they might at first, but you got to show them love and care for them, they'll get used to you, and everything will be fine. Try this:

What do you do when you have a new kitten brought into the house and the other cats get jealous?

the answer is a bit complicated. these two things simultaneously: 1. SEPARATE your older cats need a proof that they still matter. The new kitten should sleep and eat apart of them. The places where they are 'the boss' should for start stay reserved just for the older cats. 2. Bring together pet them together. take both cats into your lap and pet them. if your older cat gets agressive, turn from it (not for weeks, for a minute or so) and just pet the other cat. Also pet your older cats on these 'premier' places where they like to sleep, and show them that your affection is not becoming smaller. The new kitten will be fine with a little less attention, don't you care about that. What matters now is to form a healthy cat household.


Why is your male 2 year old cat trying to bite your new kittens neck?

Male cats may bite the neck of a new kitten as a way to establish dominance or to communicate boundaries. This behavior could also be a form of play, but it's important to closely monitor their interactions to ensure that the kitten is not being harmed. It may be helpful to gradually introduce them to each other and provide plenty of spaces for the kitten to retreat to if needed.


If adding a second cat should the new cat be a kitten?

Not necessarily. The age and personality of the existing cat should be taken into consideration when adding a new cat. Some adult cats may do better with another adult cat while others may accept a kitten more easily. It's important to properly introduce the cats and provide adequate space for them to adjust to each other.


Did you get ring worm from your new kitten?

It is possible that you got ring worm from your new kitten but you should look for a rash on the kitten and take it to the vet to make sure that the kitten isn't infected. Children can get ring worm from the soil outside and touching anyone or anything that's infected.


Do cats lose their k-9s?

Kittens lose their deciduous teeth (baby/kitten teeth) at around 5 to 6 months of age, and the adult canine teeth grow in. Adult cats may lose these teeth due to injury or disease, and new teeth do not grow back.

Would your current cat kill a new kitten?

No


Would a clan of three adult cats kill a kitten new to your home?

It is very unlikely. Most adult cats don't kill kittens. Adult cats are territorial and want their space. Otherwise, they usually avoid the kitten. Normally adult cats will hiss and growl at the kitten. Then pop the kitten with its paw. Then go away. Some adult cats will adopt the kitten. I have an adult female cat that adopts kittens as her own. She lets the kitten nurse, she cleans it and plays with it.

Should i add a female kitten to a home with a three year old male and female cat?

No. You shouldn't. The cats and the dog will probably wanting to mate, but if you include a kitten(which i have tried before) they will start fighting. The older male might attack the young kitten. I would advise you not to, this has happened to myself before.... You should neuter/spay them all before combining them. Also, one cat will get jealous that the other cat may get along with the new one... Or both cats will hiss at the new cat. If they're all spayed/neutered, you can try your best and do new-home-introduction technique by confining ur new one in small space for couple weeks to couple months till your older cats get used to the new kitten smell from the other side of the door. Eventually they'll get curious of whatever that you aren't showing them from the otherside of door (do not let them see the new cat), and will show less sign of hissing. Hissing will be inevitable if you bring in a new cat, regardless of gender or age. But at least they'll get along better if you introduce them slowly by scent rather than physical confrontation. If you haven't neuter/spay them, I don't advise introducing new female kitten.


What do cats and kittens hate?

The don't have to hate at all! It very much depends on the cat and kitten. My older cat treated my new kitten as her own.


Would anything happen i am thinking of buying a new cat and i have a medium sized garden. So do our neighbors and they have 2 cats they come to our garden sometimes would territory war start?

It depends what personalities the cats have. I have a kitten and when he first got let outside the neighbors cats who came into the garden before did not seem bothered about him. They have not yet had a fight (only hissing at each other). The other cats still come into the garden like they used to and it is all still normal. But still I would be careful.

Is it abnormal for a kitten to breathe heavily through their nostrils?

Not really. Many cats snore. If the kitten is awake and doing it or if it's something new I'd go on the safe side and make a vet visit.

HOW do you get your NEW kitten to follow you everywhere out of love?

First you sit it down on the couch, then give it a lick (because licking is their way of showing love so at least they will understand you). Play with your kitten often, and with toys, not with your hands. Never punish the kitten if it misbehaves - cats respond very well to positive reinforcement. Spend as much time with your kitten as you can.
