The vet said it was a power struggle. Miss Laidback and doesn't care is Queen, she was here first and Miss Meanie knows that, she was #2.... well little Mr Doggie came along, is male, is small, and apparently has a face that looks like a giant target. The vet said that Miss Meanie is establishing where he fits into the food chain, which led Mr Doggie to try and mark everything in sight to say "I live here too...don't kill me!". It was at that point that Mr Doggie lost his, ummm, dangly bits and Miss Meanie discovered a ground up pill in her favorite wet food. LoL
We've come to somewhat of an agreement with who fits in where now. Mr Doggie stays with kiddo in the basement, my girls follow me around. If Miss Meanie gets too aggressive, then she gets drugged up. She's down to 1 or 2 days every couple of weeks having to be on kitty downers. It's funny when she is doped up to watch her try to be all loving on Mr Doggie, and Mr Doggie shaking in his fur going "What's wrong with her, why is she being nice, OMG OMG Danger! Danger!"

I have 3 girls that pretty much have their pecking order. The Queen herself waves her hand in the air and growls when the lesser ones get in her space. It cracks me up. It's like she is saying "Talk to the hand." Then when our male showed up... well, you can imagine.

I've had a few issues with Miss Meanie trying to overthrow the Queen Miss Laidback. I had to help set that straight since Miss Meanie seems to think she's such a bad ass that she can do anything she wants. I gave Miss Meanie her own space close to me (the whole power struggle is over being close to me), but make sure to keep her out of Miss Laidback's spot. There are now fewer fights over the chair that has always been Miss Laidbacks.
Miss Meanie got her own pillow to sleep next to me at night and Miss Laidback Queen wasn't thrown out of her spot or off her pillow. I didn't enjoy waking up to a cat fight happening literally, ON TOP of me.
