my cat chases and attacks cat & howls...

cwjr Feb 04, 2008 10:30 AM

i have 2 scottish folds that are at odds. they are both 11y.o. from the same litter. (one male and one female). in the last month my boy has been chasing her around and she hisses, growls, etc. and they eventually get into a fight which i usually have to break up. then he starts howling after the fight. he'll howl very loudly when he cant get to her and keeps howling for a long time. drives me crazy. he's never been this way before and even though the female cat doesn't get along very well with the other 2 cats there has never been this much hostility between them.

If this is a new behavior for the male and his sister, I think I would start with a Vet visit for him. Make sure that there is not something medical going on.

Hi,

I agree with the other poster that a vet check is a good place to start. Often sudden behavioral changes occur when a cat has some kind of medical problem.

Might be a good idea to have both of them checked out if possible since they are senior kitties.

Regards,
