I want to point out that this method of introducing a new kitten should be used carefully. I know my older cats very well and they are very sweet and gentle. I was always ready to intervene if things would go out of hand. It is natural behaviour of Caesar to hiss and try to look scary in front of the others. The important thing is that they do not turn agressive and start to fight. It is not a method that I recommend everyone to use. For many other cats and kittens, a slower introduction might be better. After the initial meeting, Caesar quickly calmed down, but was of course still a bit cautios for a couple of hours. I came home with him late in the evening and all cats in the house were already good friends with each other the next morning. So a big advantage with this method is that it goes much faster, which is nice for all cats involved. I hope you enjoyed the video and I hope this little text can answer some of your concerns 🙂

I liked how the big golden boy thought nothing of the kitten, just like...oh cool, another buddy. He'll come around.

That kitten just went through a rollercoaster of emotions from first arriving to meeting cats a couple hours later. Cool to see he’s chilling now ❤

Buster is clearly the lord of the house. Self assured and obviously not threatened by the little kitten, he just sniffs and then goes on about his business around his domain... 😆 Beautiful cat

Buster is such a easy going cat, so relaxed and calm. Gentle little soul.

I had a Maine Coon. He was the sweetest, most affectionate fellow. They really are gentle giants.

Buster is the boss but clearly very easy going, you let them all meet on their own terms which was spot on, you have a good gang there !

Caesar is adorable! What a growl on him. He seemed to lose his fear quickly. I always comforted all my cats when a new member joined the family. No one was ever injured, except when my largest guy, Tyler, a 20 lb. tuxedo, scratched the nose of our Siberian Husky. The dog stayed away from Tyler from then on!!!

What a funny noise Ceasar made.🙀😹😹 He made himself as big as possible, also made as big voice to go with. At the end they are all a one loving happy family 😽😽😽😽💕💕💕💕

Blimey, that's what I would call fast-track integration! Buster is incredible. What a beautiful temperament.

Maine Coons are a spectacular breed of cat. Beautiful and intelligent and love their humans. Little puss is so brave to take on her elders; just takes time and patience.

At first my heart broke for that gorgeous kitten... But you comforted him. Thank you. He certainly has loving roommates. And a loving human mom.❤️

All of these cats are grorgous. What fun you must have sharing your house with them.

Wow, that orange cat was completely unfazed by the hissing and fight stance of the other cat.

Oh thank God! I watched till the end and now Im breathing again! Not that i thought you'd let anything happen to that stunning kitten. Buster has a heart of gold! So elated they will all be friends! ❤️❤️❤️

Male orange floofs are always so chill. My favorites. ❤

Aww, Caesar is a handsome lad, and he seems to be settling in. He found himself a good home.

So relieved they became friends quickly. I was very concerned initially for Caesar when you were introducing all the cats one after the other. I felt his stress so much I could barely watch. Glad your cats are friendly and that the process went smoothly overall. Thanks for the explanations in the description too, it helped me relax :) and thank you for adopting so many cats 😻

Awesome! Buster scared Caesar with his huge size, Caesar played big boss but Buster couldn`t care less 😹 he`s far too relaxed. But Luna`s look at you "what have you done to me, hooman, how dare you?" 🙀 priceless! Good that Coonies are most times too relaxed to attack, they`re more like "who are you, can we be friends?" A piece of gold for Luna`s thoughts in this moment!

That kitten looks full grown! Maine Coons for ya!

Buster is an amazing cat. So calm x kind. Shouldn't laugh at poor baby but he'll soon fit in x be happy.

I hope you enjoyed watching! If you want to see more of Caesar and the others, take a look at his first 10 days in his new home here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hM-eh7R-1KjDhIU.html

Pretty confident little guy, all things considered! All so different, going to make an interesting team. 🇨🇦💕

This was so much fun to watch!!! Ceasars is just gorgeous!!! Love that all the kitties adjusted. Look forward to all their antics. They are all so precious. ❤❤❤❤

Ohhh wow he is so cute 😀😀😍😍😍 each cat has it’s own charm they are sooo adorable 😍😍😍😍

You have such a gorgeous bunch of kitties!

What a beautiful kitten. He has so much personality to be so young. He was obviously socialized as a kitten. I wish the breader was closer; I'm in the USA.

He and Buster will be hanging out on the cat wall soon. That's way I introduced Silas to my other 2 masters of Mayhem. Now Silas is I'm the middle of it. It'll be cool! Thanks and love ya Buster ,Freya, Luna and Caesar. Can't wait to see what you'll be getting into!

Caesar is absolutely beautiful! Great video, nice to see that they get along so well so quickly. You are such great kitty parents. 😻

Oh wow, everyone's looking out for the kitten. What a lovely dynamic you have there.

Thank you so much for videos with no music, low music, minimum music. It’s really wonderful to hear the cats!

wow such beautiful cats 🥰

Apologies for the missing comment - the keyboard had a tantrum! I loved this meeting and the reactions of all the cats. I haven’t had much to do with cats apart from looking after a couple of strays once; one was reunited with her owner, and the other turned out to live two doors down and was after extra treats (she still visits). The reactions were fascinating - Buster looking a bit startled when Caesar yowled but soon regaining his customary unflappability, Freya asserting resident kitten rights and Luna staying calmly in the background. And such a lovely family group at the end - thank you for sharing, not to mention a deal of hard work behind the scenes.

Such a Beautiful cat

Just so adorable to watch him settle in and be accepted ❤️

Geez! You introduce them far earlier than I do. It takes me a month. And I get none of that fighting and stress.

Buster is completely unbothered by anything. :)

Luna was channeling his inner werewolf for a while 😂. They are beautiful cats!!

