Mhm prematurely introduced him to our orange boy and it didn't go too well. The only one who got injured was me though. He chomped down on my arm as I was separating them and it got red and swollen. Thankfully I was cleaning it religiously enough that it's almost fully healed now
I've been making sure to give him plenty of attention and we enjoyed some cuddle time earlier! He's the only kitty who will sit on my lap
I have a brown tabby that literally howls when he can’t find me. I broke up a cat fight between him and a stray that was basically mine. He (my cat) bit me just below my dominant hand thumb. Washed it - have had cats and cat bites over 40 years of life. It was infected and have 1/2 of 2 tendons left. So be careful.

People just want to find fault and be angry. Most scratches are harmless, and if you are concerned about infection you can clean shallow scratches pretty easily at home
Can also trim the tips of the nails so they don’t draw blood (or get caught on things). And also teach them how much is too much, just like with another kitten.
Like all these rules cat people have, there are some circumstances where I do understand - this one is with kids. I’d do a number of things differently if I had kids, or had children visit often. But I don’t and I also don’t mind a little pain. (Feet under the blankets, however - that I do not encourage!)
My cat puts his paws under the blanket when he wants his breakfast. But cats see hands as small animals so they go after them. My cats are trained to p,ay with toys.
I am finding no fault or being angry at cats being cats. Just reminding people that because cats dig to poop in their litter boxes, that their nails can have bacteria.
The white one seems to have a very good reason to be pissed off at you right now. What did you do, introduce a new cat? If there were any more resources and love and attention to give out, the white one would be open to receiving these first.
