    Bumble is very cute. Others are right your older cats will not play with him. Brothers need to be together. I have four cats. Oldest one is 16 Years old and has never played with the two - 11 year olds nor the 5 year old.

    In my experience cats don't do threes all that well, especially if they are of different sexes. Remember, they are not pack animals like dogs are; they are independent thinkers and territorial.

    Your new baby needs his brother and so do the others. I'm willing to bet you will find things are actually better with two little ones than with the one.

    Pooh, 'older' cats will be as charmed by the new babies as we 'older' moms are too!

    He is cute, but he looks forlorn. A little lost. But he will get better.

    Bumble looks so lost. He's missing his brother maybe grieving. After all they survived being locked up together. His brother would provide a playmate. I have 4 cats and the older ones don't want to play.

    I think that if you brought brother home, Bumble and his brother would buddy up and allow the older two to be together while these two play together. It would probably make everything much easier. Besides, you know your heart is breaking for brother - go get him!!
