Apologies if this has already been asked; I’ve had a look and couldn’t see a specific answer.
It’s been a week since I introduced a 13 week male Bengal to our existing 6 year old Bengal boy. Everything has been going pretty well. I did the ‘safe room’ the sock stroking, exchange of bedding etc. The last two nights they both slept on my bed, about two feet apart with their backs to each other, and when they are a comfortable distance apart seem to exchange ‘cat kisses’ (that slow blink
) and there have been no punch ups (yet) However, whenever either of the boys gets too close, one Lways spits and sets the other one off, and then they each wander off chuntering like Bengals do. Sometimes it’s the baby, sometimes it’s the adult.
Is this usual and should I just be patient? They don’t seem to hate each other, and the kitten certainly is quite feisty and can look after himself, but I thought things might have settled down a bit by now.
Many thanks.
