We have been trying to introduce our new 4 year old, 7 pound female to our 11 year old, 13 pound female. We have been going slowly for 7 weeks now. They eat on either side of a gate peacefully and we can get them to take treats in the same room. Anything beyond that has ended with the little newbie chasing resident lady ending in hissing, so we haven t proceeded beyond that. I don’t feel the newbie is trying to play. I am developing extreme anxiety about the possibility of them injuring each other. Nothing very physical has ever happened, but the little seems to be the more assertive of the two. Can she really injure my resident kitty who is twice her size? My husband and I are always right there with them monitoring, but my anxiety has really gotten out of hand. Thanks so much for listening.
