Introducing two cats successfully

[@TisNessie]

the "jackson galaxy method"? I've been following it and it involved feeding times and closed doors and meeting face to face much later...

[@philipdouglas5911]

And it just puts off the inevitable. Hissing, swearing and swiping at each other is part of cat introductions. They have to sort things out for themselves during a face to face encounter. The Jackson method only delays this. Cats are not lovey dovey animals and are highly territorial which means that there is not going to be any love between them whether they are introduced face to face on day 1 or on day 20. Eventually they may learn to tolerate each other and may become friends but some hate each other for life. What is on the video is inevitable but the new cat should have been given a place of safety to retreat to first.

[@CrickBritt]

@@philipdouglas5911 lmao, your comment is ignorant. You don't want to give them the best possible chance of being friends by slow intros? Ok, I'm going to assume you're kind of a trash cat parent.

Heaters nahh they loved each other on the 3rd day I've seen worse. greys are dominant they are the leaders of the house only us witches or people who understands nature will get this. It was only 10 months so very playful

[@nrrork]

Eh... the steps were right, it just probably should've been done over the course of more than three days. But all cats are different, maybe they handling it better. When I brought my cat home, I had everything set up so she'd have a "safe" area to gradually come out of as she felt comfortable, with the full expectation that it might take her a few days to get used to me and a new house. I opened the cat carrier, she bolted out, explored every inch of the place, and was nuzzling me for attention in half an hour. ^_^

[@mikeedwards9087]

All cats want to be "THE ONLY CAT" in household unless brough and grew up as kittens!They never get along if introduced as adults!At first..but if patient with their introduction,sometimes very patient they can become or best friends or tolerate each other with small little fights sometimes.I spent once year introducing my new cat Charlie(street stray) into my multi cat house.My blind huge cat Sparty was the hardest obstacle as he simply treayed Charly as death threat and keep following him and attacking so Charlie was as huge himself defending than also very agresivelu!That would put in "fight mode" my other 2 males(even all neutered) -so safe separate room was a year and every days "visits" under our strict supervision etc..

we gonna need to see the proof on the 2 happy cats because didn't see that in this video

[@PNZTX]

Not in my household, it's been 25 days (and counting). We have made progress, but slowly. Today, both cats can look at each other through a screened opening. However, there are still signs of aggression by the resident (and older) cat. Being in the same room (non-controlled access) is still out of the question. No disrespect to the posting, but I'll stick with other proven methods. When both cats cease to show aggression/fear towards each other.., then I'll know the introduction process has been successfully completed. However, to this poster's credit, I like the cat home design...., plenty of climbing/escape areas for both cats. Three words sum up my process - "take your time". Both cat will let you know when "they" are ready to live together. In the long run, your children will appreciate your careful planning.

[@MrWilliamjamison]

What other method are you using - we are two weeks in and looking to get the new cat acclimated ASAP!

[@skygazer6898]

I have aggression, growling and hissing from both cats. Given me a massive headache as i just dont know what to do for the best

[@alexbenavidez4500]

This introduction seems a little rushed, but thankfully with their personalities it worked out I love how desperate Jack is to play! Even though Gerrit is still nervous and insecure, Jack is trying his best to come off as umthreatening as possible The first meeting with Gerrit in the crate was likely stressful for him as he would've felt trapped, hence all the hissing It went far more smoothly with the roles reversed and Ger being able to approach jack on his own terms, rather than being backed into an inescapable corner by a cat sticking his paws through the bars

[@bb3ta45]

It’s been two months and my cats still act like sworn rivals

[@elizabethpeterson1644]

I was 11 years old that my family adopted our 2nd cat from being a stray. When he met our 1st cat that started to wrestle in the living room. They became friends instantly. We didn’t kept them in separate rooms. The 1st cat accepted the 2nd cat inside the home. The 2nd cat was more than my cat but, he did spread the love to other members of the family. Both cats were very sweet and friendly in their own different way.

[@skygazer6898]

Yes. My cat Tammy accepted cats into the home from the start, no issues whatso ever. She was a beautiful, gorgeous cat. The cat I have now wont tolerate the new cat and the new cat hates him . followed instructions on how to introduce them but no luck at all. This morning, massive cat fight, fur flying everywhere and the new cat only has 3 legs so i need to take extra care of her. Both now, locked in separate rooms. Its a nightmare!

