Tips for introducing your newest member of the household.

When to Get Help

If you're lucky, it can take just a few minutes for a new pet to settle in, although it's more likely to take days or even weeks.

But if you've come home to find your kitty cowering in fear, if one pet is always hiding, if your dog is displaying resource guarding behavior (such as snarling around its food) or being aggressive toward your cat, get help.

Don't wait until a pet gets hurt. Talk with a veterinary behaviorist (a veterinarian specializing in animal behavior). These professionals can help you troubleshoot so that your old and new pets get along.
