We've got 4 cats and all of them are spayed/neutered.
Katie is 9, Jack is 5 and Sally is 15 months. Before Sally we had Saffy who was 14 when we lost her, they all got on OK together without problem.
Then we got Amy who is now 5 months old. They do all get on but Jack is pouncing on Amy and making her cry. It looks as if he is trying to mount her but he has never done this with the other girls, and why start now? She's only just been spayed herself and can do without this. He jumps on her back, pins her down, yowls and bites her and it makes her cry. Other than shout at him and lob cushions I don't know what we can do.
Anyone come across it and any suggestions? It could just be male dominance as he feels threatened by 3 girl cats? I don't think he is trying to have sex with her because I don't think he has a clue what to do! He was neutered at 4 months.
