Hello!
So I got my kitten (Casper) about 5 months ago, and the vet pegged him at about 8 weeks, making him around 7 months old now. Him and my elderly cat (Charlie) have been slowly but surely getting along. We’ve been using feliway friends, and their relationship has even progressed to allogrooming (Charlie grooming Casper only, not the other way around). There’s nothing wrong with the diffuser, and nothing else in his behaviour has changed, but Charlie has started to get increasingly upset and vocal around him, and the allogrooming has stopped. There’s no indication of fighting or violence, and Casper’s acting like his normal, playful self. Charlie’s also not showing any signs of being ill. Now we are getting Casper neutered on Tuesday, but I’m just wondering what the cause of her sudden behaviour change could be, and if him reaching sexual maturity could be a factor?
Thanks so much!
