We have 3 cats, the eldest is a rescue cat, the middle cat was a rescue but got her as a kitten and she had one litter before we could get her neutered, the third cat is one from her litter, also neutered but had no kittens.
The middle cat used to be really lovely, DS has autism and was constantly picking her up and mauling with her and she used to purr and not even blink about it. She always got on with the other cats etc
I got together with Bf about 3/4 months ago, he was my friend before. But she seemed to take to him immediately, about a week in she started growling if any of the other cats came anywhere near him. It was funny at first, she was a bit possessive.
But now it's constant. If he's there and she's sat on him and I stroke her she scratches me. If any cats come near her ever (even of he isn't here) she hisses, if anyone else comes to visit she sniffs them and goes and sits and faces the wall as if in a strop that it's not BF its dead odd!!!
She never scratches or hisses at BF....
Is this normal?? Do they tend to get this possessive over people??
