...........I agree with you. I have one cat whose mission it is to go
after one of my younger ones. I think I made it worse by getting on her
when she started all that, since it did not the slightest bit of good.
This younger cat did nothing to her. Don't know why she hates him.

..........If all they're doing is growling, I'd leave them to sort it
out. All my cats do a bit of paw waving and hissing once in a while.
They really don't pack up like dogs do, but they do have a pecking
order. Only my old cat seriously tries to kill the younger one. He's
finally standing up for himself and it doesn't frighten him as much.
