My almost 2 yr old neutered cat (Rusty) and 7 month
old un neutered kitten (Mo Mo) have been fighting
Lately. Sometimes It seems to be just play but the
Other night I found a sore on the back of my kitten's
Ear. I have been keeping If clean so It has healed well.
Throughout the day they seem to like each other. No hissing
Or batting at each other. I just don't understand how or
Why my older cat could have hurt him? Does anyone here
Have any theories?

Get the 7 month old neutered - he has reached sexual maturity and is becoming more aggressive, dominant, and territorial as a result. He is more than old enough to be neutered, the sooner you get it done the better! Be thankful that he hasn't started spraying yet. Hopefully harmony will be restored to your household soon.

Second the neutering. After that try properly reintroducing them (the kitten will smell like vet's office anyways) and see if it helps. There's tips for introducing cats on the forum, do a quick search.
