You should also know that this might not work out. Put the resident cat in the room and let the new one roam free in the house. Working with the carrier as suggested, would be good. Sometimes you can have them separated too long and the introduction is too slow and then things really don't work out. I would have had the cats together long before now. I know everyone is saying two months is not long but in my opinion (and it is just my opinion) that's plenty of time. Put her in another room and shut the door if she insists on being a stalker, say NO loudly when she starts so she knows it is wrong. Don't let the resident cat be a bully either. mine took almost a year, but they get along fine now. Growling, staring intently, and stalking usually come before an attack. Bring a towel to throw over one or the excellent idea above of a stiff piece of cardboard. I would let them together and see how they react. Slaps, hisses, and even a tussle now and then are not unusual, but deep bites and scratches that bring blood are not.
#Cat growling at new kitten full
A full out attack shouldn't happen, but a tussle with fur flying wouldn't be unusual this early in the game. If your resident cat runs up she will be invading a personal space and get a slap and a hiss. Two females are not known to be buddies, but they can become family and learn to love each other and provide entertainment. Two months is not long at all in cat's world for such a new change, so in time they will learn to coexist.
that she can easily defend and feel safe in. Then when you do let them together, put the new cat in a high up place like on a end table, back of the couch, etc. Put the new cat in a carrier and see what happens.
