I have 2 cats and even thought they are not best buds, they get along fine.
Almost every night they will both do their laps running in our apartment and tussle. I don't think it's actual fighting as it happens almost every day. My older cat (B) would be silent but my younger cat (N) would sometimes hiss or yowl dramatically. The reason I don't believe it's real fight because N loves to run up to sniff and greet B, and often prefers to hang out in B's frequent spots. B seems like the tolerant older bro with the annoying little bro N.
However sometimes I don't understand their play fighting. I used to think B was bullying N because N would hiss and meow/yowl loudly, but since I have often caught N instigating the fight by smacking B. Very common is N likes to hide under the coffee table or bed when this happens, and B remains outside. Once B is bored of it and turns to leave, N will come out and give his butt a smack. But sometimes he will do it with a little hiss?
B never hissed at N, and they can share food and space in close proximity no problem. They're not cuddling nor grooming each other but I don't think there is bad blood between them. Attached is a picture from earlier tonight.
