Introducing a New Cat Into Your Home

I love to sit in a chair and watch my cats. Cats are very relaxing to watch. I love to watch them clean themselves with their paw. It is relaxing to watch a sleeping cat. A cat can help you settle down after a stressful day.

It has been proven that owning a pet helps lower your blood pressure. People that own pets tend to live longer. Cats are an excellent company. Cats are good listeners and never talk back to you.

Cats are good mousers. Cats can catch and kill rabbits that eat away in your garden. Some of my cats have even killed a rat outdoors. Some cats and dogs become the best of friends.

If you are sad and lonely, having a cat in the house will help you have a brighter and happier day. Listening to a cat purr is very relaxing.

Kittens are so much fun to watch. It is fun to watch them play with their mother’s tails. Watching them pounce on leaves that fly around in the wind is fun. A kitten’s curiosity is boundless. Kittens will give you many hours of enjoyment.

Watching your cat throw toy mice up in the air and catch them is a joy. I like to watch my cats chase after balls. My cats love to cuddle with their catnip toys from LoopiesToys.Com. My cat Conrad plays a circle game with a light-up ball in the middle. I like to watch him having fun with that cat toy.

Cats are genuinely excellent companions. A cat can give you many years of happiness, joy, and love. A cat is there for you when you wake up in the morning. When I come home from a long day, my cats meet me at the door. Having a cat is awesome.

Introducing a New Cat Into Your Home

I put the new cat in quarantine for a week or more. I watch and observe the cat for sickness. I take the cat to my vet for distemper, rabies, and feline leukemia shots and deworming. The new cat is placed in my bathroom or a large cage with water, food, and cat litter. The other cats can sniff at the newcomer through the door. They will slowly get used to each other’s scent and meow by smelling or hearing each other through the gate. I let the new cat out only when I am home; so I can break up any disagreements.

I give all of my cats treats at this time. Each cat gets the same amount of treats. Cats know if they are being treated equally very quickly.

When I am satisfied that everyone is getting along fine, I free the newcomer. I have not experienced any problems using this method.

Spend much time with your new cat away from your other cats. Pat your new cat on the head and talk gently to him, as this will reassure him that he will not be harmed. Have toys available for him to play with, as this will also calm him.

Please bring all of your cats into a room, patting them all equally on the head for an equal amount of time. Play radio with soft music or have a clock ticking softly in the background—cats like gentle, calming sounds.

Have a nice warm cat bed available for the new cat. The new mattress can be a hideaway spot for him to get away from your other cats if he gets nervous now and then.

Have a variety of toys available for everyone to interact together with. They can take turns batting a mouse around in a circle cat toy.

All of your cats should be content with each other’s company now.
