Hi, I have a male who turned a year at the end of last month and a female who is now around 4.5 months. When I first got her, I did the slow introduction thing and everything was fine up until a few weeks ago and now my male growls and hisses at her whenever he comes back in.
They used to play together and seemed to be getting along. He has been neutered and I got him checked out for any health issues (just in case) but he is absolutely fine. The only thing I can think of is that she is starting to mature now so maybe her scent has changed in that way?
She will be getting spayed but my vet said they won't do it until she is at least five months (?) and she also needs to weigh a bit more (she was the runt of the litter).
Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions as to what might be going on here? They used to get along really well and this change seems like it has come out of the blue.
