              	I would need some help from you guys,i would like to get
                another cat but i have my 3 years old siamese call
                Sebastian ,and i don't know if he would like to have
                another cat in the house he is jalous i did make an attemp
                before ,he did not like that he was mad at us and he would
                not be as affectionate like he used to be but i keeped the 
                kitten for only a week because i could not stand Sebastian 
                to be like that ,but i really would like to have another
                cat in the house ,i regret that i did not get two at the
                same time ,can anyone tell me what to do if i get another
                cat how to get the two cat to be friend and how long should 
                it take ,and if there is any risk that my Sebastian would 
                never be friendly any more because this is my biggest fear
                about that i wants him to stay affectionate and have the 
                joy of having two cat.

4212.1SANDY::FRASERMonsters remonstrated...Fri Nov 30 1990 12:0218

	Hi Jean - there are lots of excellent ideas in this notesfile about 
	introducing new cats into a household, so I won't repeat them here.
	There may be a keyword associated with the notes/replies.  Basically
	you need patience, as it can take time for a resident cat to accept
	an 'intruder'.

	Was the other cat you brought in a Siamese?  Ours all cluster
	together, even though only two of them were littermates.  We
	brought in a totally unrelated Siamese kitten last February, and
	while our calico hasn't accepted him yet, our three other Siamese
	took only a few days before bringing him into the fold.  Within
	a week they were all sleeping together and grooming each other.

	Hope this helps.

    That "fold" is no doubt a mutual admiration society.

    What's that???  A "Siamese-Fold"  ;-)
    
    Yes, definitely look at previous notes.  SHOW KEYWORD will list all
    the keywords in this file and you can use DIR/KEYWORD=<keyword> to list
    the notes associated with the correct keyword.
    
    Good luck.
