I have been trying to give Ripley as much time, if not more, than Rocky but it just doesn't seem to be helping. It's not that he hates Rocky, I can tell Ripley likes him as much as he can possible like another cat (which isn't a lot) it just seems to be he doesn't want Rocky getting any attention from me. Richard can love all over Rocky and Rip doesn't care but if watches and follows me everywhere to see what I'm doing with Rocky. He has no problems with me giving Jazz, Scout or Rumor attention but they are all females.
Maybe it is an alpha cat issue and he is threatened by Rocky even though Rocky has never tried to be the alpha. I hadn't really thought of that. Guess I'll just have to give Ripley double or triple time and Rocky and I'll will have to sneak around, LOL. Rocky really demands attention and love, he is such a baby. He wants to be held on his back in my arms while I scratch his chin and stomach.
