"Cassie is much bigger than Nigel or Shay, and we wondered why. An indoor security cam helped us find out:

07:55 hrs - All three cats fed. Same size bowls, same food, same amount.

07:56 - The feeder human walks away, and goes to work.

07:57 - Shay takes two huge bites, then her eyes start wandering over to Nigel's bowl... What's in there? He sure seems to be enjoying it. Is his food better than MY food?

07:58 - Shay noses her bowl closer to Nigel. She slyly paws at Nigel's bowl while still eating her own food, trying to draw it closer. Nigel gives a low growl, not standing for any of this bulls**t.

07:59 - Shay flings herself at Nigel in a jealous rage. The fight takes them out of the kitchen and into the living room, leaving behind two half-full bowls.

08:04 - Cassie calmly finishes her bowl, then moseys on over to the other bowls and finishes both of them.

This happens EVERY. DAY."

"I don't anymore but I once had both a cat and a guinea pig some 25 years ago and they seemed to hate each other. Whenever my cat got near the cage the guinea pig would start squealing aggressively at the cat and the cat would swat at the cage while sporting a look of utter disgust. That was a daily routine. It was the first thing that happened in the morning and it lasted a minute then they didn't bother each other for the rest of the day and the cat could even nap on top of the cage at times without any protest for either. It was just part of the day for them. That drama just had to happen every day.

They went on like that for 7 years. The guinea pig got really sick because he was old and I realize he doesn't have long left. I picked him up out of the cage and put him on my lap so he didn't have to die alone. The f**king cat came up and licked the guinea pig and laid on my lap beside him until he passed. Apparently, the cat loved him all along. The 7-year drama was just their thing. That still amazes me."

My Guinea pig, Teela, asserted instant dominance over our rescue kitten. Teela was roaming because she knew how to open her cage. We sat the kitten in front of her and Teela let out an unholy shriek, and that was that. Ripley grew up to be a huge black queen who was alpha to all other felines, but she was totally submissive to one tiny fearless guinea pig, who knew it and basked in her dominance

"A friend of ours who volunteers with a feral cat CNR program (capture, neuter, release) caught two kittens who were too friendly to release. She called us up and said, "Hey, you like cats, foster these two kittens, please?"

So now our 14-year-old cat Iris gets to deal with two rambunctious little boys. Sam the siamese is a little afraid of her, so he doesn't bother her much, but Ralph the tabby very much wants to be friends with her. He'll even drop his favorite mousie next to her while she's sleeping.

Iris was very put out that these little punks were invading her space, but she is slowly learning to tolerate the boys. She still deals out hisses and swats when one of them crosses a line, and they're respectful enough to back off.

BTW, the boys are foster failures. They're in their forever home."

"I have two sibling cats, a boy, and a girl. The girl developed heart problems and wasn't eating as much, so the boy cat took advantage and was eating a lot of her share. Now she's a little too skinny and he's gotten fat.

Ok, so I need to separate their food - So I got an automatic feeder for the boy cat and made a feeder box that only the girl cat could fit in, which made the boy cat mad. He eventually gained the confidence to Winnie-the-pooh himself into her feeder box, which is frustrating if I ever need to be gone for the weekend, as he'll literally eat all her food before she touches it.

So far my solution is to put a little inflatable collar on him when I'm gone, so he has a barrier beside his fat to keep him from going in.

Also, I had to barricade his automatic feeder because he kept beating it up to get loose kibbles. Now he stares longingly at that feeder all day."

They will each snub their own food in favor of stealing the rest. I literally have to feed each of my pets in its own room with a closed door, there's a whole process to feeding time around here.

That’s how small dogs, as well as cats, end up in charge of an entire pack of large dogs. Small dogs just rush in and take charge when no one else does, and cats add in the element of surprise by beating and scratching the f**k out of everyone—-and doing it so lightning fast, you’d have to slow down the film (if you’re equally as fast at getting your phone out and its camera running) to see everything that’s happening. Additionally, if the future large dog is a puppy, the small dog or cat is probably bigger, and will immediately establish dominance so forcefully the dog remembers and respects it their entire lives.

