My cats hiss at my recently neutered cat. Should I bathe them all?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

I got my cat fixed 9 days ago and my two other cats tolerate him for a while and then at some point hiss so at that event i separate them. Would it help if I bathe all 3 of them? Or would that make things worse?

Bathing all three cats may help but may not do much since it has been 9 days. Using Feliway wipes or sprays may help. And removing the cats from each other as you have been is the absolute right thing to do. Here’s an article with some other suggestions http://www.vetstreet.com/care/nonrecognition-aggression-in-cats Good luck. Thanks for using PetCoach.
