playful towards each other. But this morning they fought and it go
very ugly. They are both right now in separate cat carriers in separat

I would keep them separate for a couple of days and s-l-o-w-l-y
reintroduce them. Let each cat have a separate room. Rub a towel on
each cat and leave it for the other cat to smell. Feed them treats
under a door so they can smell each other. Start swapping the rooms
they are in so they can get used to the smells.

Do you know anything that might have gotten one or both of them upset?
Strange cat or other animal outside? A visitor or new person?

Take it slow and be patient. I have been through this and it takes
time. You can do it!

Thanks for the advice.  We moved into a new house about 2 months ago an
there are a lot of cats in the new neighborhood.  What do you thin
about putting them in separate cat carriers and leaving them in th
same room together?  Right now, they hiss every time they see eac
other through a cracked door
