Pet owners who have cats must have been in this situation, that is, when we already have a cat at home, and at this time we have a new one. The old cat will bully the new cat, which is a big headache for the shovel officer.
So is there any way to make the old cat accept the new cat quickly?When letting there be, first of all, isolation and slow contact is a good way to do it. Isolate new and old cats in different rooms or areas to familiarize each other with smells and sounds.
Then gradually let them touch, such as sniffing through the crack in the door, separating the partition, etc., gradually increasing the contact time and space. Secondly, rewards and encouragement are also an important method.
Give each other plenty of time and space to adapt, while actively encouraging and rewarding the old cat's behavior. This helps to strengthen the positive interactions between them and promote friendship and mutual understanding.
In addition, it is also a good idea to exchange used items. During quarantine, try swapping items they have used, such as toys, mats, etc., to get them familiar with each other's scents.
Also, after building trust, you can try to guide them to play together, such as using toys such as cat teasing sticks to bring the two cats closer together to promote interaction with each other. At the same time, it is very important to maintain a calm and positive atmosphere. When introducing new cats, maintain a calm, positive atmosphere and avoid forcing old cats to accept new cats. Reinforce positive interactions between them through rewards and encouragement.
I believe that through these methods, the old cat will be able to quickly accept the new friends!
