Thread: waiting on my new arrival :)

I am one of the old school,let them meet up & get on with it,under supervision of course..... The first three of mine slept together right from the start but the following ones have slept seperate to begin with & it has depended on how introductions have gone as to when they were put together,the longest I have ever kept them seperate was with my last girl Ruby although she had a cage in the room with the others,it wasn't that she didn't get on with the rest but I was more worried being so small the big boys would pinch her food,no fear of that though,she is now sleeping in the "big" beds & her food doesn't touch the sides so I think its more likely the boys have to watch their dishes....
Why I introduce straight away is because they both know on either side there is another animal in the house so what is the point of keeping them apart,we take ours into the sitting room in the carrier & after a while open it up & let things go from there,put a blanket in the carrier from the existing cat so new babe will already have some known smell on it when it arrives & have plenty of fun toys at hand,your other cat is still really only a babe & will most probaly give you extra kisses for providing her with a playmate,once she has let it known that she is boss around the household that is.....Have fun & enjoy them both,will look forward to seeing photos of both of them...x
