Welcome.

Getting a new cat would be wonderful. Your cat may or may not mother a new baby, but they should bond if given time and proper introduction.

The first thing you should keep in mind is not to rush things.

New baby should come into your home and be placed in a single room away from the resident cat. He should have all his needs in there, litter, food, water....etc. They will sense each other from under the door and by smelling each other on you.

Whe they do meet, always be there to supervise and make sure that the resident cat gets the attention. Do not allow them to be allone together until you are sure they will be no serious fights.

Be ready for hissing and growling, it is NORMAL and expected. Only break up vicious attacks, sparring is to be expected.

Mostly......have fun and post pictures
