ok, so i let eazy out of the bedroom, i know its only beem a couple of weeks. but he wants out and heyu wants in.

now they are running balls to the walls, from one end of the house to the other.
heyu is still gettting all puffy, but sometimes it seems eazy is the one chasing her.
once when eazy grabbed one her toys, heyu hissed and boped him on the head, and he he dropped, it.

it now i am watching playing hide n seek, sometimes he runs some she runs,,
lol sorry i am total newbie when it comes to introduceing kitten to cat

or mabe its a little of both?

simply put no. this is all play. if they were fighting to harm each other there would be no questions about it and there would be bloodshed. I wouldn't worry.

They're playing! The head bopping is normal, ours do it all the time.

Glad to see progress with them, Bruce!

The head bopping is a way to establish dominance. A reminder for the kitten to "respect his elders".

Must be a hoot watching them.

Congratulations on passing a huge milestone! It's so fun to watch kitties play isn't it? My older cat does the head bopping thing to my younger cat and it's quite hysterical!!