"3 guinea pigs, Janis, Zeppelin, and Jovi. Janis and Zep are 2, Jovi will be 1 in May and we've only had her for a few months (she's a rescue). Jovi, despite being a fraction of her size, is challenging Janis for "dominant pig" status in the cage.

The amount of chasing, humping, rumbling, etc going on is truly ridiculous. Like... They're small adorable balls of fluff, the fact that they're trying to intimidate each other at all is fairly hilarious to watch. Janis will chase Jovi down, mount her for a minute, then run off, Jovi will immediately chase after her like "I'll hump you right back".

Meanwhile, Zeppelin is usually watching them with a look of "don't involve me in your f****ry, I just want to nap". Every once in a while they drag her into it and it's all downhill from there."

This is the life I am living right now. XD I have a 6-year-old female black cat and a 1-year-old male tux. I thought for some reason they'd be that Instagram cat pair who slept together in cat beds and groomed each other. Nope. The boy pokes the older cat in the literal ásshole at every chance he gets, and she makes goblin noises at him. Over and over and over. They also both like the SAME perches and beds so they war over them constantly. The second one moves from a bed to use the litterbox, the other will TELEPORT to the bed instantly XD

"I have 3 dogs. 2 of them are having a mostly passive-aggressive war over toys.

It started with a squeaky toy, a blue bone-shaped one. The younger dog, Reese, started showing off how wonderful the squeaky toy is. The older dog, Pepper, is very jealous. So he would carefully steal it every time Reese got the slightest bit careless.

This escalated to them tossing it in the air in front of the other to taunt about who had the toy. Needless to say, some tosses resulted in the toy changing hands.

Soon other toys got really contentious. Pepper especially wanted all the toys so he lay on top of them like a dragon hoard. Reese would take whatever toy he had and toss it in front of Pepper to show that there were still good toys not in his dragon hoard.

This culminated with a serious disagreement between them and now all the toys are out of reach for the foreseeable future."

But sometimes the Aussie who is older and still the alpha for a bit longer steals the Ball and gnaws on it in plain sight of the Lab.

As soon as he snatches his blanky back, the Lab swoops in and steals the Ball back!

"I have a very very stupid cat and a very smart alpha dog. The cat is in love with the dog and the dog wants to bully her like she does other dogs but the cat literally doesn't learn. The dog finally gave up and lets the cat cuddle and groom her but has a very short temper when it interferes with her naps.

Said dumb cat also has asthma, sometimes causing her to cough in her sleep (not severe, usually completely controlled with inhalers, but she does flare seasonally and takes about a week to get it back under control). Well, it's spring flare time and the dog just can't. She's already cranky my husband is working from home and he interrupts her all-important naps. Well now the cat, usually cuddled up against her sound asleep, is also waking her up.

She has taken to punting said cat off of the couch when it happens. Just straight up "go suffocate somewhere else, will you?" The poor cat looks so confused and hurt, I mean she was in a dead sleep with her favorite creature on the planet, and now she's struggling to breathe, then she's suddenly falling. Then cue me chasing her while scolding the dog, trying to get the cat to take her rescue inhaler, which she hates (I guess the smell is worse than her maintenance inhaler). Meanwhile, the dog has no regrets, none. Will do again."

He then will go sit next to my wife and stare angrily at her for hours. We've been married for over a year, and living together for over two, so this cat holds a grudge.

No, it’s that the one chose the bed, and the other doesn’t want them to have it. Doesn’t matter that there’s a duplicate bed right next to it. If one doggie has it, the other feels that they MUST take it away from them. Sometimes one prevails, and the other has to sleep in the other bed. Sometimes there’s a standoff, where both lay claim, and have to share the bed. TBH, it’s not the bed that’s the bone of contention, it’s the possession of one bed by one dog, and the jealousy of the other, with both of them playing a zero sum game—-Dog 1 thinking that Dog 2 taking “that” bed for themself is a bed taken away from Dog 1, even though Dog 1 already has a duplicate bed of their own.

Also whenever the kitten is in the same room as the bunnies, he runs for them, and the bunnies get scared. The bunnies either run back into their hutches, or jump up and land on the cat when he attacks, or they run away leaving a trail of poop pellets on the carpet."

I think the owner of the bunnies needs to learn more about them. Humping is a dominance behaviour, particularly if it’s head humping. As prey animals, rabbits are programmed to run away from or in very dangerous situations, attack potential predators. Allowing a kitten to run at them is incredibly stressful.

