Our cat Moosie being attacked by his brother. Help! We have 7 cats & just moved into new house.?

Moosie has always been the ';weanie'; of the group and often picked on by a couple of the other cats. They are all indoor cats and we are in coyote territory, so they have to remain indoors. Since the move, there have been a few serious incidents of attack, mainly by his brother Freddie. Right now we are isolating Moosie in one room to protect him, but he is very unhappy. We have never been able to pick him up or hold him as he was born ferral and was traumatized early on. We want to let him out of isolation, but are afraid he will be attacked again. We are using Feliway spray %26amp; diffusers. Any suggestions on addressing the aggressive behavior of the other cats are welcome!!Our cat Moosie being attacked by his brother. Help!

Because you moved into a new house, the cats have to find their new territories. Let them work this out on their own. They will all be fine.Our cat Moosie being attacked by his brother. Help! We have 7 cats %26amp; just moved into new house.?
my cats do the same thing its been three years and the brothers are still fighting. If there male cats they are trying to be dominat and if there females they are trying to defend themselves.
Sounds like Freddie is trying to Dominate Moosie (cute name btw). Try getting an alternate litter box for Moosie and keeping it away from Freddie's. Some times cats are really particular about litter boxes and territory if they want to be top on the totem pole.
If I was you, I'd let Moosie out and isolate Freddie. Isolation is punishment for animals, why punish the one whos being attacked, and let the attacker be free? Eventually they'll stop fighting so much, just give it some time.
You might try isolating Freddie instead of Moosie. If you can put a couple drops of vinella on each of their hind ends close to the base of the tail. That will help equalize their scents. Maybe put it on all the cats. It is probably an emotional outbreak due to the change. Also, if you can get Freddie to sleep on a towel or small blanket and then rub Moosie with it after Freddie has used it long enough to leave his scent on it. You can also keep a spray bottle of water and spray Freddie when you see he is heading towards Moosie. Don't squirt poor Moosie or he will be even more traumatized. Hope this helps. I think you are wonderful people for keeping these cats indoor and rescuing them. We need more people like you.
