I have two cats, Shadow (10 years old) and Sylvester (5 years old). Shadow has a gum disease and I took her to the vet last Friday, she had to have 6 teeth pulled. I brought her in the house and put her down on the ground and Sylvester attacked her, ripped off her bandage, her collar and had tuffs of her fur under his claws. Everytime I am not supervising them Sylvester attacks her. Shadow is still on antibiotics and pain meds, she urinates or has diareaha everytime he attacks her.
The cats have lived together for 5 years with mild fighting, more playful type of fighting. I have to now put him in a cage when I am not at home and feel awful. The cage is really big and has water, litter, food, beds and toys but it still is hard. I am trying Phermone collars and diffusers. The vet has prescribed anxiety pills for Sylvester. Sylvester can be aggressive, so giving him to someone else isn't really an option. Any advice that could get them back to being able to be together would greatly help me.
