How do you stop two female cats from fighting?About 6 months ago my boyfriend and I moved in together. He has already had a one year old female cat. I myself had three cats whom we all moved in together. As it stands almost everyone gets along except for his one year female cat and my six year old female cat. The oldest female keeps attacking the youngest to the point were she is bleeding. The one year old is now so scared to go anywhere in the house because she is worried about the oldest one. She no longer goes down to the litter box and just goes in the corner upstairs. My oldest will trap her in a room for hours at a time and if she moves will attack her. I live in a very large house so space is not an issue. I have used the water bottle, locked her rooms on her own and pretty much am out of options! Hoping someone can help!

- Probably an alpha problem. This means that the older cat feels she is threatened by the presence of the younger cat because the older cat is the current alpha, and wants to keep it that way. I would consider consulting a professional cat psychologist (there are such thing) because I believe there are medication to calm cats who are aggressive to others. If the other cats you have are female, the reason your cat wouldn't attack them would probably be because she knows them better. Just a tip, not really answer. Hope it helps!

I have two male cats that are brothers. Midnight keeps dominating Harvest. How do you stop Midnight from doing this?

It is quite natural for male cats, and female cats, to dominate each other, even if they are kin. If they aren't spayed, the fighting problem may be worse than if they were. If they are spayed, there really isn't much you can do to stop them from fighting. Again, it is entirely natural and is an instinct.

To effectively stop feral cats from fighting, you can try providing separate feeding stations, neutering or spaying the cats to reduce aggression, and creating a safe and calm environment for them. Additionally, you can use deterrents like motion-activated sprinklers or noise devices to discourage fighting. Regular monitoring and intervention can help prevent conflicts among feral cats.
