ARGHHHHHH!!!
I am at my wits end! I have 2 male cats just turning a year old. They were fixed back on June 2nd. Up until they got fixed they got along fine.. now the bigger guy wants to kill the lil fellow. I cant turn my back for a moment and the big guy is at him. I talked to my vet and she said to put them outside but yikes... where I live I am so close to a busy road I dont want to take that chance. To seperate them means I have one door in my house and thats the bathroom. To put the big cat in there is a nightmare he literally shreds the place. It takes me hours to clean it up and I really dont think its fair to lock the lil one up when he is not the instigator in all this. I am to the point where I think I will have to give the big one away. That breaks my heart because he is such a sweet & playful guy ( when the other one isnt around anyways,lol). I have tried putting vanilla on both of them... someone told me that if they smelled the same they shouldnt fight but that didnt work. They did smell really nice tho, lol.
So my question today is has anyone out there been thru this ... and is there hope?
Thanks!!!
