How To Stop Aggressive Cats
First and foremost aggression in felines is completely natural and their level of aggression is imprinted when still in the litter. Some cats can be overly aggressive while others can be timid and un-engaging when you introduce cats with polar traits you will find that the aggressive cat will dominate the other cats as they did within the litter.First you have to find out what is making your cat or other cats more aggressive in order to correct the behavior; below are some possible reason why a cat may be aggressive.
Socialization Issue - Often cats that have been raised in a single pet environment will have anxieties when introduced into an environment with other cats.If this is the reason your cat is very aggressive around other cats then usually the anxiety will subside after a while and the aggression of one cat will eventually stop, however the more aggressive cat will obviously be the more dominate feline in the home.
Territorial - When you introduce cats from different environments into one living situation you will find that cats are very territorial and when there space is infringed upon by another cat they become treated, thus causing one cat to be more aggressive than the other.Territorial aggression is also very common in male cats that have not been spayed, which can cause over aggression.
Too Much Aggressive Play - Sometimes as owners we don’t understand that cats play very aggressively, part of their aggressive playing consist of chasing, biting and clawing. If you feed into this type of playful folly, this can create a playful aggression that appears to be over aggression and dominates in your cat. Where this may seem that your cat is very aggression it could be that he/she is simply trying to play.
While there are a number of reasons why your cat may be aggressive and typically over time some of the more common reasons such as territorial or aggressive playing will subside and both cats will be able to coexist. But in more extreme cases your cat may need medications to calm them down or to help adjust certain behaviors.You may want to consult with a veterinarian of more information on specific mediations that will help with aggression. In some cases the following conditions may be alleviated:

If your cat has a spraying problems that most often attributes to aggression.
Acclimating both kittens and adult cats to new and potentially threatening environments.

While there are a number of possible treatments that you could use to help your cat adjust to new environments and/or new cats; you should always consult with a veterinarian on other possible methods of available to you and your cat.Also you want to try and help clam the situation as much as possible especially when there’s a certain level of anxiety between your cats and use prescribe medication as your last resort.
