:I have 2 kittens, both males, who are 8 months old. They have always been active, as kittens are, and that's always been part of why I enjoy them as much as I do. But lately, during the night...they are DESTROYING my apartment. Doing things that they'd never do during the day. Knocking things off tables and shelves, and they have broken many things. These guys never bother with any of these things during the day.
:Is there anything I can do?

:Also, lately, they have been trying to mate with each other and howl at unbelievable levels. Dont they know that they're both male? lol

:Thanks for your help!

Are they fixed? If not, it's probably about time to do it. I would think it may be a little bit of territorial thing, and you don't want them to turn this into spraying all over your house. While rambunctious kittens won't change much in personality after the surgery (with my AMPLE experience of ONE crazy kitten), some of those weird behaviors may wane. Also, everytime you see them do that (in your bedroom for instance, even if it's in the middle of the night) spray them with water or make a noise that will startle them. They may learn not to be so mischievous again (My NEW lamps are still intact)...Good luck.
