I haven't posted in a while because everything has been going great. About two weeks ago, I went on vacation for 4 days leaving my "kids" behind. A neighbor looked in on them every day. When I came home, they seemed to be fine (no apparent resentment of me). However, I've been noticing that Parker (my almost 2 year old female) doesn't want to have anything to do with Fred (my 4 mth old male). They got along great for the 2 months prior to my vacation and played a lot with each other.
Now, Parker constantly hisses at Fred when he tries to play and has recently taken up screetching at him (an awful sound). I took her to the vet last Saturday because of this behavior and her general lack of interest in playing. The vet could find nothing wrong but some bacteria in her ear and a slight tempature. I've been treating her with ear drops, but she continues to hate Fred.
Fred has taken to leaping on Parker (flying squirrel like) as she walks past. I don't know if this is new agressive behavior by him that is causing her dislike. He's getting "fixed" in about a month or two. Will this help?
Is there anything I can do to make her like Fred again?
