    Catkrazy you've got the right idea. Have you ever had the chance to watch a tv show called My Cat From Hell? In the states it is on the Animal Planet channel. You can find bits online. Jackson Galaxy is a cat behaviorist and host of the show. During the show he has informative ideas and tricks to help any situation. From an episode I learned that some cats are tree dwellers and some are bush dwellers. He showed that it helps when the tree dwellers has the high perch and the bush dweller has a bed, box, etc. to feel coxy in. From what I remember it also showed that engaging the cats together in play helps them realize the other cat is helping to capture the prey (toy). Also it is recommended to have one extra box for mulitple cats. So for 4 cats it is recommended to have 5 litter boxes. I wish you the best in getting your kitties to love each other as much as you do!

    P.S. I'll have a test of my own in a few days as my 4 month old will meet my brother-in-law's 1.5 year old.
