Can my new stray cat share litter/food with my existing cat?

Question

I brought home a stray cat and I know her from it's birth so I know it for like 5 months. Now I brought her home and I have another cat (around a year old). I'm not able to take the stray cat to the vet for a few days for its' vaccinations. Would there be a problem? She looks and acts healthy but I don't want to risk my cats' health so I'm asking. I'm making sure that they are not scratching or harming each other but Would there be a problem if they used the same litter box?Or the same food bowl. Pet's info: Cat | Sokoke | Male | neutered | 9 months and 25 days old

Yes, I would keep both cats completely separated (separate litter, bowls...etc) until you have your new kitty checked out and treated for parasites as well as tested for Felv/FIV. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
