Today, I learned the hisses of my 3 cats so I can tell who starts the fights. FML

Cat Fight

Happy Caturday
Today, my cats started fighting again. Normally, I let them, because it's the only exercise they get. But this time one of my cats sliced the other's nose, and he responded by pinning her and nearly choking her to death. When I ran in to stop them, they teamed up against me. Ah, somethin' don't feel too good… FML

The Lovecats
Today, my two cats, who I'm slowly easing into being together, seem to like the fight they had yesterday. My older cat goes to my new cat's room to mew until I open the door, then lunges at my new cat, and my new cat goes to the barrier until he sees my old cat, and they start their shenanigans again.

The cliché
Today, I realised that I can tell my 6 cats apart by the sound of their paws on the carpet. I think I need friends. FML

Caturday surprise
Today, there are two cats in my basement that won't stop fighting. Loudly. I'm trying to sleep, if you don't mind. FML

Work together!
Today, our cats got in a serious fight about the rights to some prime mousing territory. The territory in question? Our kitchen. FML

Jackson Galaxy moment
Today, I meowed at my cat and he got really close to me. I then meowed again and he punched me in the face. Them's fightin' words, it seems. FML

Happy Fourth of July
Today, I tried to comfort my cats from fireworks. Problem is, I also have really sensitive hearing, so fireworks are distressing to me as well. My cats didn't take kindly to me being distressed and just became more irritable. They took their irritability out on me. Now I look like I fought a bear or something. FML

Today, I found out that both of my cats are afraid of mice. So far I've seen them run and hide from 3 different mice who've recently invaded my apartment. FML

Also great baby name suggestions
Today, my boyfriend has trained my three cats to respond to "Fart Cat", "Little Shit", and "Lumpy Butt" as well as their actual names. I'd be less annoyed if all three didn't adore him and sit on his lap every day. FML

Cat fight
Today, we got a new kitten, and my older cat is not happy. I just learned that my fiance doesn't interfere when they fight. He says watching my old fat cat chase the kitten is the funniest thing he's seen all month. FML

Create your own hiss to break up the fight

Hi all, OP here! First, all the comments I've read have been really funny, thank you for taking the time to comment(: They're not actually all my cats, 1 is my sisters, named Abby, and the other 2 are family cats. We got Abby last Xmas, she's about the same age as Roxy(11 year old girl) and obviously much older than Jinx(4 year old boy). In the beginning Abby was always the instigator, wanting to be the dominant cat, and Roxy and Jinx only ran away. Now they all start fights. We're thinking about locking Abby back in my sisters room because they have drawn blood, and it's just getting very difficult to deal with

Oh and to clear this up, the FML isn't that I learned their hisses, it's that they fight so much ;p

Whew, no fun for you guys or for the cats. You might try something like Feliway or other cat calmants. You might also try separating their feeding areas and/or litter boxes farther than whatever you've already done. You could also ask your vet for other suggestions to help reduce their fighting.

Yikes, my cats usually just ignore each other. They'll occasionally swipe at each other or hiss but that's it.

I have 5 cats and I also know their meowing and hissing. It's really useful.

Aah, that's not neccessarily a bad thing :) I can tell my cat's growl, she has a very distinctive one that rises and falls in pitch slowly. It's quite useful actually, as I've heard her growling outside before, and can let her in before she gets annoyed at the neighbour's cat. Fellow crazy cat person hug? Just think of it as you being a great owner who knows their cats individually, and has good hearing ;)

Isn't this a skill every cat owner has? Haha I can tell which one of mine is starting shit. We have four and unfortunately three of them all gang up and beat up our oldest female for some reason.

Know that boat, lol! I know all 3 of my cats (2 two year old boys and a 15 yr old girl) hisses, meows, weird play noises, piss smell, and paws step sounds. I've also made up a noise to call them/get attention and another one for if they are doing something 'bad' like licking the dishes or stealing one another's food. No shame, and the correct cat takes the blame. :) x
