I know I haven't posted in a while. Been so busy with holidays, family and new creative pursuits. And it's winter so we get the break of having to TnR. Our colony is down to two- yes two fixed cats (praise Bast).
My issue is with a boy we adopted a few months ago. He's reaching one year (in May) and is already trying to mount (not hump just mount to show dominance of all our other cats. He also lays out in a way to block the entryway into the kitchen and litter box area. We have multiple boxes but the favored ones are in our living room and he blocks those.
Is this normal terrible two's behavior or something that if ignored will grow into further problematic cat behavior. Yes, he was neutered at the appropriate age/ weight. He shares the house with his brother (who is his equal) and 6 other cats who are older- some bigger/ some lighter weight.
