Some cat-to-cat introductions go smoothly, while others may take weeks or months before the cats co-exist with each other. The best way to do this is to go as slowly as necessary, and make every interaction a positive one. A strong long-term relationship is built on positive encounters. Once serious problems develop, it can be very challenging to remediate. Rushing an introduction can cause such serious problems. Most cats will learn to live in a multi-cat household, and some will enjoy it more than others. This document created by the San Francisco SPCA with a grant from Maddie's Fund®.
