Well I have six cats and when I get a new male or female I just let them do what they please. I let them introduce themselves and if they are attacked I pick them up and make sure they are alright. Don't interfere because it may lead to disaster.

Are neighbourhood cats welcoming to new cats in their territory or a threat?
It depends on the cat you have. Is your cat friendly or agressive? If friendly they should do well. Are their two unfixed male cats? They might fight! If you have a male and a female you might get kittens. I suggest you always spay or nueter your cats. The neighborhood cats temerments count too.
What is better to have a boy cat or girl cat?
We started with a male cat and added a female cat. They get along famously. We then added two more males cats, and they all seem to get along very well. In fact, the two young males play all day long. The only downside to having multiple males, from what we've seen, is that the oldest male will sometimes play rough with the younger males in a show of domination. Answer Cats, like people, all have different personalities that have nothing to do with being male or female. I would suggest going to the humane society or your local cat rescue group. Most rescue groups "socialize" their cats meaning they introduce their rescues to other cats as soon as they can to get them used to having "friends". All new cats will have an adjustment period when introduced to your current pet.

How do you switch a cat from eating one brand of food to another?
You introduce the new brand a spoonful at a time with the old cat food for approximately a week tapering off of the old food a very little bit at a time. This goes for both tinned or dry cat foods. This lets the cat's intestinal tract adjust to the new food.
If your cat went totally crazy hissing screaming and growling at you and trying to jump on you to attack and attacking its brother what could have made him do that?
* Was he around any catnip? that makes them hyper, he might have just been playing roughly. * Providing the cat was not in pain, or scared by something obvious, as far as I think, maybe he saw something you could not see, and it scared him. No proof, but I do think sometimes that animals may see, or sense some things that we cannot. * I agree with the above poster, but if this sort of action keeps up then you should take your cat to the vets to be sure nothing is wrong. Our pets aren't so far removed from us humans and can many maladies such as humans and (not scaring you here) but can have tumors of the brain or anywhere in the body, or possibly some pain in a part of the body. * Possibility of territorial issues. My cat once circled my aunt several times, meowed at her and then jumped on my unsuspecting aunts head after she sat at his space at the heater and didn't move and as he was younger he was a bit wild and settled after age set in so age could be a factor too. * I'm wondering if it has to do with the scent. When I brought back a cage with new kitten in it, even if I put away the new kitten in its separate place, I didn't realize I had big dog hair everywhere statically adhered to the cage bottom from the place I picked up the kitten. My female and male cats have been together since birth and always played with each other (spayed and neutered early on when they were in animal shelter). Well, my female cat is sneaky curious kind, male cat is totally playful alpha male, very friendly to strangers even! But when my female cat got in contact with bunch of dog hair, my male cat started hissing and attacking the female cat. I at first thought their hissings were due to the new kitten who were put away in separate room. But even without the kitten around at all, with cage put away, they started just attacking each other! (my female cat is very curious about the kitten, by the way. and my male cat's very scared of whatever that "thing" is behind the door). Well, I'm at my wit's end. Now I separated all three of them. I'm not even sure how I'm going to introduce which cat to which one first. But anyway, I suggest your brother cat might have picked up some scent that prevents the first one from recognizing him at all. * It's very important that you take your male cat to the vets as male cats can pick up parasites more readily than females. There could be some physical reason your cat is acting this way, so go to the vets first and if this is a territorial problem then your vet can help you remedy this. * Give him more cat nip eventually he will just pass out because he is just doesn't have any energy, or take him to a animal shelter, or just go all "old yeller"

Can you buy another guinea pig then add a new one at age 1?
There is usually no problem with adding a new guinea pig even if you already have one. The best combination is to have a female, then introduce a new female. It isn't a good idea to introduce a new guinea pig if you have a male, unless you bring in a female because you want them to breed. If you must add a new male, try wshing it first to remove all old traces of its previous companions, as male guinea pigs are a lot more territorial than females.

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.
Can you put a older male cat and a younger male cat together?
Male cats do not attack kittens or female cats however, it probably isn't the best idea. If you have lived with the older cat for a while, he may become jealous of the new addition to the family. As the younger cat devolops they may become aggressive to one another. This said, not all cats are like this, some generally get along with other cats. It depends mostly on the breed and age.