"The dog thinks the cat is going to steal her bone. Cat is actually just rolling around scratching her back on the floor.

Cat washes their feet in all the water bowls around the house except the one in the same room as her tree. The dog is upset by dirty water. Cat gets confused when the dog drinks out of her "good bowl".

They have a cold war going on over their beds. They swap when one is upset with the other. Beds are identical and a foot from each other."

"We have 2 dogs, a very large all-black German Shepherd, and a recently adopted miniature dachshund. At first, they were getting along fine but now the German Shepherd literally follows the little dachshund around everywhere he goes! They're literally inseparable now and it's kind of adorable lol. The only real drama that's come from this is that now both dogs fight for attention whenever the other seems to get some."

"Seven chickens are playing outside on a warm early spring day. They keep coming to the patio for snacks. A 7-month-old mastiff has no snacks but hopes the foul friends will open the screen door so she can go out too. Them bitches just won’t. When puppers get out, she tried to blend in with the flock. She’s over a hundred pounds. They notice."

"My wife and I have 2 cats. Our oldest, we had for about 2 years before we adopted our youngest. At first, our older cat did not like our younger cat much at all. They're both males, so I'm sure there's some competition going on, but they've since become civil with each other. However, when my wife and I go to bed, our younger cat loves to jump up and lay down with us. Our older cat does too, but our youngest won't let him. Our younger cat will walk up and bite the older cat on his butt (lower back, but that's not as funny to say) and our older cat won't even put up a fight. He just leaves. The younger cat is hoarding his humans all to himself. That is, until recently though. The last few nights our older cat has been laying down with us too, and it seems like they've come to a truce. I'm optimistic that they'll get along and not bite each other's butts to steal prime cat loafing real estate, but I won't be surprised if this fragile truce is broken any time soon."

I had two cats when I got married, and my husband and I have had a minimum of two—-and at one time, a maximum of five—-cats, since we got married almost 23 years ago, plus a cat-loving dog for about twelve of those years. Each and every one a stray rescued right off the street. Never ever had a problem sharing the bed with us. We have had many a night with two humans, one dog, and up to five cats all snuggled up in a heap—-though the cats did share the night patrol of the house by taking their shifts, then coming bc’ to the bed to tap out whichever cats has the next shift. It’s similar to what they do if one of us is laid up sick or recuperating from surgery (which is nice when the other spouse has to go to work. You never feel all alone, because you always have some combination of them, cats or dog, keeping you company

If the dog is eating your other dog's feces, you could try putting Forbid in your pets food and it is supposed to make the feces taste bad (worse?). Sometimes cooked or canned spinach can work too. Or spraying the feces in a preemptive strike with Bitter Apple.

"We adopted a heavily abused and partially blind dog who was full of anxiety. We also have 4 cats but only 2 of them are brave enough to go visit her.

The drama is that when she hears all the cats running around playing she wants to join but being semi-blind and having a 50/50 chance it won't be a friendly cat she just gets sad and whines."

You can also use some sort of scent on the shoes (or your shoes) to help out also. Not sure the cat wants to smell like peppermint though. Maybe you can find a chicken flavor one.

"3 cats (2 on purpose, then we had a happy accident for the third) Miku, Chloe, and Oliver. Oliver wants to play CONSTANTLY, and both the girls hate that. They’ll cuddle with him in order to share a lap, but they get so mad at him when he tries to play. They don’t hurt him though, just swatting with no claws and growls. Whenever they try to do that though he runs to my mom and cries until she picks him up. He’s definitely got youngest child syndrome."

"2 of the cats are best buddies, and the 3rd is independent and is very love/hate. Nothing to worry about.

One thing they have teamed up on is Walter, our new Shark Roomba. They hiss at it and instead of hiding or going on higher furniture have to keep an eye on it. They certainly didn't like when it got too close to their food and water dishes. Then when it returned to its base they sit directly around it and stare at it, keeping an eye on it."

"1) I have two male cats and two female hamsters. The oldest of my male cats is obsessed with sitting in front of one of the hamster's cages and staring. I've started yelling at him to "stop watching the little girls" and calling him a creep.

