great cat, extremely friendly, sociable and loving. He cuddles with us daily, comes to the door when there are visitors, and loves laying in front of the fireplace or in a big patch of sun.

I have had him for 3 years now after my ex left him when she moved out. After she left, Styx became more anxious, more needy, and would get visibly concerned if a suitcase was taken out. There is another cat in the house, and while he was ok before she left, he has become more stressed with the other cat, particularly around litter box usage and general fighting.

I have tried multiple things to assist with behavior (three litter boxes, different pheromones, creating his own space, etc) but we live in a small apartment and it does not seem to have helped their relationship or Styx's anxiety. If we had more space we'd separate him from the other cat more, but that's not feasible and I know he would be much happier in his own, new space where he isn't waiting for his owner to come back.
