When introducing a new pet to your existing pets, it's important to do so gradually and in a controlled manner. Here are some steps you can follow:
-
Start by keeping the new pet in a separate room for a few days to allow all pets to get used to each other's scents.
-
Swap bedding or toys between the new pet and existing pets to further familiarize them with each other's scents.
-
Allow short supervised visits between the pets, gradually increasing the duration as they become more comfortable with each other.
-
Watch for signs of aggression or stress, and separate the pets if necessary.
-
Be patient and provide positive reinforcement for good behavior.
By following these steps and monitoring the interactions between your pets, you can help them adjust to each other and hopefully form a harmonious relationship over time.
