This is cute but it's worth noting that many adult cats have a negative reaction to kittens and may hurt them.

One of my cats likes to do this to another but it's actually a prelude to biting

True, they should be introduced very carefully, preferably keeping the kitten separated in one room and starting by letting them sniff under the door, using the same brush on both to exchange hairs/scent, and eventually letting them meet under careful adult human supervision.

Clearly this was a very successful adoption. They're a Family now.
