How do I introduce a 6 month old kitten to a 7 year old cat and a 14 year old cat?

I am moving from California to Minnesota and bringing a new cat with me. I will be moving in with my parents and they have two cats that are 7 and 14. Those two cats don't get along so great. I am wondering how I should go about introducing my 6 month old kitten to these two. The two older kitties are both female and spayed, the kitten has not been neutered yet and is a boy, obv. Help?
Problem with the Neuter Now solution- I don't have enough money to make the move and neuter the little kitty.
Also the Vet said I should wait until 6 months, and he's not entirely six months yet (born in either March or April, early in either month but I'm not entirely sure on that) We've just been guessing at age pretty much. He was a stray that the animal shelter picked up.

Also he has not started spraying yet.

First - NEUTER NOW, before you go. A male 6 month old cat is LONG OVERDUE for neutering (it can be done as early as 2 pounds of body weight). If you don't neuter him, he will soon start spraying urine in the house to mark his territory. Once this starts, nothing will stop it, and in "a new cat in the house" scenario, an un-neutered male will start marking territory immediately!!!
Get Feliway diffusers to take with you. They are oderless, last 30 days, & plug into the wall sockets. Each covers 600 sq. feet and marks the house with calming scent - the same scent kitty uses when rubbing stuff, saying "this is mine".
When you get there, your cat needs to stay in just your bedroom for up to 2 weeks. This will give your cat time to adjust, as well as the older cats. They'll be able to sniff out the interloper quickly, but won't be able to directly interact for a while, which helps relations while the Feliway works. Rub each cat with a towel and put that towel near food bowls (the 2 cats towel in your room and your cat's towel near the resident cats' dishes). This also introduces new scent without being direct contact. Eventually they will do the paw thing under the door, and no amount of indirect scent will stop the hissing/growling/etc that occurs when direct contact eventually happens. This goes away over time. Are the older cats (or yours) declawed? If the answer is yes, no harm can come from them getting together for a spat, but if the answer is no, you'll have to watch them - cats instinctively go for each others' face and eyes when they claw, and if they happen to get an eye, badness can happen from there.
Good luck!

Angela gave you good advice. Be patient. This may take 6 months especially if the two older ones don't even like each other. Expect them to get nastier with each other for a while too until the new pecking order is worked out. Definately get two boxes for the little guy. Boy kitties don't usually like to use the same box for pee and poo. Take covers off all boxes for a while as naughty kittens like to pounce on older dignified cats when they are exiting the box. You can make little "room divider screens" our of carboard boxes for privacy and to help keep the litter in the right place until they are ready to have the box covers back. Good luck and everything should go well if given enough time.

Try this: take your new kitty and hold her. Then go up to your two cats and show her to them. If they hiss a spit, just take her away. Try to let them know that this new kitty is friendly.
