It’s been a week since we introduced 3 month old, Mabel, to our 1 year old, Smudge. We tried the slow introduction process, but within 48 hours they were chasing each other and playing. She still gets a little spooked and will hiss, and smudge has been really good about backing off and going to whine to get her to play. However, I’ve noticed the play is getting a bit more aggressive. They’re starting to pounce on each other, and obviously smudge is huge compared to her so he’s mostly on top. They’re having more play/fights that look like this, but she keeps going right back up to him so I’m getting confused on if she’s scared and hates it or if she’s just playing too? Is this just them establishing boundaries and do I intervene? Or should I only intervene if there’s fur flying? I’m not sure the best way to proceed, I just want them to be best friends soon lol

Edit: I want to emphasize that she is the only one making noise in these interactions and that she does seek him out to play still. He’s usually great at backing off when she hisses but not while he’s actively pinning her :(

Meet Jesse! (Right) 🥰 We met her today, but now we have to wait 4 weeks until she is coming home with us. 😭 I know this is gonna be so so hard for me, because last year when we were waiting to pick up are Little girl Dave (left) it was hard for me too
(Last picture is grown up Dave🤣)

This poor guy didn't know what was affecting his eyes. His name is Leo Aslanson

Peanut keeps a vigilant eye on all comings and goings! Especially those suspicious-looking dogs...

We’re bringing home this little girl in a couple of weeks. We currently have a 2.5 yo girl who’s playful and sweet & spicy. Please give me your tips for bringing home a 2nd one.

What are the brands you trust and feed, mine is picky! I’m currently feeding Royal Canin Kitten. Was checking out Orijen Kitten , Nulo , Instinct.. did i miss any or have any other favs for this breed?

I am stuck until she wakes up.
