my girlfriend had to introduce two cats to each other recently.

same sort of situation. one was aggresive and hated other cats, the other was timid and couldn't care less.

we tried tying them up in opposite corners of the room so they could scope each other out, but that just further aggravated the aggresive cat.

then one day, the door that was seperating them accidentally got left open while no-one was home, and the two had a battle royale. my girlfriend came home to find lumps of hair everywhere, but when she went into the TV room, the two cats were asleep in the same chair.

now, they're the best of pals. they still play-fight every once in a while, but they're buddies and they don't hurt each other when they do it.

it's probably not the same for dogs, but i just thought i'd share what happened in my experience.

i have 2 dogs, but couldn't offer any advice. we had Holly for a year before we got Maggie, and Maggie was just a puppy when we brought her home (you could fit her in the palm of your hand). Holly took one sniff and growled. didn't like her from the second she got in the house, but they never fought or anything of that nature because they were both too young at the time.
