From then on, Puss will most likely be one of Junior's biggest fans. When babies reach the age of scooting around the house on hands and knees or bowlegs, they can present new problems for you and your cat. To keep your cat safe from toddler antics, create a feline sanctuary. Install a baby gate low enough for your cat to hurdle at the doorway of one bedroom, and put comfortable bedding and a litter box inside the room. As parents know, toddlers often have enough energy to power a major metropolitan area - and boundless curiosity that leads them into trouble.
New roommates mean new smells, new sounds, and new furniture.
And if the newcomer is a girlfriend, boyfriend, or spouse of the owner, the cat may get a lot less attention than before. Confronted with these unwelcome changes, some cats become territorial and channel their frustration into inappropriate elimination or aggression toward their owner. To smooth the introduction of a new roommate, follow the same steps you would with a baby. You cat should get to know the new person before he or she moves in. Ask the person to come over to meet the cat and leave some aromatic items of clothing behind.
