How Do I Introduce An Older Cat To Younger Cats?
I have two cats that are 7 years old and have been with us since they were about 2 months old. Just recently, yesterday, we acquired another cat who is 10 years old. How do I introduce the older cat to the others without any negative effects?
Answers
Introduce them slowly with supervision. Sometimes depending on the personality of one of the cats may feel threatened. If you're unsure and they are outdoor cats let them all outside so if they decide to be territorial they can have it out in the yard. Also there are animal cages that are pretty large that you can put the new cat in. Basically with this the cats can see each other and still be able to smell them and get used to their presence. For the most part if your cats are mild mannered these things should not be an issue. They will most likely avoid each other and get along in no time flat.
