If you have to introduce a second cat into your house, your first kitty cat
may have trouble getting used to the new intruder. If you put a little
perfume on both cats, so that they will smell the same as each other, they
will trust each other more. - From the Cats section of Oddities & Wonders
(www.oddwonder.com), where you'll find much more such information. It's all
free, of course, no membership fee or anything like that.

Either that, or they'll rape the sh.t out of each other, crazed as they
would be with the smell of perfume.

Yeah! I like the bits that describe the best ways of burying cats alive!
(You stun them, first, by closing their heads in the fridge door!). I love
that site!

Instead of perfume, try a little dab of vanilla on each cat. I believe
there should be a slow, careful introduction period when a new cat is
brought into the home; but there are a number of occasions when it helps to
use a little vanilla (for example, some cats "reject" even a well-known
feline companion after a visit to the vet -- probably from scents that have
been transferred during the visit).

Exactly, putting perfume on a cat sounds like torture. You can't smell a cat
from 6', but others can from a lot further away. Imagine the scale of
overload!!!

I think I'd use catnip.....
