Congratulations on your new pet!

A Few Quick Reminders:

1. Adjustment time: It takes time for new pets to adjust. So be patient. Don't force a bonding session. Let them come to you.
2. Kids: For the first few weeks make sure pets and kids are supervised at all times.
Pets: Animals are territorial. If you have an existing pet make sure the initial introduction is done on neutral ground like a nearby park (not a dog park) and that all pets are on leash.
1. Separate water and food bowls.
2. Separate beds.
3. Separate toys.
4. Separate sleeping areas for the first few weeks!
