CATS AND OTHER PETS​

INTRODUCTION​

from : The Complete Book of Cat
Despite their reputation for unfriendliness, cats can and often do become friendly with other animals. Cats who through some mischance have lost their kittens are especially prone, perhaps through a hormonal impulse, to adopt and mother the most unlikely small fry. Little chicks, ducklings, rats, mice, squirrels, rabbits, puppies – the list may well be endless – have all at one time or another lived in harmony with cats.

The nursing cats can adopt too other small pets, like in the following news:

Mother Cat Adopts 6-Day-Old Puppy Charlie ​

Even the worst enemies become friends when it comes to love. Dogs and cats are worst enemies but a mother cat literally adopted a 6-day-old pup after its mother abandoned it.
Satin – a mother cat has proved the fact that there is no bond or relation as stronger as a bond between a child and mother. She adopted a six-day-old abandoned Rottweiler puppy along with her own kittens and is presently nursing her. Workers at the Meriden Humane Society have named the pup Charlie who now plays alongside the black and gray kittens recently born to Satin.

Charlie's mother was spotted near a road in Meriden after she gave birth to two puppies, out of which one was stillborn. Scientists say the presence of stillborn in the litter makes it difficult to adopt the healthier pup.

According to volunteer Chris Chorney, who bottle-fed Charlie every two hours, "The kittens scrum up with him and the kittens treat him like one of their own. There's a certain social benefit of small animals being with each other."
Somewhat more difficult, because it has not been arranged by the cat, is keeping alien pets together under the same roof. Usually this involves dog and cat, and the results are unpredictable, though successful often enough to be worth trying

CATS AND OTHER PETS​

Rabbits ​

from : Perfect paws

Rabbits character
These animals are an entirely different "beast" than cats. Unless you already have experience with them and knowledge of their needs and behavior, you must be willing to do some research and gain at least a basic understanding of rabbits. Their needs are similar to but at the same time, very different from a cat's needs. A rabbit that is confined in a cage to prevent house soiling will not be much of a companion for your cat. Therefore, house training your rabbit is a must. Without supervision, behavior training and rabbit- proofing your house, a rabbit can and will chew your belongings.

Behaviour issues
Can you understand rabbit language? What does it mean when its ears are back, forward, only one ear back, to the side, etc.? What does it mean when the rabbit lunges, circles or begins furious thumping when it sees your cat? Do you know what these signs mean? Are these signs of affection or hostility? What will you do when you observe these behaviors? At least with another cat, you're already familiar with feline language.

The perfect rabbit size
There are benefits to consider as well. While each can be extremely competitive with members of their own species, cats and rabbits can have harmonious, non-competitive companionship with each other. Introducing a half-grown or mature rabbit of a medium to large size breed is the recommended preference. A younger or smaller rabbit can trigger a cat's predatory instincts.

Presenting the rabbit to the cat
Have a friend bring Bunny to your home in a carrier. Set the carrier down in a quiet corner of a room and let the two see and sniff each other while separated. If they seem to get along, find a permanent location for your rabbit's cage. Make sure the rabbit has a secure place inside his cage to retreat to if he feels threatened. At least once a day, lock your cat in another room and let Bunny explore your home on his own. Watch both Kitty and Bunny get to know each other through the safety of the cage. If after about a week, they seem to like each other, then leave the cage door open and let them discover each other without a barrier separating them. Wait another couple of weeks before leaving them alone together.

Daily activities
A relationship between a cat and a rabbit can be very close. It is not unusual to find them licking and grooming each other. Cats and rabbits will often play together, usually with the rabbit chasing the cat. This game breaks up the daily boredom and gives them something interesting to do. Neither one takes the game too seriously, and neither feels the social pressures of same-species interaction.

CATS AND OTHER PETS​

Birds ​

from : Perfect paws
Wikihow
A good advice
Don't do it. Cats are predators, and these creatures are their prey. In the home environment, their presence can frustrate your cat. Your cat's presence will stress and terrorize them. One mistake or accident that leads to an escape of one of these little pets can be fatal.

If you are stubborn on the issue
It's possible to keep other animals when you own a crazy cat who likes to hunt birds for food. When cats are raised alongside birds, chickens, ..whichever animal; they develop a relationship with the other animal. Like, "I won't hurt you." Over time, it just doesn't fit into their brain cycle :giggling: . Silly as it sounds, in one case, two kittens were raised with three chickens. One year later, the two adult cats were frightened of the small chickens! It might've been due to the fact that the kittens had never seen anything so weird-looking in their life.

Steps to introduce the bird

• Preferably, introduce the cat and the animal(s) who will be living together.
• Exercise caution during the first encounter. Hold the animal tightly when it is meeting the cat. Ask a friend to restrain the feline as well.
• Let them sniff each other. If hissing ensues, use common sense and wait a while before another close contact.
• After about a week of introductions, determine whether or not it's safe to let them frolic freely in an enclosed area. Constant supervision is required.
• In the case where the two animals do not get along, progress with another week's worth of introductions, then try again.
• If all goes well, you will be able to have no worries about your cat killing your bird or any other delicate animals.

Tips for a successful meeting

• Play with the two together. Let them crawl on you...etc.
• Have treats nearby for good behavior.
• Show the same amount of attention to each animal.
• Try capping your cat's claws with store-bought plastic caps to reduce the incidence of injury while playing. Not all cats will let you do this.:X i would not do that

Warnings

• This procedure is recommended only for interaction between two juvenile animals. Whereas, the adult cat takes a much longer time to go through the introductions. Cooperation may not occur at all.
• Never leave a cat of any age alone with another animal that may be it's natural prey (eg: birds). Cats still have strong hunting instincts that can be triggered while you are out of the room.
• Bacteria occurs in cat saliva which can be harmful and infectious to animals, including humans, bitten by a cat. If a bite occurs, it is recommended that the individual receives immediate medical attention, especially those you suspect to have a weaker immune system.
