Hi guys,
My resident cat Tinkerbell is an 8month old persian cross, she is usually really fun, carefree and playfull,
Today we picked up Daisy, our new 8week old persian cross kitten,
I was unaware of the correct process of introduction and introduced tinkerbell to daisy straight away which i know now from reading the behaviour link that I shouldnt have done, i know now I should have separated them and introduced slowly with scent,
Daisy had settled in straight away, eating drinking sleeping using her litter tray, Tink on the other hand is having real "only cat syndrome" issues and is constantly following Daisy and not letting her out of her sight, she is occationally hissing and keeps hitting her with the flat of her paw,
I really need some advice on how to restore the harmony in the house and how to help the become best of friends.
Many thanks
