how to introduce two male cats to each other? (one fixed, one not)?

[Alicia]

so our original cat is a male, about a year and a half old, and he is fixed. he was a stray and he hung around our house a lot and was very friendly so we took him in about a year ago. ever since then we've been wanting to get him a friend to keep him busy throughout the day when no one is home. so recently there has been another cat hanging around outside the house and is EXTREMELY friendly and not shy at all. but is most definitely homeless. anyways, we are thinking of taking him in, but he looks like he is not neutered. he looks to be about 6-8 months old. so how do you introduce two male cats, one neutered, one not? also, would they spray?
thanks

The spraying could start so your best bet is to call your vet and tell him the situation. Ask if you can bring the new cat to be neutered as soon as you catch him. You may need to keep him overnight with a boarding charge. ( not expensive) but it is well worth it.
When introducing a new cat, let them see each other. Hold one, have someone hold the other. Pet both of them to transfer scents. Let them be in the same room only if you are present. I have a feeling that these two will get along just fine as both have good temperaments.
