Well, I'm sure you all know but I'll review anyway!
I have 2 cats, Kitty (10 years old) and Thomas (1 year old). They are both neutered/spayed. Kitty does not have her front claws, but Thomas has all his claws.
Thomas has been trying to exert dominance over Kitty since I got him (it used to be funny to watch my Kitty at 12 lbs fleeing from 2 lbs Thomas). It's not funny anymore.
He attacks her, keeps her off my bed (but he doesn't stay there, just chases her away), sprays in the litterbox (it's covered, but I don't appreciate the pee running down the insides), and tries to bite her neck.
I know they like each other (they groom each other occasionally)....but I just want peace in my house.
Is there some way I can let Thomas know he is NOT top cat? I've tried putting him in the bathroom alone when he attacks Kitty. I've tried squirting him with water when he attacks (unfortunatly I get Kitty too and she's like..."WHAT?? I get attacked and sprayed with water?"), I make a loud noise (shout, clap hands) which scares Kitty to death and Thomas doesn't even notice. So does anyone have any other suggestions?
I've tried feliway, but not the diffusers, just the spray (Kitty hated it).
