Hello, I have one 6 year old male cat (Oliver) and am planning to take in a new kitten within the next week. The new kitten is a rescue in need of a loving home & family. I have been planning on taking her in for a few weeks now. However, we just decided in the past week that we will be moving within the next couple months. We are trying to find a multi-family home in which the two cats would still be able to co-mingle, but if that ends up not being the case, Oliver would go with my mom, and the new kitten with me. I am worried that introducing the two cats to each other and then separating them just a couple months later may be too stressful on both of them. The introduction isn't the big concern so much as the possible separation. Have any of you ever fostered kittens with cats already in your home? How did they react once the fostered kitten was gone? Will they become too attached in that amount of time to be separated? Will it cause too much stress on my Oliver to have a new friend introduced and then taken away a few months later? Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
