Bringing a new kitten into our home with an exsisting kitten?

June 16th, 2010 by Two-Legs

We have a four month old female kitten. She has shown signs of being lonely bc my boyfriend goes to school in the morning, spends the afternoon with her, and goes to work until about 10 or 11 at night. I can only usually come over for about an hour during the week and I am there alot during the weekend. She tears up toilet paper and paper towels why we arent there, and whines for attention when we are there. So we decided it was time to get her a friend. It just so happened that our friend had kittens she was giving away. We picked a female kitten that is two months old. We kept our old kitten upstairs and set the new one up downstairs. Everytime we let them meet they hiss at each other but only when they get close. The old kitten is more aggressive and the kitten doesnt seem to care. I know that the older kitten is just scared that she will be replaced. Is there anything we can do to better the situation? Any tips?
