Cats are social animals and I believe they live more complete lives when another cat is in the home. Even if they dislike each other, I believe the life of each will be enriched by the other's presence. Have you ever introduced cats before? It's best to give each their own territory to start with, allow them to get to know each other, under a door if possible, before slowly allowing more interaction.
