I have an older male cat (about 9 months). I brought home a new kitten yesterday. I have kept them separated, and have had them together several times, but only for a few minutes. My older cat has been licking the kitten, and then biting her. Once, he even picked her up by her neck and was carrying her around. Is this normal? Is it only play, or should I be worried. Also, the cats have the same mother. I don't know if this will affect their relationship in any way.
