Introducing New Cats
Kittens usually make friends easily and are quickly liked or tolerated by established household cats. There may be some hissing and posturing, but the kitten will quickly become part of the cat family.
A new adult cat should be kept separate from the resident cat(s) for a fewdays. Alternate the cats among the rooms so that they will become familiar with one another's odors. Use the techniques for avoiding fear induced aggression when introducing the cats.
Of course, your veterinarian should examine the new cat before you bring it home.
