Hi, when we got our cat 5 years ago, he was a kitten, and we didn't really have to do anything to introduce him to our home. When we brought him home, we opened his carrier, and let him come out when he was ready (about 30 seconds), and we just sat on the floor and let him do his own thing, but he was naturally curious and was crawling all over us purring! After about 20 minutes we showed him where the litter box was and that was that, he was a part of our family and seemed very comfortable right from the start. He is extremely social and never hides, and is naturally curious of everything.
In a few weeks we are bringing home a kitten. I am wondering if we should introduce them right away, or keep them separated etc. for a bit, since I don't want the kitten, or my existing cat to be uncomfortable.
What have you done?
BTW, I also have two kids, but they are older 13 and 10.
