I adopted the third cat 4 months ago, and the new cat is just relentlessly badgering the resident male. He and my female do ok, they chase each other and he seems to listen if she hisses to stop. But he picks on my very mellow docile boy. They are all about 4 year old-I have done everything -prolonged play time, giving treats when they do sit together, I got them on the Jackson Galaxy "bully" treatments, and the Peace maker formula. I did a careful meet and greet, took time and started just through the door etc. It's reached a tipping point where he clamps his jaw on his back and hair is flying. I really see my mellow boy getting bullied and it's sad. He now hides in two corners if the new cat is around. I have taken to keeping them separate. But new cat has so much energy I am wondering if he would like going outside and it might help with his energy levels. They are all indoor now. I don't approve of allowing cats out but is that a better solution than having to consider surrender?
