Hi Pam,
Sometimes my 5yr old and 4 mo. old male kittys get along. The older one sometimes lavishes young one with baths.
Othertimes he hisses . The baby is so pushy and aggressive (both are fixed) that he will get "pounded" and keep coming back for more.
I try not to interfer unless there is yelling (the older one eventually '"yells"). The baby seems to be OK . I worry more about Jack -5yr old- because as Petey gets bigger he will be able to dish out the abuse more and he always starts it. He sometimes ends up in "time out" in a room by himself. How do I know when to intervene? What should I do ?
