NEVER replace a cat because of its personality. Some cats naturally prefer to be on their own. It is normal for an established cat not to be immediately friendly with a new cat. Providing time, space, and a slow introduction between the two cats is the best way to help them get along.
You should provide all the cats with plenty of space. Fun, entertaining things to do. Cat trees, or if they are too expensive, make one of your own using boxes or other stackable items, windows, etc. Just putting some bins or boxes of varying heights up against a window helps.
Never put them in one room together because that will make them feel crowded and forced together and they will fight more. In fact, it is always advised to keep them in separate rooms for the first week or so, with the only contact being swapping scents and short, supervised introductions. Also, there are some remedies that are harmless and made all naturally like Bach remedies. We buy the Holly remedy and it works. Also there are calming pheromones like Feliway and collars with calming stuff on them. Look them up. :)

Why do dogs and cats dislike each other?
It has been my life's experience that cats and dogs typically adore each other. On occasion some dogs and some cats may feel threatened by the other, but I have found this to be rare. However, I would say that cats are often more aggressive to dogs than the other way around -- much the same as how cats are aggressive to new cats, and how dogs are usually friendly and curious to other dogs. Cats may be offended by friendly curiosity from dogs, and dogs may be offended by aggressive cats. Dogs grow to dislike cats primarily due to a misunderstanding. A dog communicates friendliness and peaceful intent by wagging it's tail; Cats wag their tails rapidly when angry or aggressive. A cat will thus perceive a friendly or curious dog approaching it as a large, frightening, angry, and dangerous animal. The cat will thus defend itself by clawing at the dog, usually at the nose when the dog sniffs the cat, and then attempt to escape. Most adult dogs have thus learned to associate cats with painful scratches across the nose. I also find it most common to find very large dogs get along with cats better than small dogs. Though in true cat form, I'm sure they don't really "get along" with anyone as much as they "tolerate" them -- especially humans. p.s. from a different person : i find that the dog tries to be friendly and tries to play with them but the cat rejects the dog (that is my findings but many people disagree)
