Re: How do i introduce a new 16 week old kitten to my 18week old kitten?
Hi Apollo1,
My parents have always had cats and kittens all my life and I have found that introducing cats of any age to each other can be quite stressful, however I think you may have an advantage here.
With your kittens being very young and almost the same age I would say get them together sooner rather than later. Cats have a hierarchy system and so they sort that out themselves. I would suggest keeping a close eye on them for a week or so just incase. Kittens are very playful, so just watch out that it doesn't turn into more than that.
I notice you have a female and a male, are you intending to breed them? If not you will need to be extra careful when they get close to spaying age.
I have no experience of introducing two kittens, this reply is based on my experience of my parents introducing cats and kittens of varying age's, anyway I hope this helps you in some way. Good luck
