Saturday Night at the Fights

[okpik]

All day yesterday Yona my young female instigated and her and Loki fought viscously and I cannot seem to indicate why. No bones or treats being fought over no food anger. I don't know what to do other than keep them seperate. Any suggestions? There has been blood drawn and I'm worried

You said Yona is a young female. Is Loki also female? If so, it sounds like a dominance fight. Yona is growing up and is now challenging Loki's leader status.

No, Yona is a year and a half old Female and Loki is a two year old male.
They have been together for over a year and have only played but never fought like this. She has been taunting him for another day and we have been just keeping an eye out.

who knows why? But I would be "on top" of Yona and stopping it before it happens , I would also keep them separated especially when you cannot supervise..

You might consider a good vet check up with blood work, maybe she's got somethign medically going on.
