Hi everyone,
My name is Kristyn and I have recently brought home an 8 week old male kitten from the shelter that I volunteer at. I have two other cats at home, both are also male and their ages are 2 and 9. The oldest cat doesn't seem to be bothered by the kitten, but the 2 year old has a different story. He has been stalking the kitten and watching its every move. At first, we introduced the cats to the kitten and everything seemed fine, so we thought it would be alright if we just let them stay with each other over night snd when we are at aork during the day. Yesterday, the 2 year old cat bit the kitten in the neck and since then, we have been really worried that the cats will never get along and that he was going to hurt the baby. I have read in some articles that this would be considered mating if it were between a male and a female, but they are both males. What should we do???We have been trying to pay much more attention to the 2 year old, but we also play with the kitten as well. Lastnight, my fiance stayed in the guest room with the kitten but he kept him up all night because he was meowing. We really need help here! Thanks for your time.
