Hey All! Been awhile. So-I recently rescued a cat from the local shelter. History is unclear as the other two shelters he’d been in said he was 2 but this local shelter vet thought, by his teeth, he was 12. I think he’s two, given the kitten-like rambunctiousness. I renamed him Banjo. He’s tons of fun and bonded with my King Charles Cavalier Spaniel named Jade right away-they are about the same size. If anything, Banjo is a bit bigger! According to his papers he was neutered sometime within a few years back.
A few times now in the evening when I am on my recliner, Jade on the footrest, Banjo on my lap-he looks at Jade laying there and slowly, very slowly, MOUNTS HER-front legs gently but firmly around her neck- and starts to hump her. Again, so slowly she doesn’t even wake up for a bit, then she’ll look at him, me, and just move onto the floor.
The first time this happened I was pretty weirded out- but it was so odd it was a little funny. Now I’m just discouraging him.
My question is- is this kinda like a ‘proud cut’ gelding? Something I should talk to a vet about? Or just keep discouraging the behavior? That I’ll do no matter. What think?
