HI. My family got a new kitten about a year ago. She used to be a funny cat that would always attack things, and we thought it was kinda' cute. After she was spayed, it dwindled a little, and now she doesn't attack us as much.
However, we have an older cat, around 8 years old, that she'll never leave alone. it's usually only once or twice a day that we notice it, but she'll attack the older cat. It doesn't look or sound like play, 'cause the older one screams and when the younger one loses grip, the older one runs awy, while the little one still chases her.
Not only that, but the younger cat, the terror, doesn't like our dog, Shadow. Shadow's a 12 year old aussie, who's playful, but never around the younger cat. Even so, the cat still hisses and jumps whenever she realizes that she's too close to him. He doesn't like the cat either, 'cause he always looks away, cautiously, whenever the cat gets close. Kinda' waiting to see if she'll attack him, or not. He never has retaliated, and, other than his large size, I'm sorta' confused as to why she'd do this.
What we're doing right now is whenever the cats are caught fighting, we stomp on the floor and yell "no!" But that hasn't helped at all. is there anything that'll make the little cat stop from terrorizing the other one? and is there any way I can make the cat like my dog?
