So we have a new kitten named Eevee. And a 7 year old male cat named Colby.
We have had Eevee for over a month now. She is about 10 weeks old. They play together, can eat from the same dish, and for the most part get along.
He does hiss and growl at her if she bugs him. And she usually backs off.
But now....a lot of the time....it seems like Colby hates me. Like bi-polar even. They were happy to see me, and I fed them. Then he started growling when he was done. Then growled in the litter box. Then up on the counter I tried to pet him and he growled and nipped at me.
He goes through these stages..alot of the time when she is around. And if he is sitting with me on the couch, and she comes near. He will growl and hiss and move away. If she is not around I can pet him usually without problem
He was mommys boy and now....it takes effort to get any love from him
What have I done wrong? How can i fix our relationship?
