cozie or anyone? cat behaviour

[hollinhurst84]

Heard cat shouting so tramped outside in pjs to find it wasn't Ollie but sounded identical! Found black cat and Ollie sat together with black cat shouting. Ollie could get away but didn't
They moved and I got this video, cat near me is not mine despite the near identical noise
Aggression?
I suspect Ollie has residual "stuff" as neutered v late. But despite the noise they were quite happily sat together and it's identical to Ollie's calling noise

video has sound on

Ollie is home and skulking under the sofa. Probably plotting revenge because his mum embarrassingly came to fetch him in her pjs

....Next is vertical takeoff....

How old are they, stare?

he's 10

If he's really sitting stock still for an hour and just staring, it's odd behaviour. Especially for a Siamese.

Has he been vetted recently/ had his blood pressure checked etc?

he's standing

yy to the odd behaviour - sometimes it is hard to tell with them though :)

maybe we'll video it and show the vet

PS - how does he react to you if you go up to him and stroke him/talk to him while he's sitting staring?

standing staring

he's ok but if you move him away he goes straight back there

The only time I've ever had a cat standing/sitting for an extended time was when they were on the hunt - eg Twoago once spent about three hours sitting in front of a locked old fitted cupboard in a holiday cottage. (Mice.) He wasn't truly still, though, just 'focussed'.

You said it was on a table though? Is there anything near that that could be taking his attention?

i'll have a look around

there are fish in a tank

thanks :)

'twould do no harm to have him checked over at the vet though - if he hasn't already been, recently. If he's had a little neurological 'incident' and there's nothing up with him otherwise, it's really just business as usual I reckon.

Tonight's random behaviour. Sat outside the patio doors for the last two hours. Happy as Larry chirping away to himself. If I go out he chatters and purrs but won't come in
All I can hear is chirp chirp purr

If he's happy and not getting himself into trouble, I'd leave him to it - unless you have a curfew and need to enforce rules. There are few enough good evenings in this country for him to hang out and enjoy himself sniffing the sniff.

He came in eventually. After more sitting outside and chirruping happily
Every time I went out he purred at me and then sat there a bit more!

Ah we have noisy cat back again

That looks like a stand-off. Have you had noises out there?

Noises?! I nearly put earplugs in
Lots and lots of shouting. Black cat sloped off, Ollie is recovering with "exhaustion"

Here you go. Cat on the right is intruder

(My ears!)

Best keep a watchful eye on him for war wounds. That's going to end in fisticuffs.

Intruder wandered off eventually and Ollie came back in. I kept an eye on them but he's going to keep meeting that cat so I figured best he does it while I'm there

Sounds as if 'the intruder' backed off?

Remind me - when did Ollie have his steroid injection?

Kind of slunk off v quietly ha yes last week. He is now desperate to go out the back door which leads to where intruder cat is

There are umpty different kinds of steroids of course - I was just thinking that if he'd had the shot, he'd likely be feeling good about himself.

He'll need to satisfy himself that 'The Intruder' isn't actually lurking. (Whether or not he's there.)

I don't actually know who it belongs to or indeed if it does belong to anyone. Will have to keep an eye and check. I guess I can't keep them apart so I'll have to watch and cross fingers. He's doing a "got rid of him hooman" face
