    I would introduce them very slowly. Have the new kitty in one room and slowly have them meet. First door to door then close supervision with the place for both cats to go if things don't go well. Slowly increase the time that they are with each other with supervision until you feel safe to leave them both alone without supervision.

    Thank you. I have wedged the door between them open an inch; I hope it will help them get each other's scent. I am trying to do some sort of slow introduction; I just pray it all works out, since my old guy is my love, but I would love to be able to keep this little one also, since she has come from a horrible house, and all I want to do is to give her a good new home so that she can find some love with me.

    Thank you so much. Currently I have the door between them wedged open about an inch, but since I work I have no idea if they have been exploring each other or not. I plan to put each other's towels in with the other to get their scents mingled, then I have purchase a portable dog kennel that I plan to put the new one in in a few weeks, so that they can actually be face to face, but safely.
