Hello, I’m new here and was hoping to get some insight on my cats.
I have three cats in total but the issue is between two cats in particular. My female cat I’ve had since she was a kitten- she’s now around four. And my male cat I got when he was one, I’ve had him around two and a half years. The male is neutered, the female is not spayed.
A few weeks ago my female cat suddenly started attacking the male. We thought it was just a little spat but it’s continued for weeks now. She stalks and attacks him and guards the food and the litter boxes. She doesn’t show this same aggression towards the other female cat, only the male. We didn’t realize the litter box was an issue until we noticed him squatting and going in a hidden area. My husband tried to carry him down to the litter box and the female cat flew down the stairs, tail and back all fluffed up and tried to attack him. So we are guessing he doesn’t even try to use the litter box now because she attacks him. We have also had to start feeding him in a separate location with his own bowl. We have four litter boxes downstairs. One for each cat plus an extra. The fighting has gotten out of control and my husband is at the point he wants one gone to stop the fighting. Why the sudden aggression?? Especially only towards one cat and not the other?? Is there anything I can do or rehoming one really the only option..? Any advice is appreciated!!
