Why does my male cat try to have sex with our other male cat?


This type of activity is common throughout the animal kingdom and is completely normal. Homosexual tendencies persist in many species and are thought to be hormonal in nature. Studies have revealed that rats deprived of certain hormones at birth, or given them to excess, will exhibit sexual behavior not unlike that of the opposite sex. A male cat in heat may be so hormonally active it is not interested in the gender of its partner so long as it can perform its biological duty.

There is also some evidence to support the theory that this type of behavior helps animals establish a pecking order. One will attempt to "mount" another in an effort to establish dominance, thereby pinning it into submission. The sexual act is often left undone as the point is rather quickly made.

There are also known cases of animals actually being "gay," where male<b> cats </font></b>will back up into other male<b> cats </font></b>as though they are in estrus. The heterosexual partner may then elect to mount the gay partner, confused, but willing to oblige.

Humans are the only ones in the animal kingdom that have sex, none of the rest of the animals do. What you're noticing is the typical act of domination among them. They have to establish the pack order.
I'm not sure where you've got your info, but it's far from truth...

WITHOUT PASSION LIFE IS NOTHING
