QuestionDo Siamese get along with other breeds of cat?Dr. Elliott, BVMS, MRCVS is a veterinarian with over 30 years of experience in veterinary surgery and companion animal practice. She graduated from the University of Glasgow in 1987 with a degree in veterinary medicine and surgery. She has worked at the same animal clinic in her hometown for over 20 years.Yes, although, as with any breed, introducing a new cat to an established cat needs to be done slowly and carefully. Siamese are outgoing and playful, and they generally enjoy having another cat (of any breed) to play with.Make sure each cat has her own food and water bowls, toys, bed, and litter tray. Keep the new cat in a separate room, and introduce them by scent first, stroking first one cat and then the other.
