It sounds like your cat feels neglected and is competing for attention. We had somewhat similar problems with our cat Foxy and our Yorkie, Bella. We keep Bella crated on our nightstand at night so the cat is free is roam and sleep in the bed with us. The days belong to Bella, and the nights belongs to Foxy. Bella chases Foxy away from us during the day, but Foxy has safe places to go--rooms with baby gates that only she can jump. Foxy's food and litter box are in one such room. Foxy sometimes performs ninja raids on Bella's food, but we usually catch her and run her off. They don't hate each other, but Bella definitely dominates Foxy, even though she weighs only about half as much. |
