It sounds like you have a lot of things going on with Cecile. Cats can have aggression for many different reasons, with territorial or fear based aggression being the top two, but many other common causes. It can be hard to figure out what the cause is and even harder to start to reduce the aggression. Without having more information, I would recommend two things: - Pay a lot of attention to when the aggression happens and work on avoiding any triggers you can identify. - Talk with your vet about anti-anxiety medication to see if that helps with all of his issues. If you have access to a veterinary behaviorist, I would definitely recommend a consultation, but i don't know of the availability in Indonesia.
