I have two cats, Lucy is the older and have had her almost two years, although she is almost five years old. Oscar is almost a year old. Lucy doesn't really get on with Oscar, however she will tolerate. They won't play together and Lucy will hiss at him if he tries to join in her games.
She will sit next to him sometimes and they are happy to sit in the same room as each other. Oscar doesn't really have a problem with Lucy and tries very hard to get close to her to play or cuddle.
Although sometimes Lucy will give Oscar a few licks on the head and ears, which Oscar seems to really like and will push his head towards her for more, but after a few licks she will hiss and sometimes swat at him.
Anyone have any idea why sometimes she grooms and then hisses? I find this very interesting and would love to hear some replies.
Thank you all
Clare
