Acquaintance of animals is important to conduct correctly. In this article, you will learn how to comfortably introduce cats.
How to introduce cats
A study published in Applied Animal Behavior Science illuminates an important path for smooth dating.
Scientists have found that a gradual approach significantly reduces aggression among feline friends, as opposed to abruptly grouping them together.
While aggression often comes in the form of biting and scratching, other signs such as hissing, slapping and chasing signal discomfort and anxiety in cats.
Start introducing cats with short encounters, and then gradually increase the duration over the course of several days.
Remember that each cat should have its own bed, food bowl and water bowl. They will not share. It is recommended to provide each cat with at least one litter box.
Acquaintance is best made when feeding animals, then hunger will overpower all other irritants. Cats "recognize" each other; will be able to be nearby for lunch or dinner. You need to prepare for the fact that cats will hiss and grumble. Hissing is a normal animal reaction.
