    I don't think it is normal, but my Felicia has fought with any other cat I have had.

    Cats fighting

    Do you have areas for them to "get away" from each other? Cat trees for example? How many cats do you have? If you only have two, can you separate them for a while, and then slowly reintroduce them? Have you noticed a pattern of what sets them off? How frequently does it happen? You also wrote about a cat being in heat on another thread - if your cats are not spayed/neutered, they can be more aggressive. Give more details, I'm sure someone will be able to help you out.

    Why can't you get them fixed?

    If it's money, the local shelter might know of a low cost spay and neuter program.

    Is that why you can't? The cost?

    There are some other people here from Texas, and they might have information on that for your area.

    Spay and Neuter

    On another thread you write about your cat Miss Prissy - who had babies that died, and then got pregnant again. You talked there of not being able to afford spay/neuter, and of not finding anyplace to help. Is that still the case, or do you NOT want to spay/neuter your cats? Do you know the dangers?

    I have seen cats die from pyometra - a deadly infection of the uterus, where pus comes out the vagina. The vet needs to do an emergency hysterectomy (surgery to take the uterus out), and hope that the infection has not spread to the point of killing the cat. I have seen cats with mammary cancer - it is a VERY aggressive cancer. Pyometra cannot happen in a spayed female. Mammary cancer risks are greatly reduced if you spay your cat at a young age.

    Your male cat could develop testicular cancer. Not to mention, the problems you are having with them fighting.

    The last link is specific for Texas, and has some places that are free. I don't know much about Texas, so don't know if they are close to you or not - but PLEASE call them. For your cats' health!!!

    If I lived in near you in Texas, I would even drive you to the clinic. Is that also part of the problem?

    I'm not meaning to come down hard on you - but you've been writing about this since September. It's time to get your cats proper veterinary care.
