Getting a new pet is an arduous responsibility. It can be so easy to just see a kitten or puppy and think, "I want one!" But in reality, it's a lot of time, money, and effort to fully acclimate a new pet to your home, especially if you have a pet already. The story below centers around a new kitten freshly adopted. The kitten is so small and new, and the wholesome pet pawrent already owns a 3-year-old cat, as well as an overexcited doggo. The kitten hasn't gotten used to the other animals yet. Every time she sees the other cat, she starts hissing, and even tries to make herself look bigger. Out of desperation, the owner goes to the internet for advice. 

When trying to merge animals, it's always best to get real life advice from people who did it right. Usually that means keeping them in completely separate spaces until they're better acclimated. But you'll have to read the full story below.
