Hello everyone! I'm a very fresh cat owner and have adopted two siblings two weeks ago. They are 2,5 months old and I'm starting to realise that the male (Machka) won't let her sister (Katina) eat. Especially when I give them treats, or he finishes his meal too fast and than kicks her out of her bowl to eat hers. How can I teach my male cat to not to do that?
I just tried to stop him by hitting him gently with two fingers (like a paw basically) and he scratched harshly my hands. He also scratches his paws everywhere while her sister learnt not to do that, and he also won't let me touch him unless I catch him, than he's still as a statue until I release him.
Do you think this behavior is permanent or will he change once he's sterilised?
And this is their photo, the black one is Macka and the orange one Katina

Tomorrow I'll get another set of bowls and put them far away, but that also doesn't really work so good because I tried giving her food on human plate far from her brother but her brother came to her plate to stop her anyway, while he had his own food in the bowl, keeping them in separate rooms isn't good either because then they start crying and none eat ! I'll just make food available 24h so eventually when he's full she might finally eat. They're gonna be so obese so soon haha
