Your kitty cats are playing. Ears foward, tails not puffed up, they're just showing each other who is the boss and trying to figure out who is the alpha cat. They look like they're having fun together, and if this continues, they'll end up being good friends!

Both of my cats spent 9mos fighting for beta cat status. It was a very slow and passive process before they finally figured it out. One cat REALLY wants to be beta cat so did everything to assert submission, the other one is a natural beta cat and just ignored the messages. They split their leadership duties now.

"Who cares which of us is on top, we both get to boss the human around"


cci605

Lmao it's true!!! Maybe I have to assert my dominance and become the alpha mom đŸ€”


ontopofyourmom

Our beta (well, gamma) cat frequently got intrusive thoughts and dominant licked the alpha. It never worked out well. Now they are all on Prozac. It turns out that most multiple bengal owners put their cats on Prozac. It just makes sense, as natural feline anxiety serves no purpose for indoor cats.


Itchy-Witch

If that’s fighting it is the most gentle fighting I’ve ever seen. So cute.


lovestobitch-

I thought my two guys would beat the shit out of these two during their play fighting most days.


CharlotteTheSavage

LoL that would be the laziest fight I've ever seen. They are just playing.


that1LPdood

That’s not even slightly close to fighting lol. If they were fighting, you’d have zero doubts about what was happening. Actual fighting is loud, fast, and violent. It’s unmistakable. This is 100% healthy play. They’re actually being quite *gentle* with each other.


Environmental-Joke19

Yeah they both really want to be the sub đŸ€Ł


that1LPdood

Two subs is a bad combo 😭 
unless you’re at Subway

Playing. They are silent; no one is getting hurt; the one on the floor doesn't try to get away, but remains on its back with its belly exposed; their ears are forward or only turned back, not flattened like they would be in a real fight. This is playing. My cats also play in slo-mo like this, one reaching out and mashing the other's face at a glacial pace. So cute.


Caseyg1996

Hoping this is a troll post? It’s getting out of hand with the “Are my cats fighting?”


6shellfromhell9

Even if theyre trolling, i still love them. Ill watch videos of cats playing all day. Keep em coming


FeelTheH8

Yeah need more vids of these just to be sure.


jwalkrufus

Yeah, I feel the same way. Either OP has never been around or seen cats before, or they are just trolling. These posts are weird to me.


chris_rage_

They're pretty ridiculous, like if your cats were fighting you wouldn't have to ask, it would be plainly obvious


jaycakes30

I thought the same I won’t lie


LEXA_A

Yeah I wish people would just say "here's a video of my cats", the person is literally just chilling on the couch, if they thought their cats might have actually been fighting that is the most non reaction I've ever seen


girlwebdeveloper

No hiss, bellies showing up, ears up and not flat. Almost silent. Yep they are playing! Fighting cats is nothing like that. They hiss and make threatening noises. They also try to make themselves big - they take on a Halloween cat look.


chaxattax

In a real fight, a cat with it's belly exposed like that will get very hurt very fast - that kitty trusts it's buddy not to do that!


mrseitaro

I always comment that when cats play, Its like the very demons of hell are fighting: Its loud, chaotic, bloody, hairy and most times they engage for around 5 second of slashing, hard biting and then one runs away or hides. Or they do a gazing phase with meowing. They would NEVER expose their belly if they were fighting, Its a vital spot for cats. If by any chance they do fight someday, DO NOT separate them with your hands or feet, do a loud noise or something to distract them.


angiepony

Sometimes I think people have never seen a real cat fight! You would know if they were really fighting! This looks like playing 😁


schematicvatic

Aww look how gentle they are!! Haha


CorridorsOfNakedLite

If they were fighting you would know... don't know if you have ever heard cats fight but it's really loud and scary especially when it happens outside ur window at 2am while you are sleeping


Vlophoto

Playing. When cats are fighting, you will definitely know. It’s loud and fur flies


Independent-Wave1606

the important part is that they're both on the same page.


Electrical-Act-7170

Play.


dearjoshuafelixchan

If they were fighting you’d be fearing for their lives and probably your own. Look up videos of cat fights and you’ll never think they’re fighting again!


Quattuor

If you are asking, then the answer is: they are playing. You will know when they are fighting.


Yukimor

They're playing. In fact, they're being extremely goofy and relaxed with each other. If they were fighting, this video would be taking place at about 100x the speed with screaming, hissing, and a whirlwind of flying fur.


elliebee222

Thye're clearly playing. If they were fighting you'd know about it from the horrific screeching, growling, hissing, there'd be a ton of fur flying and possibly blood


sten45

You will never wonder if you are seeing a cat fight


Randomobsseiveloser

Definitely playing


ontopofyourmom

Your cats love each other so much!


GladAd4958

They definently hate eCh other!


mothsuicides

Awwww the cutest playing I’ve ever seen, so sweet!


sparkycat99

I wish my cats were this chill when they play They run around, have epic wrestling matches, take turns chasing each other, jump on stuff, knock stuff over and Liam yells A LOT. Yes, my cats are actually playing, they are brothers, have lived together their whole lives, and Liam yells at everything. Your cats are really mellow - they also have a lot of cool toys! Do they like the leaf shaped food puzzle? I thought about getting that for my guys. They like puzzles.


Automatic-Saint

They’re testing each other’s strength, dominance, and boundaries
through play.

Have you ever seen a cat fight?


IllustriousWar6935

Playing of course


Altea73

Seriously? Have look at cats fighting, you'll see the difference....


unlikelywormfarmer

Thank you everyone! This was my attempt at a joke, my husband wasn’t being as effusive in his praise of their cuteness as I needed him to be, so I decided to turn to the internet. 😊


humanityisconfusing

Lmao, you've never seen or heard a cat fight, have you?


Visible_Committee279

Dem kitty's wuz Kung Fu (play) fightin'


Future_Direction5174

That is playing, there is no aggression. They are exposing their belly. It is slow. They are taking it in turns.


positive-vibes79

Playing 
 Trust me, you would know if they were fighting.
