Is owning more than one cat right for the cat you already own? If your cat is home alone for long periods of time and seems to be lonely, he may enjoy having another cat around. In addition, an older cat will often develop a new lease on life when a new kitten joins the family. However, cats who enjoy their solitude or are very territorial towards their homes and families may not appreciate sharing their lives with another cat.

There are also a few things for the humans in the household to consider. A new kitten means having to go through all of the frustrations of litter box training all over again. In addition, don’t forget about the expense of vaccinating and neutering your kitten. Adding an older cat to the family can also be a challenge, as the cat will have to adjust to a new home and may develop behavioral or health problems.

Although some people feel that their cats will be more at home with a cat from the same breed, many cats are quite happy to hang out with other cat breeds. Of course, you may want to reconsider pairing a boisterous, clownish Rex cat with a standoffish Russian Blue. Cat breeds with similar traits do better together than cats that are completely different. Of course, the Himilayan Persian and the Maine Coon breeds are so laid back and friendly that they adapt well to life with the most demanding or rambunctious cats.

Before you bring your new cat home, you will need to set up an area for him to stay in while he adjusts. You may even want to put him in a crate, especially if you are unsure whether he is litter box trained. Allow him to settle in for a day or so before you worry about introducing him to the rest of the family.

Instead of placing the cats together immediately, allow your original cat to grow accustomed to the new arrival gradually. For a smooth transition, be sure he does not have to share his own litter box, food and water bowls, or toys with the newcomer. Besides the fact that your cat may not like to share, there are important health reasons for giving each cat his own supplies. You can reduce the chance of your cats spreading diseases to each other and you can more easily monitor the appetite of each cat if they have separate litter boxes and food bowls. Also, cats who are forced to share litter boxes may decide to create their own private litter boxes in other, less convenient places, such as the closet floor.

Of course, there is one major problem with having multiple cats. Once you have two or more cats, everyone with a stray or unwanted cat will assume they can convince you to add just one more to the family.

There are three things that you can do to prevent your Persian cat from not only ruining your houseplants, but also prevent him from becoming ill. The first step is to prevent him from digging in the soil. This is easily done by covering the top of the soil with pebbles or rocks. Space between the rocks will still allow water and air to get to the soil, so this is usually not a problem for the plants.

The next thing you must do is prevent your Persian cat from chewing on the plant itself. This can be done with bitter apple. There are also many sprays that are safe for the plant, but act as a deterrent for the cat. Be sure to read the labels, and to follow the directions for use.

This will help to keep your Persian cat and your plants safe, but there are also plants that your Persian cat will greatly enjoy, which you should strongly consider providing strictly for him. Start with a long planter filled with various grasses. One of the best things to plant for your cats is cat grass, which can be purchased from your local nursery, and you can also actually plant bird seed, which produces a variety of benign grasses that are safe for cats.

Other plants that your cat will enjoy include catnip, basil, begonia, bamboo, alyssum, butterfly bush, catmint, chamomile, coriander, cress, dill, forget-me-not, hollyhock, impatiens, lavender, lettuce, lovage, marum, mint, parsley, rose, rosemary, spearmint, snapdragon, spider plant, sunflower, tarragon, thyme, and violet. Again, these are plants that the cat will like, so you should expect them to be chewed on, rolled on, and laid upon as well.

You should also consider a potted tree or two that your Persian will enjoy. Make sure that you purchase sturdy trees, and that you secure the container that they grow in so that the cat doesn’t continually knock the tree over.

If you have plants that your cats love, but you want left alone, again, cover the soil with rocks or gravel, and make sure that you treat the leaves, flowers, and stems with a product that works as a deterrent for cats. Your houseplants and your Persian can reside in the same house after all in peace and harmony.

First, depending on the requirements of your breeder, you may be forced to have your Persian spayed or neutered or it may be done by the breeder before the cat is even allowed to go to your home. If the cat is not to be spayed or neutered, you can and should expect to pay a great deal more for it because this gives you breeding rights for the cat which of course puts you in direct competition with the breeder.

You must also consider cat shows when you are determining whether you will spay or neuter your Persian cat. Most cat shows have divisions for altered and unaltered cats and they are seldom judged together, but beyond this separation, they are judged in much the same way. Obviously the behavior of unaltered animals is different than the behavior of altered animals.

This brings us to the case for spaying and neutering. If males are not neutered, they will spray to mark their territory. This is a urine odor that can be quite overwhelming and unpleasant for the owner of the cat. The only way to stop a male cat from marking his territory through spraying is to have him neutered.

In the case of females, an unsprayed female will go into heat several times throughout the year. This is usually accompanied by horrifying sounds at all hours of the day and night, which can be quite bothersome. Of course, if there is an unaltered male in the house, or able to make physical contact with the female cat, this results in a litter of kittens which may not be wanted.

Spaying and neutering cats has become very commonplace, and is quite affordable. Of course, it costs more to have a female spayed than it costs to have a male neutered. You should make an appointment with your veterinarian by the time the cat is between three and six months of age to have the cat altered. You will be instructed not to allow the cat to eat or drink anything after midnight the night before, and to have the cat in the office early in the morning.

The veterinarian will perform the procedure, and you can typically take your cat home by that evening. The veterinarian will give you instructions on caring for the area where the cat has been cut, and if any sutures need to be removed, you will return to the veterinarian’s office in about ten days so that this can be done.

Is there anything wrong with shaving your Persian? Well, opinions do of course vary, but in the grand scheme of things, many people shave their Persians for one of three reasons.

The first reason for shaving your Persian is to help get rid of parasites, such as fleas and ticks. It’s hard to work flea and tick shampoo down to the skin when the cat has as much hair as a Persian, and shaving in this instance is recommended, as long as you understand that more treatment is needed beyond the shave. Shaving itself won’t rid the animal of fleas or ticks.

The second reason to shave a Persian is if there is a skin problem or ringworm. In this instance, you could opt to just shave the affected area, but since this makes the cat look funny and possibly mangy. Many will opt to go with a shave style, such as the Lion Cut. Just as shaving does not get rid of fleas and ticks, it does not get rid of skin problems and ringworm. Additional treatment is required.

The third reason why one might shave their Persian is easier maintenance. Keeping a Persian mat and tangle free can be a full time job, and many owners find that it is just easier to have the fur shaved off and cut into a style. The fur does grow back, and those that prefer shaved Persians will usually have the fur shaved twice a year.

If you decide to shave your Persian, first find a good groomer that knows how to shave Persian cats. Next, make sure that the whiskers are not shaved off, as these can take up to seven years to grow back, if they grow back at all and whiskers are very important to cats. Finally, make sure that you don’t shave the cat all the way to the skin if it can be avoided. Leave an inch or two or hair on the cat.

Really think about your reason for shaving the cat. If you want to shave the cat for his comfort, forget it. The cat is perfectly comfortable, even on the hottest of days as they have their own way of cooling their bodies and regulating their temperature. Your cat’s fur is his pride and joy, which should be evident by the amount of time that he spends cleaning it and grooming.
