When we bring a Siamese cat home and it becomes a family member, it begins to interact with its surrounding environment. The Siamese cat’s living environment is not only composed of inanimate objects and decorations but also other active pets at home. Getting along with other pets determines the Siamese cat’s quality of life and mental and physical health. However, in the beginning, the Siamese cat is still a mischievous child. To help it integrate into this big family, the owner's training is very important.

　　1. How do Siamese cats get along with dogs?

　　Of course, the owner should not show favoritism. When feeding the cat and dog daily, be sure to feed them separately. Do not try to place their feeding bowls together before the cat and dog are fully familiar with each other. We know that both cats and dogs have food-guarding habits. To avoid fights during mealtime, prepare two bowls with their respective food and let them eat separately.

　　Secondly, treat the dog and cat consistently. Encourage them when they behave well and discipline them when they make mistakes. Also, when both the dog and cat are relaxed and comfortable, you can try allowing them to come into contact and get familiar with each other. Occasionally letting the dog and cat interact in daily life can help to narrow the distance between them, slowly eliminating hostility, so they can live together peacefully.

　　Some people worry that because cats are small, they might be attacked by dogs. Also, the cat may scratch the dog’s eyes out of fear. To prevent this, the owner should hold the cat initially, allowing the cat and dog to gradually adapt to each other. When they understand each other’s temperament, the dog and cat can happily and peacefully live together.

　　2. How do Siamese cats get along with fish and birds?

　　Siamese cats do not eat fish, but they might try to attack the fish in the tank. When the cat approaches the fish tank or birdcage, immediately scold it. Cats really like lively things like goldfish (detailed introduction), and small birds. How to train Siamese cats? Even if there was no intention to eat them originally, when the cat sees the slow-swimming goldfish or the fluttering birds, it will arouse its interest and instinctively reach out its paw. Therefore, it is necessary to scold it when it first approaches, teaching it not to swat.

　　Well-behaved cats will stop approaching after being scolded a few times, even if they still stare intently, they won’t swat. But most cats do not give up this fun play. How to train Siamese cats? If the cat listens when the owner widens their eyes, but immediately rushes over once the owner looks away, then the fish tank or birdcage should be placed where the cat cannot reach, or cover the fish tank with a metal mesh and hang the birdcage from the ceiling.

　　3. Can Siamese cats be taken out for walks?

　　Yes, but cats and dogs have very different personalities, so walking cats requires different approaches. Before taking the cat outside for a walk, it should first become familiar with the leash and harness (many cats do not adapt at first to these and may not even walk, which is a habit of cats, similar to how they react when first dressed). It is good to take cats outside for walks to explore, but don’t take them out recklessly. Be well prepared, and only after everything is ready should you take them out for a walk.

　　In conclusion, since you have chosen the adorable Siamese cat to enter your family, treat it well and strive to create a suitable environment for it. Perhaps it will reward your kindness!
