i have five cats and the middle one is always picking on the others, she chases them and sometimes is quite nasty..the others get along just fine..i was wondering if they are just acting like sisters and fighting or maybe something more..anyone know??

If there is blood, you need to seperate and reintroduce slowly.

If there is no blood, there are some other things you can try. I'm assuming this is the way she is normally - if not, get her to the vet immediately, it's a sign something is wrong.

Things you can try: a feliway plugin, time outs

Things to look at: what do you mean by nasty - hissing, growling, a smack on the head, biting? How many litter trays do you have? How many rooms in your home do the cats have access to?

she doesnt bring blood to any of them, but lots of fur flying, she seems to wait for them to go into the garden, hides and then jumps at them..mostly the oldest cat gets it the worst..ive tried keeping them apart as much as possible but they have the full run of the house so sometimes its hard..they all get the same attention so i cant see her been jealous..im just confused
