I was having some issues with family that resulted in an emergency relocation of both myself and my cats to a friends place. I have one boy and one girl, presumably from the same litter (they were found in a dumpster inside a box together), but as soon as we let them out of their crates, the boy displayed immediate aggression towards his sister. His sister is hiding in a crevice under a dresser and her brother keeps walking over and sticking his head in to hiss and growl at her. She isn’t reacting at all as far as I can tell, aside from being very stressed, but he is actively trying to initiate a fight with her.
They have never had any problems before this except once when she smacked him too hard and he stayed mad at her for a couple days. I’m going through a lot right now and this behavior is just worrying me more. Is there anything I should do? Because I’m not sure whether I should wait it out and let him figure out it’s her, or if I should try to find a way to separate them so he leaves her alone while she adjusts, and so on. I’m very worried about them, I had no time to prepare them for the move and I don’t have a lot of familiar things here aside from my suitcase and backpack.
