Adding a Kitty

    So as of next friday we will be adding a kitten to our home. When Lilu was a puppy my roommate had a cat and lilu could care less about it, she obviously wanted to see what it was and Bob(cat) has no issues with it. However, I am just wondering what I can do to make sure that Lilu and Shalla will get along. Lilu doesn't have much of a chase instinct, a squirell walked right in front of her ans she just stopped to look at like, what the heck is that. Lilu is pretty skiddish with things she is not used to. So any help regarding this would be amazing! Thanks!!:cool:

    We will love them no matter what ![](images/smilies/wink.png "Wink") http://www.youtube.com/user/Kingsley1230 Lilu's page

    hi, i have a 3 yr old. basenji and we just got a kitten 3 weeks ago and it was hard at first. he wanted to play with it ruff!. he still does but not soo hard. i used this stuff called apple spray and rubbed it on the kitten for about 4 days. and he started to get more relaxed with the kitten. he's doing better now.

    @myran: Thh only thing you have to keep in mind that girls go into heat which can be a hassle whining male having to guard and often separate them during the critical period. I have several basenji friends that have 2 even 5 boy´s and it works as they are of different ages puppies are integrated in to the pack when they are less then 12 weeks.But it takes a strong leader males rarely fight to kill more to show who´s the leader and when the other gives up they calm down not so with females they can be really nasty. Are you going to show them and maybe in the future breed then yes a girl but if not i´d choose a boy as it´s cheaper to neuter a boy then sterilize a girl.Especially as you have to let her have one heat before surgery maybe it´s different over there.And as I said before you can have boy´s together that aren´t neutered.But as they´ve mentioned before go with your breeders recommendations. Good Luck,Michelle In the US, price is usually the same for a spay as it is for a neuter…. and usually people opt to spay before the first season in the US.

    I've seen, but never tasted, red velvet cake. Looks like everyone got a chance to enjoy it, despite Tiggy! Magnum was unbelievably well behaved during our Thanksgiving. Even my DH commented on it. I didn't even have to kennel him during dinner. I was so proud of him!

    @felakuti: I wonder where the light golden eyes come from…our brindle is from the african project, cayote? jackel? There are a number of different basenji lines that have "light" eyes, both domestic and from the Af project, but the standard for all basenjis is dark eye