My main habit: watching your videos all the time❤

I hope one day I can provide for my wife and I like this. We love cats and the house is beautiful with all the cat things and decor. Living the dream!

that kitten is the size of my adult cat lol

Beautiful cats and kittens! 🤗

Buster is an exceptional pack leader.

Generally speaking that was *not* a good introduction. Buster was a very good boy, he was not aggressive, he was not overly dominant, and his interaction with Caesar was basically just curiosity during the introduction followed by ignoring him. That was probably the best thing that could have happened there because he immediately told him "I am not a threat to you. This is my space but I am okay with you being in it." Immediately after, though, the first thing Freya does is stare Caesar down. That's saying "I don't know who you are, but you are in my territory." A staredown between two cats can be interpreted as an invitation to fight if neither of them back down, and thankfully around 5:50, Caesar chooses to do so himself. Even so, that could have gone very very differently if Caesar attempted a dominance display, and it looks like at around 6:00 that you can see him shivering as he lays down, which means that he was pretty stressed about the whole situation. Freya reciprocates this at about 6:09 by backing off and turning away slightly, but again, it looks like she *was* preparing a few moments earlier to fight. Maine Coons are naturally very laid back and relaxed cats. Even so, however, there was definitely a chance for a fight there. To me, I think the safest way of introducing these cats to each other would be to have introduced their scents to each other and associated them with positive experiences such as playing with toys underneath a door together, or having them eat dinner on either side of the door. I am glad that nothing bad happened, but to everyone watching, I would recommend you take introductions slower if you are introducing a new kitten into a home that already has cats.

Was für wunderschöne Tiere! Ich liebe Katzen!😽

Look how big iam, i am dangerous Caesar trying to say 😂. So wonderful. Interesting how fast ceasar went exploring despite the permeating other cat smell. Gentle giants love them

3:00 so cute when it puffs up like a cottonball

Not even marvel has so good character development!

I like that angle the kitten takes.

I did this for my cats too. I was getting a second cat and watched some vids on how to introduce them. Slowly introducing them through smells and door cracks for moments at a time and it stretches out to like a week before fully showing them to each other seems too needlessly tedious. Since I work from home I thought, they just need more interactions with each other before they become friends and since him always there I can break up any situation that gets too dicey. The key is increasing the fun/good interactions. Feeding them together, treats and playing. The cats seeing you, their human, treating the other cat the same way as you treat them will help them not see the other cat as a threat. There will be fur furrowing and hisses but that goes away quickly. Using that method within 48hrs they were the best of buds. Always playing, grooming and sleeping with each other.

As soon as that tail went up it stayed! I’ve heard tail-up described as “confident and friendly”. In my experience (with my Maine Coons and my non-MCs) it means “Everything is mine. I require attention NOW!”

At least, they need some days before being introduced: first, they will need to hear without seeing each other, after get used to smells, later to see each other from distance without real contact. Eventually snd little by little small encounters till arriving to mutual tolerance.

I like to introduce my cats. I pick them up and tell them each others names

Buster seems to be the Chad of the group lol

Caesar: "I do a fierce!" Me: This is the cutest creature that has ever lived.

They are magnificent.

Wow...no hair flying...kitten is so very brave...❤❤❤❤❤

Lindíssimos 🥰🥰🤗🤗❤❤❤

I luv em so cute they have no clue how much they make us laff lol

Ils sont magnifiques ces chats et ils sont calmes .

THEY’RE SO FLUFFY!!!!!

Freya has the most incredible tail!

Congratulations on getting the new kitty 🥰👍

golden kitty is king of house :D greetings!

Buster’s like “why’s this new kid an angry muffin?”

You are the great family always very cute- Buster, Luna, Freya......and Caesar together...Gorgeous and funny video 😻😻😻❣️❣️💯💯💋💋✨✨✨✨✨

I prefer to let the get acquainted under a door for a few days, and getting their dinner close by. When they start playing footsie under the door, fuller introductions are in order--generally over dinner as well. The meal is a great distraction to drama.

Thankfully your other 3 cats are so chill.. They're all very beautiful sweet kitties.

1 thing that i love abt mc they are so relax n laid back style..

Well done, 🤞👏now clean the floor 😂😇

God this is too much for my heart. I'm melting down💙

Did you notice how the kitten is gorgeous when he grownnn😊❤❤

Love how ginger cat out of the 4 was the most chilled 😂

You will never find a more playful cat than a maine coon. And boxes .. they like to sit on boxes

so cute lovely video

I love these guys!!!!

OMG The two gray ones together look beautiful

Love your Coonies…miss our big boy but we now have Bengals. Congrats on the mew lil Caesar.🐾🐾🐈‍⬛

Many thanks for the great video!

I just love Buster he is an epic cat 🐱

Amazing how fast he switches

Cat introducing takes time, it goes step by step in a large time period I think

Beautiful cats all.

Pretty cats 😎👍

Super story as ever, looking forward to seeing more of how they all get on together

Buster seem soo chill

Светлый кот - ментальный лидер. Воплощение спокойствия и миролюбия.

A great sign from the start that they didn’t hiss at each other

Buster sure wasnt too impressed with the agressive display from Ceasar. 😂😂😂

WOW, that was a fast introduction. Poor baby. The terror he must have felt. New house then 3 cats are thrown at him😢😢😢

lovely meow

Love when they talk I'm tongues😹😹😻😻

2:25 "OMG you're enormous!"

The last cat to come out was starring at you like "😑 you for real right now" 😂😂😂😂

“How many more of these damn cats are gonna come out?!!”

Buster is a true Sigma. He wasnt bothered at all! 😂😂😂

Whoooa maine coons must have a good temperament cuz it took 3-4 months integrate my two cats! Not just 1 day! Holy cow....😂

That is one hell of an arched back!

Wonderful family

Of the four cats, Freya is my favorite.
