yep my "companion" cat and my first cat don't figh but they ignore each other to the max. lol Some times they hiss but thats all. They really don't like each other.
I too was naïve enough to think that since my girl was shy around people I needed to solve that by getting her a companion. I wasn't aware growling was something cats did until making that mistake. It's especially weird because I don't think I ever heard her hiss. Her growl was very intimidating to me, but not to the kitten. Okay little man, I'm not sure she wants to play today.
I think she was mad about that decision for a long time.
