Need advice on blending two fur families

[Don Juan's mom]

It looks as if my two babies and I will be moving in with someone who has two kitties of his own. I'd like some advice on handling introductions. Should I try to introduce my two to his two ahead of time?

Liz and Don Juan and Zerlina (who may soon be siblings with Rugger and Ramie)

I posted instructions in Lois' thread, under Cat Behavior, here:

All I can add is good luck. Hopefully if they don't like each other, they'll at least learn how to tolerate each other.

The only advice I have is slow and steady. And don't give up! Who knows they might just end up all loving each other!

I agree with Tazoee....looking forward to pics of kitty piles! (I mean the furry ones... )

I frst let them see each other , in the spare bedroom when the door is open enough for curious little noses, but not enough for swats!!!
I just let Tubster Panther in after his Vet Check Up as he was so big that noone was going to bother him.

I would see how the introductions go and act accordingly.
After all how would we act if we came home and there was a stranger inour living room???
