Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and are a new cat owner as well. I was walking home from the gym today with my girlfriend when we noticed this stray cat that was very weak. We felt bad and brought it home with us, and we fed him and gave him water. We are gonna get him checked out by the vet this week so we can make sure we treat him if he has any issues. Anyway, we have him in a cage right now just because he has been an outside cat for so long and we don't know if he is carrying diseases. However when we brought him in, our female cat which we have had for about a year now became incredibly defensive, hissing at my girlfriend and I whenever the scent of the new cat crosses paths. How long until my female cat will overcome this? I want this new cat to be able to live in unison with her. He doesn't seem affected by her, she is just very defensive towards him. He has a very calm personality, but to be honest, she is a very conservative cat. Help a fellow cat lover out
