having problems with our first cat. in the beginning he was very friendly. have had him approx 4 years now and has been nutered. we got a second female cat a couple years later also been fixed. the first cat (male) went a bit funny not so cuddly as he used to be but no obvious problems he still came home every night slept on the end of the bed and played with the other cat. over the last few months though we have been seeing less and less of him. and it seems when he does come in its only for food and then hes gone again. he dosnt appear to be getting any thinner so there is a possiblity he is being feed elsewhere. tonight for example would be the first time we have seen him in about a week and he appeared out of the blue. we though we would try keeping him inside for a while by closing the windows and locking them as he has a nack for opening them and letting himself out. he would have been inside for about 3 hours give or take and we where heading off to bed and went to approch him to move him into the kitchen where the beds are and he got aggressive. growling, spitting, and generally not happy when we where getting close to him. his ears never went down and he never took a swipe more noise then anything. i finally , reluctlanty opened the window he was sitting infront of and he sniffed and dissapeared into the night.. not too sure what we should do. there is the possiblity he will come back like he has in the past but is there anything we could do. have others had similar problems? any help/advise would be greatly appreciated...
