Keep them seperated at first but let them be able to smell each other, just take it slowly and have patience. I introduced the puppy to 2 house cats the pup just wanted to play with the cats but the cats didn't understand at first.
Good luck and remember patience

Took my cats a few weeks to realise the dog wasn't going to hurt them. Just make sure the kitten has somewhere to escape to or put a babygate up.

Strange as this sounds they may well pack up together. a lass i know has two staffs and two staffy crosses plus a cat. a few days under the same roof and all was harmony. yet the two crosses will chase any other cat but nerver the one they live with

Re: Cats and staffys
I used to have a cat with 4 dogs 2 of which were staffies, but the cat
came first. Both Staffies loved the cat, but the cat beat them up
regularly by boxing their ears and refused to have anything to do with them. Staffies never retaliated and Cat ruled the Roost

Re: Cats and staffys
Just remember that Lola is the resident and the kitten an intruder, take things slowly and carefully and I'm sure it'll be fine
