    Hi Lois -

    You ahve your settings for "no emails" so I wanted to let you know I did receive your message.

    Just keep your expectations realistic: you can't make them best buddies, they have to do that on their own. You CAN insist they live together in peace.

    PEACE! lol to you.

    As others say, slow and steady wins the race. Most people want to rush things. A slow (and I mean 30 days) introduction goes along way towards peace and harmony. A bad interaction is much harder to recover from.

    First thing...make sure Big Boy tested, neutered and vaccinated before you introduce him to your cats. Then be patient. All the others that gave you advice, I couldn't add anything else.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02
    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
