Hi Meffy -- You're doing the right thing by keeping the two cats separated at first. Introducing them very slowly is the key, and you need to be patient. It may take as much as several weeks for your adult cat to show signs of acceptance. Meanwhile, maybe these two articles will help:

Congratulations on saving the kitten's life, and best of luck getting your two cats comfortable with each other. :-)
