Storm is the alpha cat around here now but I think that Pearl just might become the new alpha when she gets older because right now she always gets her way and all of her brothers adore her. LOL :D

It's definitely Mango. The girls give in to whatever he says. He often takes their sleeping spot just because he can but mostly he's a benevolent dictator. If there's a foster cat in the house and he says the cat is OK then the girls grudgingly leave it alone. They worry about their place in the pecking order being disturbed but Mango is secure. Mango likes to play with foster kittens - kind of a surrogate daddy - and it's the cutest thing to watch. He really is a sweet guy.
Saphirah is the alpha cat here, without a doubt!!
Maxie is the alpha BEING in my family. He orders everybody around (pets AND humans). I just wished he'd pay the bills! :D :)
I don't think it's a question of age, as Peggy seemed to be ready for the alpha role almost right from the start, and Dino seems to have accepted it.

While Mollie Rose, my 12 year old, is the oldest in my house, she isn't the alpha cat. All the cats respect her, but Maya Linn in the alpha female. And who else but MooShoo (the only male in the house) is the alpha male.
I didn't know that there can be alpha males AND females at the same time. That's interesting!
