Ok, so I've gotten 2 kittens. I've had Harley since she was 7 weeks (she's 12 weeks now) and I just got my other cat Misho about a week ago (she's 15 weeks). And they hate each other and I have no idea why. The worse part about it is they're not playing, they truly dislike one another. Please help.

The best way to introduce them is to keep them on separate sides of a screenor door, and ffeed them at the same time. They will then associate something they like (eating) with the smell of each other. YOu can start with them 6 feet apart, for a week like that, at mealtimes. Then a week later, bring them to 4 feet apart, but still on the other side of the barrier. Then next week 3 feet apart, etc etc.
By the end you should be able to have them eat next to each other. As long as they can manage that, it will be OK.
You can put the new cat's scent on the old cat and vice versa. This will help them get used to each other.
