I have a male neutered cat (about six), who tends to be pretty high energy, sociable, playful, and a little wild (will hunt, occasionally plays too rough or gets moody and bites). I also have a lazy overweight female neutered cat (about eight) who haaaates him, because he always will try to annoy her and she hates moving. He likes to randomly tackle her and bite her in the back of the neck, and she gets mad and hisses, spits, swats, whatever.

We thought the male cat just played aggressively, or maybe even had some weird dominance thing - though he's never once hissed at her, he does have that slightly wild streak.

Found out that he's actually "mounting" her. Sexually, minus the whole dick part. I did not know neutered cats did that. Explains why female cat gets so pissed at him, but I'm at a loss about how to stop him from doing it.

One of my sister's cats did that to another of her cats. I don't know how my sister solved it. The female (who was several years older) has since died of old age, and the male now humps stuffed animals.

Lol. My cat definitely doesn't hump anything, it only seems to be this motion of jumping on the female cat and biting her neck that he does. I have no idea if he's just a higher testosterone neutered cat or what, but none of his other behavior reads as sexual to me.

Huh. My older male cat does that to my younger male cat, and they're both neutered. The older cat does this weird thing with his hind legs at the same time, like he's trying to step on the younger (and bigger cat).

It hasn't happened in a while (maybe because the younger one is literally twice the size of the older one), but it always weirded me out, so whenever I saw it happen, I would clap my hands loudly to scare the older cat away.

ayrt ha, yeah, my female cat is really fat (she's on a long-lasting diet that doesn't seem to work, she just hates moving) and is about a third bigger than my male cat.

I read that you could get "male" pheromones or something that you can spray on your female cat to make the male cat stop mounting her, but it also sounds like male cats will do it to other male cats, too, so who knows.

Well, you can't actually stop him from wanting to do it. You can scruff him when he tries it and tell him no or physically separate them, which might curb some of the behaviour if he's the kind of cat who responds to that.

The alternative is, of course, spraying him with water. That's pretty much instantly effective. Catch is, you have to be waiting with a water bottle for that to happen.

There was a (small, young) neighbours cat that used to do that to my (large, fat) neutered tom.

It was the damnedest thing - my cat would be all 'I'm not sure where you're going with this, little buddy' and the other would be all 'I seem to be missing a step, when do the fireworks and balloons turn up?' and then I'd pry him off and they'd go back to chasing each other around the yard.

I have no advice on how to stop it, however.

Water pistol worked a charm (on my bunnies).

Teach him about consent. Damn rape culture.
seriously, why do you think you have to stop him even though you didn't before? It's normal cat behavior ffs.
