I have two cats that I've had for 9 years - brother and Sister (Pebbles and Bam-Bam); I've had them since babies and all of a sudden (in November) they started fighting horribly....I have to keep them separated now and I don't know if there is anything I can do to fix this problem. They are both spayed and neutered, I've tried the plug in pharomones (sp?), I've tried the 'Calming cat bath wipes' I've tried the calming drops you put in their water/food; nothing works.
I think that Bam-Bam was getting too aggressive (about 6 months ago, he started aggressively mounting her and continued to do that) and I think Pebbles got fed up, now she hisses if she sees him and that eggs Bam-Bam on, so he taunts her....if they get near each other w/out being separated by a crate or anything; I tried putting them both in crates side by side to see if they could get used to each other again and they hiss-growl, etc- if one accidentally gets out to where the other is, they go to tear each other up; I don't know what to do; I've had to keep one locked up in a room and switch them out every few hours...it gets old real fast. Plus, I feel horrible keeping them locked up in a room even if I do take turns......
PLease if someone knows what I can do - I would really appreciate it!
