Probably the biggest factor is that Blackie smells different and maybe looks different than he did. Cream probably doesn't fully recognize him. Rub Cream with a towel and then rub Blackie, then rub Cream again to exchange scents. Keep the kittens separated for a day or so and let them sniff each other under a door. You could also try putting Cream in a carrier and let Blackie sniff around it, then put Blackie in a carrier and let Cream sniff around it. In a couple of days if Blackie is able to play then use a kitty wand and see if they will both play with it in the same room.

They will more than likely be good friends once again, as long as you don't force the issue right now.

Smile, it will make them wonder what you are up to!
