I have a 14 year old maine coon. Earlier this year, I found out that he has kidney disease. There is no timeline for this disease but it does eventually cause death. He's been the only cat for so long that I thought it might be good for him to have a companion, but now I'm having regrets. I adopted a 13 week old kitten the other day. He is really sweet so I thought they would get along. My older cat hisses at him whenever they see each other. I tried some of the tips they have online but I think I introduced them too soon. I felt bad about leaving the kitten locked in a room all day so I let him out. Now I feel as though my older cat is unhappy and that it was wrong of me to get the kitten as a solution. I feel it was somewhat selfish of me to think about a new pet when my current one is sick. Now I have anxiety about my adoption. Does anyone have any experience with introducing new cats into your cats life? I cant help but feel I did the wrong thing now. I don't want to ruin anything for my older cat nor for this kitten.
