This little guy (14 weeks) will join our crew this weekend. Our old cat died 6 weeks ago and we have two dogs, a Lab (6) and a somewhat crazy standard poodle (8). They grew up with my Maine coon and respected her but haven’t exactly cuddled regularly.

So now the baby is coming and it has been over 11 years that I had a little one in the house and it is a challenge for me. Also back then we lived in a large house and now in a 2 bedroom apartment. Do I need to separate the kitten for a few days and confine her to one room? Do I have to do the scent swap? Do I crate kitten in the middle of the living room so the dogs can get used to her?

If you have some hands on advice please let me know.
