Six cats is already a pretty serious undertaking. How long have you had the youngest cat? It sounds like the other cats aren\\\’t even used to Jasmine yet! Throwing yet another young, rambunctious kitten into the mix may cause more stress in the house. Plus, there\\\’s no guarantee that Jasmine would get along with a new kitten. I would give your other cats more time to accept Jasmine before you make any additional drastic changes in the house.

Did you do any scent swapping? How did you introduce them?

I don\\\’t think they hate her, but they could be jealous that she has gotten special treatment from you. With proper introduction, I would stop giving her special treatment and put her with the rest of the cats. Some of them are bound to discipline her sometime, but as long as there is not a serious fight, let things go naturally. But you may need to keep a separate litter box for her, If she has not been spayed, I would expect some trouble. If it seems that she is not eating when the others are, it seems to be natural for some young females to wait for the other cats to eat first. And that is no problem.
