Thanks guys, they had to go to separate homes in the end as the lady didnt really want the hassle, she took the two of them home and then came back later today, a little stressed and with one of the cats, so I have a new home for the other little one. Would have kept him myself, but my two, actually want to kill it, but thanks for your imput

It will take time, I have 8 cats, hubby wouldn't let me keep the ninth (starvin' Marvin). They all arrived at different times and different ages.

Feliway is a godsend especially when introducing a new one.

I use toys as distraction when they hiss and spit, the screwed up piece of paper is usually more interesting especially with a sweetie in the middle to find.

Does the lady want both? If she does then do all the usla introduction stuff. Seperate rooms and gradually introducing them to each other. Feliway is great of course! I would say give them to the lady so that they an settle in together rather than settle at yours and then have to settle again. With Niamh and poppy when i was around i kept them both in the sam room with each haivng their own space. It worked eventually, took about 2 months and now they are as thick as thieves!
