Older cat & new kittens

Hi I adopted 2 rescue kittens 15 months ago, theyre happy & spoiled rotten, 4weeks ago I adopted 2 more kittens & thats where the fun has started.

Willow was terrified of them & legged it as soon as any one them went near him, asa last resort he'd hiss but thats all he'd do, he's now more tolerant but likes his peace & quiet, Mogwai is the one Im worried about, he was the dominant cat out of my 2 older ones, & he's taking longer to accept the kittens, he hissed spat & swiped at them & growled any time he looked at them at first, now he will sit in the same room as them & tolerate them but is still very sulky, (Mogwai & Willow were feral when I got them at 4 weeks old & have never been cuddly cats but would sit beside me & snuggle in) although they do come for attention they arent as keen to sit with me & Willow was off his food for a few days, though is getting back to normal now.

Mogwai is still being really picky with his food & has lost some body weight, which Im not happy about, Ive put food down in other rooms as well as in their bed, so Mogwai can eat when he wants, he's just taking longer to settle down, & get his appetite back, Ive put sardines & all sorts down for him but he's still not eating as well as he was before the kittens arrived.

Im worried about him has anyone else had a cat react this way to new cats/kittens in the house? Any advice would be much appreicaited.
