My male white cat who we named Spot, because of a very small black spot he has on his forehead, has turned violently jealous over our new male Siamese cat we named C.M. Punk (from the W.W.E. wrestler 
). I find this very surprising because Spot is usually a very passive cat and he is known to be the one who usually just sits around and don't mind when we have new pets in the house. This time however, he continues to bully C.M. Punk and I'm starting to feel very bad about it. WE have been giving more attention to C.M. Punk because he is the new cat and is still adjusting to his new home. It took him 3 days to start eating and a month to get to walk around inside our house and not be scared of people here. Now, after this bullying, he is back to hiding and is constantly scared of anybody getting near him. I am not sure what to do about this and I am hoping I could get good advise from cat or pet owners and experts here.

I see this all the time, are both fixed? If not this could be the issue. But you need to slowly add a new member to the family. You can't put them in a room, and expect them to get along, especially if Spot has been the only animal in the house. Dont let the new cat near Spots places (beds, toys etc), even after a year I still buy my 3 cats, seperate toys as they fight like children. When you brought him home you should give him a play time, and then give him his own spot. My cat when I introduced them to my two already, they came out and played, but then went back in a different room.

I went through the same thing when I got my 2 cats. They are brothers but Alphy is super jealous of Bubba who is the youngest. Alphy has to be with me constantly and seldom leaves my side. When Alphy tries to get some patting time in Alphy doesn't want him to and goes after him. The best thing you can do for a cat who is in hiding is leave him alone he will come out when it's time. My Alphy spent the first month I had him under my bed! I was worried that he would get dehydrated so I put bowls of water under my bed with some food too. Eventually he came out and made me so happy.
