in an effort to establish territorial rights. I hope it didn't result in a nasty fight.

Major intimidation, and the other cat didn't want to accept the "I'm Mr. Top Cat" shtick.

he's fixed and an inside only cat, so whenever a wandering kitty comes around the door, he is very interested. he had a visitor yesterday, and he's been calling and looking for him today. he'd love to be outside playing with his kitty friends, but it's not safe for him. the last time he was outside, he got sick and it cost me nearly $500 at the vet. no more outside...

The white and yellow kitty does have an exceptional vocal range, though.

That's why the black one is growling with her ears back. This isn't "talking". It's agitation

Just a lot of bluster from what I can interpret of cat language.

The orange and white one has an astonishingly expressive vocal rang.

terrifying me and I will lash out with violence if you get too close."

The other cat seems to have been socialized by people and doesn't know how to relate to the other cat very well.

The black cat is the junior cat in the house--the talker is the senior, only the talker isn't particularly mean or threatening--just a bit ... intrusive...!
