Most people who try to introduce a new cat to a resident cat, know how difficult it can be. Following all the rules of introduction and using the usual pheromone products, don't guarantee success. In fact we wasted a lot of money on plug ins and sprays
We did the above and after nearly 3 months our cat who used to be very sweet natured still turned into a monster everytime she saw our new little chap. We thought we were getting somewhere when we managed to get them to eat together, only to have her pounce on him as soon as she had finished her food. We had started to segregate them nearly all the time because it was easier than having to try and get them to be friends and I was getting really fed up with the battle!
Then I came across Royal Canin Feline CALM cat food. I honestly bought it as a last resort and really didn't think it would work as nothing else had. After a week, I saw a marked difference, my girl started to be more inquisitive than hissy, after another week she started to chase him around without growling at him, seemingly playful. After 4 weeks...they are chums
I really wish I knew about it sooner and saved myself so much agro. I have no monetary interest with this company so am only putting it out there because it has been the only thing that has actually worked and after reading on the internet of so many people having problems with their cats not getting on, thought this would be helpful.
I feed them 40gms each at night time and give them wet food in the day, it's worked

Now they are used to each other and used to getting on, I may half the amount I give them and increase the wet food and see if they still stay friends.
