Hi all,
we have just gotten a second cat about 6 weeks ago as everyone was telling us that we shouldn't leave our other cat alone. Anyway, since we have had him, he has been fighting Kitty (female) all the time. We first thought it was because he was not done yet, so we have had him done, but he is still beating her up in a way! He is one month older than her and used to be an outdoor cat, but the owners said that he prefered the indoors ad loves other cats that was why we chose him.
Micio (male, the new one) has always been beating Kitty up, even to the point where she has "accidents". When we are at home, we seperate them once they fight, but when we are at work is when we can not do anything! We have also seperated them after the big fights, I kow this was not a wise move, but we had no choice, Kitty was so scared and also "crying" fter having the big fights and the "accidents" (both number 1 and 2). We had to get her a new litter boy with a roof on it, so that she would use it again as Micio always attacked her while she was digging. Due to this, she was using the sink to do her "business", but since we have this litter box, she has been using it all the time.
We are at a loss, and we do not want to get rid of Micio as we love him, but at the rate this is going, I am relly considering it.
Please... any advice, anything whatsoever would be greatfully appreciated. I am really at a loss now!
Please help us be a happy family!
