Hey all,
I have three cats (two bengals, one old/deaf typical housecat). Took the housecat and one bengal to vet, and of course upon returning the typical non-recognition aggression began. Not new to this usually. A week later, took the other bengal. It's now been another week, and they are still behaving weird.
We leave for europe on Friday for two weeks - the problem is, one bengal corners the other and she gets so scared she pees everywhere, all over the hardwood. Sounds like wildcat wars. I don't remember it being this bad, and don't remember it lasting this long (then again we usually bring the bengals for their yearly checkup at the same time).
If I have to separate one in a small room for two weeks with a sitter coming by once a day, is this going to just make matters worse? I really can't think of any other options if they don't get better, and I'm not going to cancel our super expensive trip over it obviously.
Another thing to note: They'll eat off the same plate as each other and sniff each other without warring. It's usually around 3AM when we are woken up by terrible screaming / fighting / stalking, leading to separation. We set up two diffusers yesterday in a desperate attempt to stop this before we go to Europe, and plan to try leaving them out again tonight.
And the housecat doesn't care, she's deaf and oblivious to what they're doing. Poor thing
Bengals are only 10-12% bengal, so they aren't F1's or F2's or anything.
Thanks in advance! Any advice would be great. Or commiserating. That helps too.
