Cats don't have to be this way. Here is a little checklist of why they may be peeing in places other than their box(es). It sounds like a lack of enough cat boxes, or possibly are stressed. You can try this for stress, or try getting them each a box, and have each in their own space.
Bless you for caring for a special needs cat. My kitty is a rescue, he's quite expensive (feline IBD), but his condition is stable, and I love him.
You might try a Feliway diffuser for your kitty's anxiety.
Thanks for responding. Good to know the shelter is no-kill, that is important. A few things I would recommend but most of them do cost money so its up to you if you want to give them a shot.

good luck, whatever your decision. :)
EDIT: saw your post about the feliway above, sorry for repeating. responded to your post before reading other replies.
My vet recommended this to help un-stress my cats and calm them down. It seems to really be helping!
Hard to say but this stuff is at least partially responsible for keep the peace amongst the feline occupants of my place.
It sounds like you are mostly on the right track with keeping it slow and using positive reinforcement. I would also recommend building her a cat superhighway to help her explore and get to know August from a safe distance and possibly getting a Feliway diffuser to calm her down.
If she played well with him under the door, have you tried playing with her while he in sight, maybe in the distance in another room? You could also try stacking two baby gates in the office doorway between where Pepper lives and the rest of the house. That way she could see August and get used to his presence, but she would be prevented from attacking him.
There are numerous medical reasons your kitten could be peeing. I have three cats, and one of them we got when he was just a few weeks old, having been weaned just a little too early. He had a severe peeing problem, where he would pee on furniture, on rugs, piles of clothing, plastic bags, and basically anything that he could pee on.
We had him tested for diabetes, bladder infection, and even brain disorder. Nothing was wrong, it was a behavioral thing. Because cats don't understand negative reinforcement (punishment basically) chiding him for peeing only made him skittish around us.
We found one thing that finally worked, and it has worked ever since.
The Feliway Diffuser ( http://www.amazon.com/Comfort-Zone-Feliway-Diffuser-Cats/dp/B003E6WSHK/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1321539101&sr=8-5 ). We have the diffuser (never tried the spray). It took about a month for it to help completely, but he has gone years now without peeing on anything other than the litter box. The key is to keep the diffuser full, keep the litter boxes as clean as possible and as smell free as possible (corn based litter with de-odorizer powder works best for us). It will take a little bit for it to take effect, to be patient, but its a better alternative than giving up the poor thing to someone else who might not have the patience to deal with the problem.
Basically its just the pheromone that cats give off in their scent glands that allows them to feel calm and comfortable. I recommend it to everyone who has issues with cat peeing that's not related to a health condition.

This is it! I read back through your post and just for the record, I don't think this is totally abnormal. She's probably had some rough times so the adjustment might be harder and might take longer. Good luck!
