How to introduce a kitten to my dogs?

[Becky Brown]

I have four dogs and I am getting a kitten. My dogs are good with cats, but I currently don't have any cats.

What is the best way to to introduce them?

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately what The Nonn said could be very bad for u, your dogs could act differently than you are use to, and your kitten will end up running your shirt to get to the highest place. i.e your head, and it'd probably hurt. alot.

What i would do first, is keep your little kitty in a room separate(of course for the first few days u want to pay extra attention to the kitty)
keep water in there, a cat box, food. the essentials and along with a shirt. Same goes for ur dogs, get a shirt on the dog, then the next day, switch out shirts so that the kitten is use to the dog. The dog might like the kitten, but cats and dogs are natural enemies and the kittens first instinct of the dog will be to "hiss" which in turn will cause the dog to bark and possibly bite.

Becky,
In my experience I've carried the kitten into a room where the dogs are and put her on the floor close by me. As the dogs approach I would just say "gentle" or "easy" and the pups seem to understand that it's a baby thing. I've never had a problem with a dog being aggressive with any of my cats. They seem to know it's mine and it would be a bad thing to make me mad! lol