2) Frogger and Boi, my male African dwarf frogs, enjoy a little flogging before and after mealtime. Sometimes they sing in harmony, other times it sounds like the two little things are going to war.

3) Lastly, my 36 gal sorority of 9 bettas has all the drama. So much drama."

When I go out and check it out the stray cat is on the other side of the sidewalk and my cat is at my door all curled up. All this happens and my other cat just stares through the window with a dislike for my yelling cat.

I’m ashamed of my cat because her yelling is super loud and all my neighbors know it’s her causing drama."

"My black cat, Vex, is a cuddle bug, mostly with me but if I'm not around my brother is a good substitute for her. My brother's cat, Noodle, hates cuddling if it lasts more than a minute and will bite to tell you he's done.

Well, Vex gets jealous easily, and she saw Noodle laying in my lap the other day. She jumped in my lap with him and tried pushing him off. Noodle got pissed and twacked her in the head, and now the cats aren't on speaking terms. At least till it's nap time, 'cause they still cuddle up with each other for nap time."

"Old drama, but when I moved into my last apartment my cats met my roommate’s cat: Jenny. Jenny is an incredible creature, talkative and cuddly and weird but also passive-aggressive as f**k. She would get a lil jealous if my cats got more attention, but mostly she just got mad when she didn't get to go outside. When she got angsty she took it out on the other cats. In my first week, she pushed my oldest off the balcony. Marzipan hit the iron fencing below and lost a tooth. Somehow Marz still loved Jenny."

"Three cats until several months ago, now four. All from different litters. All fixed.

When it was just the three girls they had a shifting power dynamic that my wife and I called the Triple Détente. When the male was added, things got weird. He terrorizes one, creepily stalks another, and is terrified of the third. This has created a bizarre new dynamic with a top cat (the female that terrifies the male) for the first time in years."

"We adopted a puppy last year (a german pointer/mutt female). Our 6-year-old pup (corgi/border collie male) was fine at first, but gradually decided he was not having any of her shenanigans and will growl/bark at her when he doesn't want to play. Now she's turned it into a game and whenever she wants attention she lays in front of him on her back, belly exposed wags her tail, and wiggles her body - she never touches him during this. He ALWAYS responds with low-tone growling and a random bark. It's the dog version of "I'm not touching you"."

"Y'all aint ready for this with your lovely dog and cat stories...

So I have many fish tanks, and one of them contains our dramatics society. 2 clownfish, an enormous anemone, an assortment of snails including 2 Cowrie Snails, a red-lipped bivalve, a blenny, and a couple of sea moths.

So the Cowrie snails were valentines present from my fiance and they have spines. Where do they want to go? Wherever the anemone is. Cue the anemone getting literally butthurt by Cowrie spines and climbing out of the hole it has lived in for 6 months to roll around the tank stinging the s**t out of all the corals and killing most of them.

The anemone looks like Cthulu's flashlight it's massive, easily 10 inches in diameter on the oral disk and the stalk is like a human arm. If it had the wit to put its tentacles on the cowrie on the run around then it would probably be able to eat them. It has eaten a couple of unwary fish before and is known for swallowing razor clams with the shell and all - but the cowrie has not only outsmarted it at every turn but they appear to find a reason to ram it in the arse every day, which causes the nem to flee at a similar speed and try to settle elsewhere, only to be bullied again a few hours later.

I am looking to rehome the anemone for this reason - it's a Heteractis Magnifica if anyone in the UK would like to buy it, lol."

Be careful with outside cats wearing a coat since they do a lot of climbing and the coat could get stuck in a branch or fence or something.

"The big cat's on a diet so she's jealous of the little one who gets to free feed (food bowl on top of a high shelf). Their relationship was strained and she started beating up the little one whenever my sister smelled like her/she smelled like my sister because she was feeling territorial. The little one is avoiding my sister out of fear.

Now they have somewhat of a truce because we're fostering a bulldog. The bulldog loves the cats and really wants to be friends, but she has breathing problems that make her sound like she's always growling, and her tail was docked so she has nothing to wag. The big cat has been hiding in rooms the dog can't access. The little cat has been watching from up high and is comfortable that the bulldog won't hurt her but thinks she's kind of loud and overbearing anyway and often hisses at her to go away."
