The cat is 1.4 y.o., the potential kitten is going to be 3 to 4 months. I have no lockable rooms in the house, so I cannot really make them stay apart for days until they meet.
My goal for them is to play with each other. My cat is craaaazy active and playful, but she cannot entertain herself, so it falls down to me. You can't imagine my life, it's almost impossible to do anything on my own in peace, including important activities like work from home. So my goal is to make my cat friendly enough with the new kitten that they can entertain each other.
Feel free to point me to credible articles or even books about it, I'm ready to study the matter in-depth. I'm sure this has been discussed to death here, sorry. But I'll appreciate your own advise very much, as I know nothing about it.
P.S. Some random things I've wondering about, too: I've heard somewhere that you should take a towel and rub it upon both cats before they meet, so that they have their own smells on each other. I've also heard that you should adopt a male kitten if you have a female cat, as females compete with each other?
