Hi...

One of the most important things you can do when you bring a new kittie into the home is to keep it in a separate room for at least 2-3 days.. That will give the other cat(s) time to "sniff" their scent and will give all of them time to adjust..

If you don't do this all hell will break loose. Also females will get along better with females than males and just because you neutor, spay them it doesn't mean that they will get along..

Perhaps you are bringing new cats into the home to quickly and perhaps too many at one time???

I suggest that when you bring a new cat into your home to

1) keep it separate for a few days..
2) put an item of clothing, bedding or other that has the smell of your other kitties and then place a piece of material that the new kitties has around your regular ones. This give them a preview of who has just joined their home..

3) Feed the new kittie separately for a week or two to prevent aggression from the others.

4) Make sure you give your regular kitties more love and attention than usual and certainly more than the new one..

5) It is not a good idea to have that many cats in one home unless you are a shelter.. cats do not like to be crowed and are usually not a "pack" animal..

If you have any other questions or I can be of further help please see my info on "CATZNUTZ" the e-newsletter for cat lovers..

Thanks and good luck!!
