Trying to dominate my cat maybe?

[Bellamay]

Sooooooo my baby Clio is almost 4 months so in another month and a bit I can get her spayed! Until then I’m having a big of an issue. She spends a good amount of time on my bed with me cuddling, playing ect as my appendix burst. She’s been a treasure to have and I don’t no how I would be recovering if she wasn’t here to keep my spirits high! But there’s one thing, my other baby Sampson a 13 year young beautiful ginger cat also loves being with me. He is fine being around her And they even play sometimes (she chases him, he chases her sort of thing.) but when he’s on the bed with me she seems to get so dominant. She licks him first (which should be a good thing) but then she physically throws her self on him trying to hold him down of sorts and putting her body weight on his neck. He is pretty good with handling it but I’m worried he will turn around and hurt her. Will this behaviour stop when she’s spayed? I don’t want to keep her off the bed because of this but I can’t exile my old man to sleep somewhere else help me with my seemingly overly dominant bunny! ???

Hope you feel a lot better soon and get a reply which helps. I am a novice bunny owner myself and so can’t really give advice. The only thing I could think of was perhaps until she’s spayed, to put Clio on a bunny harness with a loose leash so she can move around on the bed with you but kept slightly away from your cat (who sounds like a sweet old gentleman). But that may be completely wrong and I’m sure someone with more knowledge will let you know. Good luck and get well soon x
