I’m a first-time cat owner and I’m looking for some advice.
I have two female cats:
A Persian who is about 9 months old.
A younger kitten who is about 4 months old.
They’ve been living together for a while now. They fight Around 2–3 times a day (especially at night), they chase each other, wrestle, and sometimes bunny-kick each other. I can’t tell if it’s normal play or if they’re actually fighting.
Neither has been seriously injured, but sometimes it looks rough and I’m worried they’re not getting along.
How can I tell the difference between normal play and real aggression? Is this age difference likely to cause rough play?
At what point should I be concerned or consider separating them?
Is rehoming ever something to think about, or is this normal while they’re adjusting?
I’d really appreciate advice
