Fighting!!
I have two 1 year (and maybe older) cats. One's a Boy and another is a Girl. They Fight everytime they see each other. So we have to separate them. Like one Will Be In one room with the door closed and another will be in another room! What Can I Do to Make Them Stop!?!?

Maybe give some free advice about: Pets?
male and female cats of that age usually do fight. theres not a whole lot you can do,both thier ages and thier sex play a role in it. my cat is male and only two but he always attacked my sisters cat who was around 5. weve also temporaily had a female of 2 with us and they would chase each other all over to fight. we generally left them alone unless one started crying, then just stomping towards them like your gonna kick some serious butt usually broke it up, if you have to give the worst of the offenders a "knock it off" tap on the butt. or get a spray bottle an fill it with JUST WATER give em both a squirt when they get to fussing. the fighting will prolly last longer because of thier different sexes but theyll both chill out with age.good luck

I say dont do anything i have two cats to and they fight but they are soon going to get used to each other if you ask your vet what to do he will say to let them do it but if it becomes to hard-core fights then i would say find out what is going on they might not even like each other and maybe if this is true then you should keep them away for as long as you can until they get the hint that they will have to live with each other.

Gradually introduce them....like through a baby gate. And SUPROVISE. They are probobley getting tarritorial and wanting all attention to themselves. So make sure you dont give one more attention than the other. And feed them in spereate rooms. I dont think its a death-fight, its just to see whos stronger. Don't let it get out of hand. Dont worry.

Here are some ways..
-Take two different towels.. rub one cat to one towel and one to the other. Once that is done, set the towel under the food bowl of the opposite cat. This way.. the cats have to smell each other.
-If you have 2 kennels, at night, put the cats inside the kennels and set the right in front of each other but about 3 inches away. This way, they are always seeing one another at all times, but they cant reach each other. If you do this at night, you might want to put them in a separate room from you, because most cats will whine.
-Vets usually will tell you that cats will become friends when you turn around. They do it on their own and when no one is looking. Vets suggest that you clip their claws til the white area is gone. Dont go all the way to the pink area though, it will make them bleed. This way, if they get into a fight, they wont scratch each other.

well you should let them get along...my cat moomoo and my sister's cat didn't like each other for awhile and less then a week they got along...so i would let them go...now if they have claws then don't let them fight...so the best thing to do is just let try to get along with each other...and one other thing don't get rit of one...hoped i helped...♥ alley

Get them used to eachother. When I got a new kitten and I had other cats, I was told to take a towel, rub the cats, and then with the same towel rub the kitten. It should help them get used to eachother's scents. This way they don't see eachother as "Different" or "enemies". I don't know if your situation is the same as mine but you should try.

try to play with them both

the best thing i think you should do is put them in seperate rooms, WHERE THEY CAN SEE AND SMELL each other. then they will get used to each other. this has worked for many people, and if not you, you should talk to a vet.
