Hello, I'm new to the boards, and I'm hoping someone can help me with my problem. I have a two year old neutered male and a 7 year old spayed female. The female has been moved around a lot, introduced to multiple cats (one of whom was very aggressive, and led to the separation of the two cats), and thus is prone to nervous issues. When we got the male kitten, he started to mount our girl, even though he was supposedly "too young" to be neutered. At this time, my female started pulling out the fur at the base of her tail. I assumed it was in response to his smell on her. Two years later, our male is STILL mounting her several times a day (he IS neutered), and she has continued to pull out the fur by the base of her tail. Is there anything I can do to stop his mounting (he hurts her by biting, and she hisses and yowls, but he is twice her size), and to stop her pulling out her fur??! My poor girl! Another issue is that he (at 2 YEARS OLD) still tries to nurse from her (she isn't his mother), and this has led to swollen red nipples on occasion. She eventually kicks him away, but I'd like to try to stop this behaviour as well.
Sorry for being long-winded! Any help would be very much appreciated.
