I have 2 cats that I rescued when their mother was hit and killed by a car. The kittens eyes were barely open, so they had to be bottle fed. They are now about 3 1/2. This past summer we had a neighbor move out of his house in the middle of the night and leave all of his animals. We took care of the dogs since they found their way to our front porch, until we found homes for them. Several weeks later we went up to the house and found 2 kittens had been left there also. The kittens were covered in fleas, emaciated, one also had a gaping hole with maggots. One kitten was not as bad as the other, so I gave him to another neighbor. The other one, should have weighted about 3 pounds, but was right at a pound. He had a blood transfusion, his sore healed and now you wouldn't have known he was near death several months ago. The cats all got along together until Bones (yes he got his name since her was skin and bones) was neutered. All of the cats are males and have been fixed, but now one of my older ones attack him all the time. We have found blood on the floor once before, he has scabs on his back and we will be fur all over the floor. Has anyone had a cat that was fine, but out of the blue started attacking other animals. He doesn't mess with the other cat or the dog, just Bones. Is there something I can give him to calm him down? I'm just not sure what to do, but I hate that Bones is getting attacked. Any thoughts suggestions would be great! My dog now will bark and go after Cash when he starts his grumbling and swatting at Bones.
