We rescued a mother and daughter cat from the RSPCA last year. The mother (Summer) is now 2 years old and the daughter (Honey) is just 1 year old. Summer is a ginger female and honey a mixed female (ginger and white) - both have been spayed. Summer has a defect in one of her eyes, and Honey is very small (was the runt of the litter) and has some physical deformities like she can’t retract her claws and she has 4 toes on her front paws and 6 on her back paws. They have been fine while being indoor cats for the last 6 months (since we got them) playing together fine etc. They have both been very loving cats having lots of strokes and cuddles and sleeping with us. Now the weather is better we wanted them to go outside and have fun. Since letting them go outside Summer has started hissing and swatting Honey when she sees her and Honey is very nervous, stressed and won’t eat properly.
Is there any advice on how we can get Summer to stop her aggressive behaviour towards Honey so they can be a mother and daughter team ?
All suggestions and advice welcome
Many thanks
