I am current on my way to the emergency vet. My normally docile and friendly stud boy, whom normally gets along with everyone, snapped and attacked not one but two of the other cats. I don't know what the hell is going on. I made an appointment last week to have him neutered on the 28th.
A few weeks ago he started not getting along with his replacement, hissing/fighting ect, I figured that was normal as the new boy has started to mature, so he now sees him as competition. I have kept them completely separate.
He has his own separate space, but is allowed out in our house with the other cats with stud pants, as he is a heavy sprayer. I have never had an issue, the girls would give him the odd swat when he was getting to fresh, but they always got along.
I was cleaning out his pen today when I heard a fight break out. I ran to find him attacking one of my neutered males that he has always gotten along with and used to be his snuggle buddy. I clapped really loud and yelled which made him stop, but before I could grab him he raced across my living room and attacked on of my girls whom was sitting there minding her own business.
She has a puncture would in her stomach, my neuter has a slice on the inner part of his back leg that will likely need stitches. My stud boy? Completely fine. I checked him over once I got the other two in their carriers and not a freaking scratch.
Obviously he will no longer be able to come out with the other cats until he is neutered, but I am now terrified that even after neutering this behavior will continue. Has anyone had this happen? Or any advice going forward?
