Katti, welcome to pet talk, there are many great people here.
Of my 11 furkids that live inside with me, none of them fight nor do they attack each other. I have found a way to determine how well they will get along with other non-related furkids.
When I went to the shelter last Friday (Jan 31st), I had in mind to get a little black kitty that showed an interest in coming home with me. After I picked him up from his cage and began to walk next to the other cats in their cages, I felt him growl and hiss at them. It was then that I knew that he would have a difficult time integrating into my pride. So, I also remember holding a somewhat reticent kitty that previous Monday. When I identified him among the other 5, he passed the same test. This is the one that I adopeted.When I brought him home the others did not attempt to attack him, nor did he hiss and growl at them. Although I have 3 furkids who do not readily accept another pet into the pride, they still did not attack him. Now, he plays, sleeps, and is beginning to eat, with the others. It has been less that 5 days for them to accept him.
