Info On Cats: New Kitten/ Integrating a New Cat Into The Family:

Guess what blog fans, I got a new grey tabby kitten two days ago. His full name is Earl Grey Tea, but we just call him Earl. He and Duke are starting to get along, but Earl still needs a few more lessons. Today's topic of discussion is: Info On Cats: Integrating a New Cat Into The Family. This may sound like a piece of cake to you, but this is actually a very hard task. Let's say you have a new kitten, but at home you already have a full grown cat. If the cat you already have is young, and not too old, it will be possible to bring a new cat home. But, if you have a very old cat who may not be willing to have a new cat in the house may not be able to accept a new cat. So it would be better if you didn't buy a new cat. If you do have a young cat at home this is what you should do:

1. Introduce both cats to each other carefully.
2. Let both cats go on their way around the house and let them go to each other.
3. If your older cat hisses or makes a deep meowing sound, do not get involved. The older cat is telling the new cat that he/she is the boss and should not be messed with.
4. When you have the chance, bring the cats to together face to face, don't be alarmed if your older cat strikes the new cat, and when this happens, do not intervene.
5. Over time the cats will get used to each other, this will not happen quickly.

Following the steps provided above will ensure that both cats will be comfortable in the house and they will get along well. If you have any questions or comments about cats or about any topic provided in this blog, I would be more than happy to answer them. ☺
