My new male kitten is almost 12 weeks, we got him when he was 6 wks from my uncle's outdoor cat. I have a male 16 yrs, a female, 16 yrs, and a female 3 yrs.
The kitten is constantly jumping on the male cat. No matter how much Boris hisses, growls, swats the kitten won't let him be. The female cats just have to hiss and the kitten leaves them alone.
It hasn't helped that Boris caught the coccidia the kitten had and has been unwell. I don't know if that is why the kitten attacks him or if it is because he is a male.
I don't know what to do, I tried to let them work it out, I have tried putting the kitten in another room when he attacks and won't stop. I can't leave them all out when I leave the house for fear that he will harass my older cat.
Any suggestions?
