Hi there! I have a 9 month old kitten named Romeo who I’ve had since he was a baby. He is an extremely cuddly playful boy, so I decided to get him a playmate thinking he would love it. Boy do I feel stupid!! He absolutely hates our new Kitten Oscar, I think?? The kitten is 4 months old so they are not far off in age but I’m not sure if Romeo hates or loves him.
Here’s the thing Romeo our resident cat doesn’t growl or hiss or flatten his ears but he stalks Oscar. He doesn’t let his eyes off him for a second and pounces or runs at him every chance he gets, is this aggressive behaviour if there is no hissing? Oscar hates this play and gets very scared of romeo usually hiding under the bed or screaming when romeo catches him.
I’ve set up a screen door between the two and feed than all meals and treats through this. Romeo never gets angry but it’s like he’s preying on Oscar? I’m not sure if I should let them be together and work it out or leave the screen up. Or what I should do next to be honest.
I once got in the middle of one of Romeo’s stalking sessions with Oscar and he attacked my arm pretty bad, he’s never done anything like this before which is why I got the screen.Before he attcked my arm I thought he was just trying to play with Oscar, but ever since this time I’m scared that he’s really being aggressive. Does anyone know what I can do to help this situation or what is going on?
