I imagine it's kind of like having a sibling

Beat the shit out of each other seemingly randomly, then immediately go back to licking each others ears.

I have 4 and they wrestle, but rarely fight. Fighting includes hissing and claws out, which only happens when one of them goes too far (usually the male, who is the biggest of the lot).

I do love that our smallest cat is picked on the least, because when another cat picks a fight with her, she never gives up. These wrestling matches are usually a minute or so, but she will hound and hunt them relentlessly for up to 2 hours after, long after it stopped being fun for the initiator. We call her the boss for a reason even though she is an adorable little fluffball.

Have two cats. Brother and sister. Yes. This is exactly what they do.

There is very much sometimes some good natured swatting and butt biting, and my favorite thing they do together is the happy stampede. I’ll be somewhere on the house and then just abruptly hear little feet clomping quickly through the halls. They chase each other back and forth, it’s like synchronized zoomies.

Best roommates you could ever ask to have.
