hi there! I just adopted two kittens from different litters. One male, he's about two months old, and a female, she's three, almost four months old. I'm not sure about the ages, it's just a guess based on size/behavior, since both were found on the street. (They're both very healthy!)
I've always wanted two cats, I think that while cats are not too social, it's good for them to have companies to be cats, not just humans...
But my female is not so happy with the little male. He is very curious about her, but she sort of... Growls? When he comes close. What can i do? Just give them time?
Thanks!

Pretty much. They will eventually get use to each other.

A good way to help is keep them in separate rooms but have the rooms next to each other with the door closed so that they can sniff each other and get use to their presence/scent. I would do this for a couple of days and then slowly start introducing them but keep a close eye on them. Since they are so young I wouldn't worry too much about them not getting along ; )

Goodluck!
