Lately my old female cat has been antagonizing Pete into a chase - he thinks it's a game, I'm assuming, because he hasn't killed her yet. She doesn't think it's a game as she hisses and uses her claws on his face. They can't be in the same room any more, or even in the same area. Luckily she can retreat upstairs where he's not allowed, but he's always looking up there for her. I'm worried this might get out of hand and he will hurt her (or worse).
There doesn't seem to be a problem with the male cat, except he gets upset when he hears the dog snarling. He'll puff himself up and come stalking into the room to see what's going on. He has gone after Petey in the past when the dog and my husband are playing.
I need some suggestions pls on how to stop this, other than crating because I don't have one.
Thanks, Lisa
