I wasnt sure if I should put this here or in grooming.. but here is a shot.
Yesterday we took my large Cat Six to the groomers for the first time for a Lions Cut. He had really long hair that had out of control mats. I expected that my other cat Sammy would be a little thrown back being left at home but I never expected this.
When we got in the house Sammy followed him up the stairs and immediately made horrible noises and then jumped Six. We of course panicked and pulled the two apart. Six even though twice his size is a giant baby, and was already traumatized enough by the car ride and groomers.
They stayed apart for most of the day, and when they were not hissed, screamed and growled at one another.
Whats funny is that they both slept on the bed last night together, but as soon as morning came and Sammy saw Six in the light he went back to thinking he was a stranger.
So it seems at first it was perhaps the clean scent of Six that threw him off, and now the look.
Anyway I can help to remind Sammy that Six is still his long time friend, as he has spent all morning now hiding in the bedroom away from the supposed stranger.
I dont want another fight
