6 year old tabby female got a new, 6 week old stray male

The tabby keeps hissing at us and the kitten. How long before the kitten can be out by her? The kitten cries a lot. Is this normal? More like a screech.

The screeching concerns me. I would take the kitten to a vet to be sure he's OK. I would also keep the kitten in his own room and not let the two cats meet until you've done some scent swapping. Slow and steady is the best method for introductions. It can take a few days or a few weeks, depending on the cats.
