I need some suggestions....
I got a new kitten today, he's about 7 weeks old. Angel isn't too fond of him yet. She's hissing at him, but seems very interested in every move he makes. Anyway, I have a box with a sweatshirt in it for the kitten to sleep in. I put the box in the laundry room with food, water, and a litter box. Should I keep Angel in my room all night so that she won't go in the laundry room and pick a fight with him? Angel usually sleeps in my room all night, I just usually keep the door open.
I need to know how I can make this easier on Angel, if I can. I want her to know that she's not going to be loved any less and that she's still my baby girl. I've been trying to give her a lot of attention to show her that I still love her, but she just walks away and even growls sometimes. Will things get easier?
Also, I haven't had an actual kitten in a long time. Angel was already 6 months old when I got her. So I'm not quite sure what age the new kitten needs to go to the vet to get his first shots, and what shots he all needs.
One last thing, I need some help naming him. The only name I've come up with that I like is Murry, but I'm sure I like it enough.
Thanks in advance for the help!

P.S. I'll try to post some pictures of the new kitten in the next few days.
