I've posted several questions here about Asher and the new kitten, Jack. I don't know much about cat intros as this is my first time. I know cats play with each other but can some one please tell me if this is play or more severe?
Asher and Jack will, what I consider, "play" with each other by biting and chasing each other "playfully." Asher is good for a while but he seems to get frustrated by Jack's constant attempts to "play" and he ends up laying on the floor holding Jack in front of him and kicking him with his back feet like he is trying to kill prey. Jack obviously doesn't like this and proceeds to cry out. Asher doesn't give up until I make him (with water or coins in a can). This behavior worries me. Is Asher trying to hurt the kitten or is this some kind of cat play? I swear, these cats are driving me crazy!
