• To further ease the transition, you may switch a toy, or sleeping blanket, between the existing and the new pet(s). This allows them to get to know each other in a calm and safe separate environment.

• Once the new Kitten is feeling comfortable in the small room and is eating and using the litter box, confine your existing pets to a different room and then open the door to your Kitten's room and let him/her come out to explore more of your home. Do not force them to explore; let them, in their own time, decide to see the world. Usually, it happens very quickly.

• Next, place the carrier in a main room, such as a Living Room, and place your Kitten back in their carrier with the door shut. Allow the existing pets back out into the house. Quickly they will find the carrier and introduce themselves to the new comer. There may be hissing and spitting initially, but they will soon feel comfortable and begin to relax.

• Finally, you may open the carrier door and allow the new Kitten to meet the other pet(s) face to face. Most often pets will get along very quickly, however, there is a slim chance that some pet personalities may take more time to adjust to each other. Watch them carefully during this get acquainted period and be prepared to go back to an earlier step, if your existing pet(s) shows any aggression to your new Kitten.
