3 New Cats - introductions

Hi everyone,

We just took in a mama cat and her 2, 4 month-old (I'm guessing on the age) kittens. They're rescues from a woman in a shelter whose husband threatened to euthanized them if they couldn't be rehomed. I have them in the upstairs bedroom with water, food and a litter box.. We have 3 little dogs in the house (2 Poms and a Beagle). They are overly curious about the new arrivals and thus far I've been keeping them all separated with a gate. Here's the question....what's the best way to introduce everybody? The dogs don't hang out around the gate so I'm guessing that they're not really meeting in that respect.

Any advice would be appreciated.

If you haven't already; I would search and post in the Behavior forum for help with how to introduce everybody.  This article is written by one of our repected veterans around here: http://www.thecatsite.com/a/introducing-cats-to-dogs.   That should have some good info too.  But dont hesitate to post your questions too!

If you need any help with the site; feel free to send me a direct message!

Thanks so much for the helpful link!
