How to stop two cats from fighting, especially a deaf and intact one?

Question

Hi, I can't tell if my Wilkie the cat is aggression. Wilke always wants to fight with my other deaf cat first. My deaf cat always wants a fight with a feral cats but not my cats. But now,, my deaf cat also wants to fight with my Wilkie. Wilkie tries to avoid him but my deaf cat always wants a fight with him. My Wilkie can't stay inside because of my deaf cat. Now, I don't know if who is the aggression cat here,my Wilkie or my deaf cat? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 5 months old | 7.5 lbs

I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. It's so hard when our cats don't get along. Sometimes there isn't a clear cut "aggressor" and "victim". Like most things in life, it's often more complicated than that. One of my favorite things to start in a household with cats that aren't getting along is a synthetic pheromone called Feliway. It generally makes cats calmer, but does not sedate them, so it is often good for both cats. https://www.amazon.com/Comfort-Zone-Multicat-Diffuser-Calming/dp/B014HCXECW/ref=sr_1_2?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1503708833&sr=1-2&keywords=feliway I noticed that you have Wilkie listed as unneutered. Often intact male cats will fight over territory, so having him neutered may stop this behavior if that is a factor. Other options may include behavioral modification and even medications if your vet thinks those may be useful. I hope that helps. Thanks for using PetCoach.
