Hi There,

Take a deep breath! It sounds like the cats are just getting to know each other. However, I would not leave them together for long periods yet. Please be very careful when handling the cats because if they are worked up at all they might lash out at you. One of my cats does this for a few days when a new one comes home.

I think the cats will be fine and will work things out. The hissing and growling is normal. if you feel that they are getting too aggressive at any point, try distracting them.

The cats can and will pick up on your nervousness, so try to calm down a bit. I know this isn't easy when you aren't used to having more than one cat in the house!

Take care, and please keep us updated.

Regards,
PHKitkat
