Never-seen-before behaviour captured at ex-trial adopters' home! It's sensational ! ;-p
This is a hidden side of Snowy that we've never encountered at home or known to exist. She'd actually snarled and hissed at a kitten younger than herself!
*Hgguurrhhh !!!*Don't you mess with me! I'm the 大姐大 (big sister) in this house, you hear?

Exhibit A - Sweet Snowy caught red-handed!
The kitten is black. So the adopters wanted a white cat to form the 'YingYang' symbol?
Such snarling is common in the early phase of a newbie introduction and one can see that the black kitten is inviting her to play. I am sure with time, they will be playmates. Just need time.
Unfortunately, the adoptors made too hasty a decision.
Agree with vegancatsg, we can see from the pic, blackie inviting play but as we all know, cats have this thing about their private space and will not allow strangers/strange cats to invade.
It's common behaviour. Imagine being taken away suddenly and placed in some 'foreign land'; they are just protecting themselves lah. The black kitten sure looks friendly. Just curious - are they locked to the kitchen?
Show them what you have got Snowy!!!
Sigh. Not the kitties' fault. They just need more patience and support from the "parents".
I totally understand how Snowy felt, and your mixed feelings about the failed trial.
I guess you have to accept Snowy and Coco being a permanent fixture now. Kekeke.
Dear all, thanks for your comments.
Mary: Don't think the cats were locked up - they'd mentioned Snowy kept staying in the kitchen initially.
Who knows, it may be a good thing that Snowy wasn't adopted by them. Like what Catdonna say, any good adopters worth their salt must be willing to commit to & fulfil the agreed trial period (at least) and not be too hasty to expect instant results.
scary snarl! she'll adapt with time though :)
