Hello!
I got a kitten at 8wks old in August after having my 3yo cat since November of 2019. I've been doing a slow introduction with them but aside from no more hissing at each others scent, not too much progress. The volunteer i was working with from the shelter advised a consider rehoming the baby but i dont have the heart to do that, i love him so much. Today, I tried giving them supervised time together after some people advised i let them work it out and establish the pecking order. There was lots of hissing/growling/swatting and about 1.5 hours later, a fight. They are currently separated and I'm switching back to visual feedings with a barrier (which has been successful. no vocalizations. just eating and walking away). Looking for more advise by im so stress, i cried a lot over it today bc i love them so much
