It usually takes about a week for a new cat to meet the original cat. Some cats are more afraid of strangers. If they are allowed to meet the original cat as soon as they are brought home, they may not be able to adapt. Therefore, you need to give the cat some time to adapt to the smell of home. In about a week, the new cat will be able to meet the original cat.

Notes on bringing a new cat home:

1. When bringing a new cat home, you need to first check whether it has infectious diseases, and When infected with internal and external parasites, it is recommended to ensure that the new cat is in good health before taking it home to avoid causing the original cat to be infected.

2. You can temporarily isolate the new cat from the original cat so that they can gradually become familiar with each other's taste, and then mix them together.

3. If the new cat and the original cat are hostile to each other and fight, the owner should stop it in time to avoid accidental injury.
