Excellent article on redirected aggression.

This is a detailed case study on two littermates who went from snuggling to serious fighting and how the owner worked out what was happening and how to deal with it. I thought it may help those whose furbabies are experiencing unexplained aggression towards each other. Of course, a vet check for both/all cats is the first step.

Redirected Aggression

Dr. Jean and Jackson Galaxy have such an excellent online library. It's usually the first place I go to look up an article about a cat problem.

(Oops....well, the second place I go when I'm logged on to TCS )

Thank you, Tania!

Wow, this goes to show why cats will never really be "domesticated".

I've contacted Jackson Galaxy several times about my neurotic cats (and neurotic owners ;-) ) and he has always been such a wealth of knowledge. I am moving in a few days and have a game plan to set up "base camp" for my kits so they experience a comfortable environment in their new settings
