    Strange Behaviour with new cat

    I am owned by two maine coons, Kenny and Eric. We also had an elderly moggie who we sadly lost several months ago. He was there before the MCs and just about tolerated them but was definitely alpha cat.

    We now have a new moggie who we got when he was 9 weeks old and he is now 4 and a half months. We kept them fairly separated to start with but he (Georgie) has now settled in well. Out of the two MCs I thought I would have most trouble with Eric who is the one with the most cattitude, but he plays quit nicely with Georgie and if anything it seems to have brought him more to life chasing Georgie around.

    Kenny hasn't really shown aggressive behaviour towards Georgie, but he does chase him around, bit his neck and for want of a better word, try to mount Georgie. Kenny of course is neutered, but Georgie is still intact and we are planning to get him done in the next few weeks. I was just wondering if anyone has come across this behaviour before and if so how did they deal with it? I'm just hoping Kenny doesn't start spraying or anything. The curious thing is that they both seem fascinated by his "bits", with even Eric attempting to bite them during play. Do you think they feel threatened by this little tiny thing because he hasn't been neutered yet, even though he's so young?

    Any comments or advice would be appreciated.
