Hello guys!
I just finished introducing my new 10 week old kitten to my 4 year old cat. I got the kitten this Tuesday and have been socializing them through the bathroom door and a baby gate. Today, 5 days later, I finally took the kitten completely out and let my cat fully meet her.
All in all, it went great. There were a few hisses and a couple of soft slaps, but otherwise nothing too bad. As of now, my cat is sleeping under the Christmas tree super relaxed while the kitten sprints around the room in front of her.
My question is this....should I separate them tonight while we sleep, or allow the kitten to stay out? Should all of their interactions be supervised for a while? If so, for how long?
