My cat tiffany the smaller female. She thinks that this pretened play mouse that we got is real. She is always growling at it when she gets the chance to anyway. Also she will hiss and spit at Jay the bigger male and wont let him join in. How do you think I would be able to stop this behaviour. Question Question Question

That's cute that tiffany thinks the play mouse is real. I agree, maybe getting another mouse so they can each have their own would help.

Hi. Yes, I agree. Get another toy mouse. They sure can be funny with some of their toys. Laughing

Well thanks for your ideas. I will try and get another mouse for my male cat. I think that should help, so they can play with their own mouse. Also she is definatley not scared of it. She graves it and chews it up and I think she is the alpa cat. The thing is though if we do again get him one of his home because we have before but she collects both of them, then guards. So i think we have a bit if a problem.

WELL THANKS
Your the best Your the best

Zeus growls with his....check out ebay. I got a package of FIFTY for a couple of bucks through ebay.
I always toss a couple into the take-home bag w/fosters and my cats have them scattered all over the house