[@deenanthekemoni9821]

I think you did an OK job for the materials you had available, not everyone lives in a big multi floored home with three bathrooms. I think these two will do just fine, Ive owned multiple cats all my life and Ive seen much much worse when it comes to two cats being introduced. Youre a good person and u did the right thing. Screw all these negative ppl (who probably dont own ANY pets let alone a cat) that love to sit there and judge you. Safe behind their screen with their inner hatred and cynical self centered points of view. You did great. Have an awesome day Bro

[@TheDawnofVanlife]

I think a lot of people get to panicked when Cats hiss and bat paws at each other. Unless fur flies or blood is drawn, that’s just how cats interact. A successful cat house share is them tolerating each other. If they get to cuddling and hanging out, that’s just bonus. People want their animals to socialize like people and cats aren’t humans, they are felines. Prone to a lot of the same dominance behaviors as their jungle cat pals. I am introducing two in a studio. Gave the new kitten a den, but there is no locked off second room.

[@morgansoon3099]

Very nice! Happy to see your success. Thank you for sharing! I just went through this process. We adopted a shelter cat in November, 2022 and he seemed to need a friend so we adopted another shelter cat just last month (April 2023). They are both about 1 - 1-1/2 years old. We used the baby gate process; it took just over 2 weeks which included some supervised, short meetings in the same room. I think the time span is different for everyone. My existing cat was fairly nice, only hissing a little, but every time we let them spend a little time together, he got aggressive so we would end the session and just kept trying until he seemed more curious and willing to spend time together. I highly recommend the baby gates. I borrowed my sister's gate, but obviously cats can jump over that so I ordered a 40" gate from Amazon and we stacked them and tacked a small towel at the top opening at the door. After they had a few sessions together, we kept the door open when we were home. That helped the new one not feel so isolated and the existing cat would spend time looking into the room to see the intruder. The newest cat is the youngest, he came from a sanctuary where the cats roamed around together; he was very used to being with other cats. He works so hard (with respect) to win over our existing cat. They now both have the run of the house (condo). They play and clean each other on occasion. They are not friends yet, but at least we made it to the tolerant stage. Now my existing cat seems depressed so I'm trying to learn how to overcome this hurdle. I worked so hard to keep reinforcing love to my existing cat. Jackson says two are better than one; I am looking forward to the day I can say that.

[@TheWorldsprayer]

Actually a cage is ok after a week or so, but the cat bring introduced needs to be somewhat comfortable in the area. A cat carrier is FAR better be cause it has 3 walls so the cat doesnt have to feel surrounded but can defend a direction. You want view without access yes, but both cats need to be comfortable

[@KuroiHato69]

It feels a little rushed... But younger cats (below age 2) tend to get along better and faster than older cats. My 1 year old fell in love with the new 8 month old that I bought in. They are best friends. But my 7 year old tried to kill the younger cat I bought in and that was after a month of what I thought was successful integration. Had to go back to first introductions. This time we will take months Jackson Galaxy style to try to get them together.

I have tried every food, aromatic herb, pheromones, spray, etc. I’ve been using the Jackson Galaxy method of introduction. After a lifetime of many many cats, I am feeling quite insufficient for this process, but I will keep trying. Just be forewarned if the cats weren’t nurtured from kitten hood and you don’t know their entire backstory...you may be in for a very very long, drawn out and stressful process ...

I think it was awesome. I think it would be extremely RARE to have both cats lay over and play on their first face to face. Your resident cat has a lovely "curious" friendliness to him. Accepting more so than most cats. The new cat was more aloof but that doesnt have anything to do with it being rushed - his nature was more cautious. All cats are unique. They were already friends even the first actual meet F2F out of the box - similar to humans being nice but somewhat "reserved" their first few meets..so was the new cat. Retreated a little and somewhat "energetic" ...but all in all buds.

[@SerafinaS8]

Karen Luce Reserved? They are warry of one another. They barely tolerate was other, if you can say that about all the fighting which had place here, because they don't have any other choice. Also I haven't seen any playing on this video aside from the clip with feathered toy. Everything else was fighting. Also because of all the bullying, the resident cat just lost his all friendliness along with feeling of safety in his own house. It could have gone so well with such friendly cat. Now however I doubt the person who made this video and did the introduction in the way Jackson Galaxy disapproved is going to notice how insecure both cats are. They aren't going to fix it and cats can't either.

Introduction of my resident 4 year old male cat, 8Ball, to our new female 4 year old rescue cat, Queenie, is still going slowly after 3 months.. He is not happy cause he still hisses and swats hard at the closed door.. He is definitely not being nice but gradually nicer than 3 months ago.. We have not put them together visually except thru a glass door.. He scratches hard on the glass door, growling a bit, wanting also to go onto our screened porch.. 8Ball had never seen another cat before even when he goes to the vet.. He has experienced squirrels, opossum, raccoons, deer, and birds when on our screened porch.. He loves watching them and sometimes acts predatory.. I’m guessing at this pace it may be another 3 months before they fall in love.. The worst we can do is believe that they will just work it out if we throw them into an unsupervised play date..
