two males and a baby

Question
I have two brothers that are about 5 months old. A couple days ago i found a stray female that can't be more than 8 weeks. She's little. I dont know what to do. I don't want them to eat her. would it help if i got the males fixed? I want to keep her but they don't even get along. the boys stay away from her but hiss and growl at her. will they eventually learn to get along?

Answer
Hi Ashley,

They won't eat the female. They need to get adjusted to each other. Give them a little time. Definitely get the males fixed or you will have major fighting problems with them later. It takes about 2 weeks for all to settle down. Make sure you take both of your boys at together to get fixed. This prevents any fighting between them. Good luck.

Ciao, Karen
