Well, we brought Buster home and introduced him to Rufus. They laid into each other for about five long minutes before devolving into a game of tag. Rufus came out the top dog, although he doesn't realize that it's now unnecessary to remind Buster of the fact every ten minutes.
At one point today, I tried to teach Rufus to share his toys. I let him pick the one he wanted, then gave Buster the other one. Rufus would abandon his toy to steal Buster's, so I'd just pick it up where he dropped it and hand it to lil' Buster after he absconded with the other toy. This merry-go-round continued for quite some time...
They still argue, mostly because Rufus is rather dense when it comes to the "okay, you win" part. The rest of the time they get along really well, though; and the cats are quite happy now that Rufus has someone his own size to chase around.
