Problem: Article: You’ve finally reached the step where the two cats see each other in the flesh! This is an exciting turning point, however, this initial introduction must be done slowly and carefully.  Introduce the cats together by placing a barrier between the two of them so there is no way they can come in full body contact.  You can place the cat inside a crate and place the crate in the same room as your existing crate. Another option is to stack two 36” high tension gates in the doorway that separates two rooms and placing each cat in their own room. A third option is to jam the door separating both rooms with two rubber door stops. Crack the door two to three inches, and make sure that neither cats’ head can fit through the opening. This method will allow for greater physical contact. Be sure that you are home to monitor the two cats’ interaction regardless of which barrier method you choose.  Do not let the cats interact until they both appear fairly calm around each other. Mild aggressive behavior, such as hissing and then walking away, can be normal behavior for cats who have been apart for several weeks.  Aggression is one way that cats communicate with one another, and mild aggression is usually okay as long as they are not fighting. It is now time to remove all physical barriers and allow the cats to have their first face-to-face meeting. Remove the new cat from her cage, or remove the gate or door barrier that was used to separate them.  Stand close by as the two cats come towards each other.  Be aware that the existing cat may stalk and chase the new cat, or the newcomer may do the same if the existing comes and enters the isolation room. Don’t worry; this is normal.  Just be sure to supervise both cats throughout the interaction.  Avoid holding either cat in your arms during this introduction . You could end up scratched or bitten if one or both of them becomes aggressive towards each other.If your cats do get into a fight, do not try to reach in and break it up with your bare hands.  Instead, grab a nearby squirt bottle, water gun, water hose, or water bottle. Then proceed to dose the cats with water; this will probably end the fight within a few seconds.  Remember that this process may take quite some time.  It could just a few days if you’re introducing two kittens to each other and potentially several months when introducing two adult cats. Cats can become stressed during the introductory period.  Make sure you pay attention for behavior that could indicate that either cat is street.  Stress signs include whimpering, hiding, vomiting, excessive grooming/eating/drinking, spraying, and urinating/defecating in inappropriate places.
Summary: Allow each cat to see each other without physical contact. Let the cats meet face-to-face. Watch for signs of stress.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Not getting enough sleep definitely affects mood swings. It can be hard to get enough sleep sometimes when your friends want to talk or hang out at night, but remember that it's important to get enough sleep so that you can feel your best.  Of course you don't want to miss out on hanging out with your friends, but don't make it an every night thing. It's suggested that teens get 8 to 10 hours of sleep each night. Make sure you eat regularly and eat the right foods. This means staying away from loads of sugar and including a balance of carbohydrates, protein, fruits, and veggies every day. If you skip a meal or don't eat enough, notice if this affects your mood. Make sure you're eating regularly to avoid mood swings related to hunger.  A diet that is high in saturated fats and caloric levels may lead to depression.  Those who consume more water, fiber, ascorbic acid, tryptophan, magnesium and selenium have better moods overall. Diets that are heavy on legumes, fruits and vegetables, such as the Mediterranean diet, meet these criteria.  Add folic acid, which can be found in leafy greens and beans. Caffeine can interrupt your sleep. It can also cause nervousness, anxiety, shakiness, and dehydration. If you experience moodiness frequently, remove caffeine and see if it helps. It may be that one thing that pushes you over the edge.  The effects of caffeine are typically felt within five to 10 minutes and may last from one to five hours. Aftereffects may last for up to 24 hours.  A strong dose of caffeine may lead to jitteriness, increased heart rate, irritability, and restlessness. A strong dose is between 150-400 mg. (A coffee contains roughly 150 mg per 12 oz.; an energy drink is in excess of 100 mg per 12 oz; a diet coke is around 46mg per 12oz (or one can).)  If you do consume caffeine, try not to exceed 50-150 mg, or about one 12oz cup of coffee. Exercise can help you improve your mood, increase self-esteem, and improve sleep. When you exercise, your body releases endorphins, which help you get into a better mood and de-stress. Exercise is good for physical and emotional health.  It's recommended that teens get one hour of exercise almost every day.  Maybe you hate sports, but that doesn't mean you can't exercise. Walk the dog, jump on the trampoline, go in-line skating, or go dancing. Sometimes you may want to be left alone and avoid people altogether, and that's okay. But it's also important to spend time with friends. Maybe you have one friend you can tell everything to; talk to her and let her know how you're feeling. Talk to a trusted adult, such as a parent, guidance counselor, or coach. Talk to your best friend, or maybe say hello to your crush. Sometimes mood swings are just mood swings, while other times they can indicate a more serious disorder. If your mood swings are more intense than other girls', talk to a trusted adult about seeing a mental health professional to explore other causes. If you've noticed other symptoms, such as racing thoughts, incoherence, disjointed thoughts, or periods of excessive energy, this can indicate symptoms of other more serious disorders. Talk to an adult and a mental health professional.

SUMMARY: Get some sleep. Watch how hunger affects your mood. Avoid caffeine. Get some exercise. Talk to someone. Understand that mood swings can indicate more serious disorders.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Daily activity can strengthen a body and allow someone to move more independently. Even if a person has physical limitations, they should still get some level of physical activity every day. This can range from small movements or walking a few feet to a variety of exercises, including yoga and water exercise. Daily exercise gives people a boost to their physical strength and can also be a lively social activity. Try to encourage exercise options that are social as well as physical. Encouraging independence should include giving people the ability to do a wide variety of activities for fun. Providing a wide variety of activities, such as gardening, taking walks, and dancing, will potentially give a resident physical and mental stimulation and will encourage independence.  This could include having activities at the care center and providing transportation and support to do activities outside of the facility. Weekly (or more often) group outings are a good way to provide access to physical activities outside of the facility. These outings can be to a wide variety of places, including shopping areas, nature areas, historical points of interest, or other locales nearby. While encouraging independent physical activity is important, it's imperative to make sure that the activities you encourage will not cause physical harm. Take the resident's physical limitations into consideration when planning activities. In general, prioritize low-impact exercise, such as gardening or walking, over high-impact exercise, such as running.
Summary:
Encourage daily physical activity and exercise. Provide access to a variety of physical activities. Make sure physical activities are approved.
