Appearance of a new kitten can cause discontent the pets living in yours the house. Cats do not suffer the competition and can offend the kid. Depends only on your correct behavior of distribution of attention whether they will become friends or not.
Instruction
1. Adult cats reconcile to appearance of a kitten, than adult animal easier. In a cat, she is sterilized or not, the maternal instinct can wake up, and she with pleasure will look after the kid. The castrated cats are phlegmatic therefore they in the house of a kitten can treat emergence calmly, but without delight and express discontent if the kid requires to himself attention. If you take a male kitten, and in the house there is not castrated cat, it can not accept the kid at once. Such cats do not suffer the competition. Therefore there can be constant fights and other unpleasant manifestations of a protest (pools in not put places and so on).
2. If you brought already adult animal to the house, prepare that for a while it will become the battlefield. There are breeds which loyally concern other animals (British, Persian). But in the majority the cats individually prefer to hold attention of the owner and the territory.
3. Cats determine personal and others' by a smell. And here you should resort to cunning. For several days enclose a towel on which she will sleep under the cat. And then wrap up in this towel of a kitten. The cat will surely sniff at the new pet and learns a familiar smell.
4. Feeding – one more way to acquaint cats. Put bowls at small distance nearby. You feed animals always together. Gradually shift bowls closer and closer that they appeared together. There will be nothing left to cats how to eat a forage side by side, and then to lick itself. At this moment there can be also mutual "sink". And it is already one of steps to reconciliation.
5. Always stop fights. If you see that the adult cat offends the kid, explain to her that it cannot be done. She already for certain knows your forbidding intonation of a voice. And here it is impossible to beat at all. It is so possible to incite it against a kitten only even stronger. But also to him in turn do not allow to exasperate potential dad or mom. Distract him, and play with him better.
6. Do not find for one animal more time and caress, than to another. If stroked one cat, at once stroke also another. Cat's are very jealous - they seek to be for the owner the only love.
