It is advisable to prevent the aggression towards other cats in the household by providing [[Effect of Environment on Feline Behaviour#Adequate Environment for Cats|adequate resources]] so that competition does not develop. Several feeding, drinking and latrine sites distributed around the home to enable cats to have a real choice of location for these activities. [[Cat Latrines|Latrines]] may also be created in the garden. The local cat population density and whether it can cope with the addition of another cat needs to considered before attempting to introduce one. Choosing cats that come from successful multi-cat households or that have sociable parents as well as [[Effect of Environment on Feline Behaviour#Introducing a Cat to a New Home/Environment|introducing them correctly]] is more likely to result in a successful outcome. Providing plenty of opportunities for appropriate play is also important.
