I have one young female, (I haven't trapped her yet, she has eluded the trap everytime) she is just beautiful, she is one of my favorites, one of my first ferals of the colony, "Sisters' baby. Anyway I call her lil Sis, she has also managed not to get pregnant. I think it is because she is mean. Another feral, "Callie" started the behavior last year, she started chasing any of the others off, whenever they would come up to eat, some were frightened, some took it as play, but lil Sis, and Callie, would chase each other, it was a game for them, as I used to laugh watching them.
Well now the tables have turned, and lil Sis, is the Queen of the food area, but she is pretty hateful about it. Callie is even scared of her. I can't believe she has never gotten pregnant though, my son says ..."nobody wants any of that!" I think he's right! But then again I have never heard of a cat with female problems?
In the midst of all of this rude behavior, another one of my favorites, "sweet love" who was raised with lil Sis, is now so afraid of her, she has quite coming to eat all together, so I have now started calling her separately, and when she is visible, I go and feed her, I stay with her, while she eats, but lil Sis seeks us out, and lays or paces a few feet away, intimidating sweet love to no end, so she quits eating and starts to go retreat, but not good enough for lil Sis, she has to chase her down, and I will hear a scream from sweet love whenever lil Sis catches her and I think bits her! I don't know how to handle this situation, ok already lil Sis you are the dominent one, sweet love even gets low to the ground, and submissively, bats her eyes, like ..'Im afraid of you, please don't hurt me , I give up" but it's like the more she cows down , the more lil sis abuses. Help! I don't know what to do about this!
Similiar situation at my sisters' house, one of her male cats, who is neutered, has been getting into it with a stray tom, the tom beats him up, and then he turns around and will run Lily away, Lily is her outdoor baby, and I love her so much, I have been witness to Rocky's bad behavior toward Lily.
I am scared he is going to eventually run Lily off and she won't come back!
How do I stop this , I would die if Lily or Sweet Love run off and I never see them again! Please help!!!
