Our 9 month old kitten doesn't seem to get along with our new kitten (9 weeks old)

[ianleonard66]

We have just bought a 9 week old half persian kitten (Gizmo) as some company for our 9 month old semi longhair kitten (Guiness) - both male. Unfortunately we made the mistake of introducing them right away (thinking we were doing the right thing until we looked it up & realised this was wrong). The older one keeps jumping on the little one & also hitting him every now and then and we're not sure exactly what to do. For now they are separated until we can find out what to do - we've only had the new one 3 days. Despite any of this the new kitten is still interested in the older one & tries snuggling up to him.

Does anyone know what we can do to make them get along? And also any tips on litter training the new one, he keeps peeing on any quilt he can find!

Thanks in advance for any help given.

Look forward to that Ian. I am sure they will be fine.

Make sure you post the pictures on a new thread, cos this one will be well hidden by then.
