That is great how you used Mr. Galaxy's advice and training methods. You two are doing a great job with your daughters. And that close up of Miso is just precious!
We integrated Ellie, my son’s cat, with Cleo and Luna, our two, when they moved in a year ago. What worked for us was alternating who got the run of the house at night while we slept, with Ellie getting more time so she could make some of the house her own without anycat giving her grief. Ironically the smallest of the bunch, Cleo, is the alpha cat and the hisser. It took about six weeks before they could be left alone together, and about 3 months before they are co-existing and even play together now. When my son does move out again, we’re pretty sure Ellie will be very happy to run the household, but also miss her playmates when he’s at work.
