Margaret.....as I mentioned earlier I had a similar situation when introducing my two cats (first cat at the time being the same age as Saima is now.) I was new to the whole "cat thing" and really worried about all of the hissing. After a bit it calmed down a little, and one day my daughter called me at work to report of something that seemed to her to be amazing. She said "Mom, The cats are laying next to each other and Andy just started licking Trevor's face and now Trevor is licking Andy's face. What's that all about?" Being a former "dog family" we were really surprised and didn't know to make of it at the time but knew the "ice had been broken." Here's hoping that Saima and Miki will soon be cuddling too.
