I've had my cat literally since birth. Depp is a year and a half old, de-sexed, male cat. He's gladly been an indoor/outdoor cat since birth. Recently though a small orange Tom kitten has been following him around. Depp does nothing. The kitten follows him around dilligently, waits for him on my porch when he's inside, and plays with him when he is out.
The only reason I find this odd is because cat's (atleast what I have been told,) are solitary, territorial mammels, so why doesn't my cat show aggression toward the other?
The best theory I've heard so far is that for some reason, my male cat, feels the need to be maternal toward this kitten.
My boyfriend, on the other hand, is trying to convince me that my cat has homosexual tendancies (I would love him anyways.)
any thoughts?
Thanks so much for your time!
