Title: Help please.....WW3 has broken out
Post by: siou2 on December 06, 2011, 15:24:59 PM
Hi,

need some advice please, Marvin is my new boy been with me about a month, Taz has been with me since he was a kitten he's 2 1/2 now.  Both neutered but Marvin only bout 2 weeks ago.  Up until last night they were doing the stilty, getting to know you walk round each other thing.  Now Taz is looking for Marvin to pick a fight, puffy tails, arched backs, the lot, keep having to separate or kick them both out. 

Think theyv'e fell out 'cause of me, as Marvin is the clingiest cat i've ever known,  like my 3rd lung, his nickname is velcro.  Taz was on my knee last night 1st time in ages since Marv turned up & they started fighting last night. 

Trouble is Taz went out last night & Marv was still wound up so tried to take it out on my old girl Tasha, she's about 16, so he went out too.  Normally Tasha is left alone as she hates all other cats & will punch them if they get too close.  So long as she's left alone Tasha's quite happy.  So anyway suggestions please for my 2 boys  :thanks:

Not sure what to advise except to reintroduce.

The male hormones can take about 6 weeks to die down so Marvin probabley smells like a full tom to Taz still.

Sounds like a lot of jealousy involved.

Felliway and Zyklene might help x
