I posted earlier.. have a resident 4 yr old male (Ash) nutered cat, he's very cool and relaxed.
Just got a Kitten (Glory) (female 8 wks old) last Friday (not this past friday).
Had her isolated for 2 days, then on Sun night put her in a cat carrier and brought her out.. He smelled her and al that but did hiss and then lunge at her a few times.. so we figured it was too soon. Isolated her again until the present time. (1 week)
We did some of the suggested stuff, we put him in a room for a while and she comes out and checks out the rest of the apartment plays around drinks his water and all that, then goes back, he comes out chills out like normal. Had a blanket for her she sleeps on, and a hand puppet she attacks constantly.. brought those out for Ash to check out, he sniffed, nad walked away, no signs at all, he doesn't really seem to care.
We cracked the door to the room she's in just enough so they can see eachother... couple of swats, no hissing at all, but its a chore to even get them to interact for long enough, he pretty much just looses interest and walks away...
So with all that when do I know its the right time to get these 2 together?
