My cat always get picked on by the other cats! What should I do?
I have three cats, and my one cat is always getting picked on by the other cats. She is not the youngest, but she’s also not the oldest.
Whenever I see her getting pushed off the chair, or just getting pushed around, I always tell the other cat no, and shoo them away.
She also eats last, and we only have two cat bowls, so we put a pile of food next to the other food bowls so she can eat, she also doesn’t like to eat out of the food bowls.
Should I just leave them alone, or do something about it, and what should I do?

It sounds like the youngest is a male, and the oldest is just asserting his/her dominance as head of the cat family/group. Even though you may feel like giving her extra attention (lap privileges or petting or treats), that could in fact give her extra unwanted attention by the other cats. I have two females like that, and two younger females seem to headed in that direction. I don\\\’t think there is any way to \\\’fix\\\’ it. Shooing the others away only works for one or two minutes, and if she gets the feeling that the other cat\\\’s rules don\\\’t matter, violating their rules could draw their ire when you are not there. I think it is better to let them establish their own rules.

My two young females sometimes seem to be tomboys, becoming aggressive against all the others. If your middle cat is already being picked on by the oldest, she is a ready target for the young feisty female. The oldest is simply asserting/reinforcing her dominance. If the middle one accepts this dominance, things should be peaceful, at least until the youngest pushes things too far. Let things develop naturally.

Defend your cat, slowly introduce her to the others and never make the other cat\\\’s fell bad but you cannot allow any sort of abuse to cat\\\’s to be allowed so observe and when they start try to take her away for just a little bit and limit away time. A play date might work, try to make the other cat\\\’s realize that she\\\’s just like them and deserves to be treated the right way. (Cat\\\’s are smart, it probably wont take long). And always remember, whenever a cat is being harm it is your duty as a being of the universe to defend god\’s most perfect creatures (Cat\’s!).
