I feel so bad, I have a 4 year old male bengal cat who is fixed, but with a strong personality !

I found a female kitten on the street 2 years ago, which I kept.

Both of them would get a long just fine most of the time.

Every night they lay on the couch and groom each other which is really really cute, but than sometimes my male bengal would bite his neck and the female wont mind til it gets to the point where he gets really possessive and he is one strong cat !!! And the female is very tiny.

And he would just hurt her or chase her.

It almost seems like he is trying to control her !

I adopted another cat 6 months ago, who's about almost a year old now, female as well and she is fixed !

But my Bengal leaves her alone !

Every night all 3 of them lay on the couch and cuttle and groom each other and get along perfectly but sometimes it gets to that point where the Bengal tries to beat up the one female I fund on the street.

She is very shy too.

He is weird he'll sit on top of her and tries to hold her down very hard.

I was thinking since she is not fixed he's trying something there, lol

but he is fixed so I dont know...

  1. yep

    hes trying to mount her, even though hes fixed

    male cats grab the females necks and climb on

    even though hes fixed, shes not and he still smells her  


  2. I have two male cats (both fixed).  They are brothers, 10 years old.  They do the same thing - they will wash each other until one of them gets tired of it and bites the other one's neck and stands over him.  Usually, I yell at them and then they chase each other around the house.  It is not always one doing it to the other - they definitely take turns biting.  I think it comes from them trying to dominate the other.  Most of the time my two boys are very loving with each other.  I would tell your bengal NO when he does it and hopefully discourage him from continuing to do it.  I'm not so sure he is doing this for any sexual reasons since he is fixed.

  3. What you're describing is what most males do in order to mate with a female...it looks kind of harsh, but from the documentaries I have seen, that is a typical way of mating.

  4. If you read up on Bengals, they are a hybrid.  That means it was bred with a bengal to come up with the new breed.  They are very dominant and are not recommended to mingle with other cats due to this issue.

    Even though they are fixed, they will still try to mate with a female that is not.  I would get the female fixed and nothing will stop him from doing this.  Even though we have domesticated these animals, they still have the wild qualities.
