Cat Problems and Answers

my cat is 18 months and am getting a kitten in June (1 week old now). just wondered if anyone had major problems getting their cats to get on and what did they do to sort it and did anyone have to give up?
When our female cat was 6 months old we brought home a stray kitten that we found starving on the streets. She hated him and tried to attack him every chance she got. It took almost one month of careful and controlled introductions before she would even tolerate his presence in the same room as her, but then things calmed down and she accepted him. They’re not best friends, but they do get on okay together. These links have information and advice on introducing cats which you may find helpful. http://www.messybeast.com/first-impressions.htm http://www.littlebigcat.com/index.php?action=library&act=show&item=cattocatintroductions Some cats are just more territorial than others. Our female cat chases off any other cat that tries to come onto our patio area. Whereas our male cat is much more sociable and he’s fine with other cats. If your cat is fairly laid back, you might not have any problems whatsoever with introducing them to a kitten. Hope everything works out. Good luck.
