It's very sad but sometimes cats just don't get on. They are solitary beast by nature and as they mature their personalities comes out. It may just be that she would be much happier as an only cat. It's is a heartbreaking decision for a loving owner to have to make but if the cats genuinely don't get on, it is kinder for the cat for her to be rehomed. Living with inter-cat agression causes stress all round.
Hope you can find her somewhere lovely.

It's possible. I've asked for as much detail as possible and a picture, so we'll see what happens.

Sounds like my Macey  :tired: She has not patience with any of my others and really dont like the kids, although she is fine with adults in the house  :Crazy:

She has been this way since Leo fell on her when he was a baby, and since that she will just last out and take everything as a threat  :-:

Maybe this cat needs her own personal space  :shy:

*coughs* Was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. But I think it's more likely they want rid and won't be prepared to fork out for Feliway etc.

do they want suggestions or do they want rid?

Also if they are indoor would it be possible for them to have their own territory's so to speak?  :hug:

Oops!  :see: :heeee heeee:

Weird to say the least....I can imagine her to be funny after her op and in her recoup, but a year is a long time....Have they tried Feliway etc? What about Zylkene, something along them lines!  ;)

Been sent a message asking if I can help rehome a 3 year old female cat who was spayed a year ago and has been outrightly aggressive with the two males who share her home ever since she came home after the op.

Any ideas as to how this can be resolved without rehoming or does it seem likely to be the only option?

Underlined. ;)
