Males Cats will they fight

I have a male cat and if i get another male kitten, would they fight?

Answer by Kate
The quick answer is probably yes. Cats are ruled by instincts and territory is very importnat to them so another cat moving in will be seen as a threat. If you were to consider getting another cat egtting a female cat may be less of a threat but they would still need to be introduced to each other gradually following my advice on the training pages.
If you do get a male cat make sure they are both neutered as this will reduce their aggression but again you would have to introduce them gradually and then there are no garantees that they would still not fight from time to time.
