I recently adopted a male 7 month old traditional lilac point siamese cat from a foster mom and have started introducing him to my other two cats. I have focused on introducing him to one cat for now and that is Miko, my 1 year and 3 month old female tuxedo cat. I started off with Miko because I tried introducing Haku (siamese cat) to our other cat chef but chef goes ballistic and attacks him.
Anyway, at first Miko hissed at his scent but over time after introducing Haku's scent to Miko she does not hiss as often. I began feeding them together then separating them after they are both done eating. Neither cat hisses and just enjoys the food. After separating them I pet both of the cats for a few minutes.
Here is where I need advice.
Today, I escalated and let them hang out supervised next to eachother because this past week Miko has been okay with Haku approaching her. While they were hanging out next to eachother, Haku put his head next to Miko. Miko proceeded to grumble and sound annoyed but she started to groom his head and then his whole upper body. She groomed his head and upperbody for a while with no problems but as soon as Haku moved, She hissed and got mad I think? I have a video of it. After that, I checked to see what would happen if Haku lied down again and she started grooming him again.
Is it bad and should I stop them if Miko grumbles while she grooms him and then hisses if he starts moving? Miko also doesn't like it if he approaches her quietly to lie next to her when she can't see him. She will hiss and lightly slap him then lay back down afterwards. She will then let Haku lay down next to her. Is this also normal?
