How do cats react when you get a new cat?

we have 2 cats and we want a third. who would have more problems with the new kitten, the dominent cat or the cat who's second in line?

the dominent cat

both. dominant deosn't want other muscling in and the second in line cos it is now possibly gonna be third in line

Mine got real offended.

THE DOMINANT CAT MIGHT BUT THEY WOULD BOTH FEEL TERRITORIAL UNTIL THEY GOT USED TO THE KITTEN

i have an 11 year old female cat and i am getting a new kitten. the best information i have found on this subject is to go to www.eukanuba.comgood luck!

The dominant cat because, they're usually aggressive when it comes to new animals in the home. The dominant cat will try to fight for dominance in the household.

The dominate cat will be the worst. They will most likely fight and may learn to tolerate eachother. Don't expect them to cuddle. Cats tend to be spitefulWe have two cats (males and brothers) when we got our dog two years ago they hated him now they can be in the same room together but that's about it. The dog would love to be friends and play but the cats, mainly the domanite one will not have it. it is the same with other cats in my experience

being a kitten the tension wouldnt last 2 long , but the kitten would learn from the other 2.

They both would! Cats are very Territorial and it will take some time but they will learn to love him/her eventually!

they'll both fight,but will learn to be attached in 1-2 weeks

Most likely the dominant cat.Just keep the new cat separated for a week or so and let them be around each other a little each day.

We have 2 cats and the one we have had the longest, about 3 yrs now and the other 2 yrs, reacted really badly to a new kitten we tried to introduce, our 1st cat was very teritotial and did not like the new kitten the other cat seemed curious. It takes time for them to get used to the fact that the kitten is there to stay. They will get over it.

they would most likely become hostile at first and then learn to like each other.

They would both have problems with it butt would get used to the little one.

They react very badly exspecially if there older it is best to introduce cats at a young agae not when two grown cats very bad.

it depends what their personality is like-my angel (which is the third cat i got) bully's the other 3 sometimes. she tries to dominate (and she's not even the oldest) but i quickly put a stop to it, if it gets out of hand.

Cats are powerful animals and they like to dominate...so another cat can make them aggressive or feel ignored!
