Advice sought please - cat introductions

Hello All
We have a female cat (Tails) who is approx 11 years old. She is very shy
cat, but very terratorial. Any cat that enters our garden is soon seen off
by her.
My next door neigbour also has a cat (Stan). He is a very loving cat who is
often out and about and is very friendly towards us (approx 1 year old).
Stan is going to be rehomed as his owner isn't around very much and needs to
find a home where Stan has more company. My partner and I would like to
adopt Stan,but want to know the best way to introduce Tails and Stan
together to see if they can become 'friends'.
Tails hasn't always been on her own. When I got her she had her son Caffery
with her. (Unfortunalty some ******* put a shot gun pellet into him several
years ago and he didn't survive).
Does anyone have any suggestions on how we go about this or whether we are
likely to be successful.
Regards
Jane and Richard
