Should you separate cats that have lived together for a long time?

I have had paired cats many times. Some were mates and others were brothers or sister pairs. In every instance whenever something happened to one, the other felt lost. They acted out and would search for the other one. It would be a hard choice to break them up and i would only do it if it meant saving one or both cats lives.

∙ 15y agoIf the dogs got along very well, then yes. Dogs are very pack oriented, meaning they treat there packs like we do family. So ask yourself how you would like to be torn away from your sibling or best friend by someone else.

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.
Is it possible for 2 adult male cats who never lived together get along?
Yes cats can live with other cats but some cats are stubborn and don't like sharing their space. If your cat is a nice one it will probably welcome the new cat just as you do. It's all about personality. Animals have personalities just as people do. Some are more aggressive and territorial, whereas others are affectionate and quite happy to share their people.

I have two adult cats 10 years old that have been raised together since kittenhood. Is it a bad idea to move one of the cats and separate them?
Well, that is kind of your opinion, but to me, i would never separate my cats because they have been raised since kittenhood. but were aren't separating them anyway. But in my opinion, I don't think you should. Since the cats have been mostly together ever since, they will miss each other very much. and Since they have known each other for a long time i would probably think they have "friendship". And remember the stories about when the friend has to move? It is really sad. so in my opinion i don't think you should.
Do cats make good fathers?
No. Male cats are not involved at all with the bringing up of their offspring; only the mother cat will do this. Male and female cats will only come together to mate, and after will go their separate ways. In the wild, male cats can kill kittens in order to bring the female into heat again.
I had two cats for thirteen years and one passes should I get new toys and a new litter box and what can I do?
If the cats lived together you should probably get a new cat. I believe that cats need one of their kind to hang around and 'cat chat' with. Well if the cat that passed was ill, I think you should buy new toys, litter box, food dish ,ect... because it is possible for your living cat to get the same illness from those items. So sorry to hear your cat passed.
