Steps to introduce your new kitten to an older pet

Here are a few steps you can follow to introduce your new kitten to an older pet.

• Make introductions slowly and confine your new kitten to its own room for a couple weeks
• Begin introducing your kitten by first open the door to her room a crack and letting the other cats know she is there and vice versa
  
• After a couple days put your new kitten in her carrier and let the other pets in the house in the room. Except some hissing at first but don't be discouraged.
• You can also rub a blanket or toy against your new kitten and give it to the other cats so they can get used to her scent. Also do the same to the older cats and give the item to the kitten.
• With in a week or two everyone should be getting along just remember to be patient
• Most dogs and cats also get along, but this may take a little longer. There may be scuffles, hissing and barking, but there is every chance that before long they will be playing together. Again, it's smart not to leave them together unattended until you see the situation clearly.
• But whether your other pet is a dog or a cat, remember to show him extra love and affection so that he won't be jealous of the newcomer. And don't force your older animal to accept your cat immediately. Let him do it at his own pace.
