Seeing as this original thread was more than 2 yrs old, I'm going to only address this post that bumped it back to current....
It is not al all uncommon for a female to become quite agressive when they are in season. It would be in the best interest of them both to keep them separated until she is out of season...which is up to 3 weeks. Accidents and happen in an instant, so don't leave them alone unsupervised for even a split second. ("Accidents" can be avoided.
)
In any case, do not worry, your girls behavior is not at all out of the ordinary. Welcome to YT!
