So, I live on the third floor, in 6, and the people in 1, (two floors down and on the other side) have three cats. They had two when Zissou got here, and then got another around the time she started play-biting.
Is there any possible way that the cat downstairs is causing this? She's never seen it, but we share a stairwell (possibly the HVAC too, I'm not sure). I thought it was just play-biting, as she never tries to hurt, but sometimes it seems out of nowhere. Although she loves shoes. She sits by the door with the shoes like theyre her kingdom.
Can she smell this kitty downstairs, and is it making her have "redirected aggression" towards me? Is it possible that she can smell it? Theres absolutely no way to see it, but if we both had our windows open she might be able to hear it?
What do I do about it? Should I introduce them? It would be possible, I know the neighbors well enough for that.
