Male #cheetahs and #lions sometimes form bonded groups known as coalitions - I wonder if this is also not that uncommon amongst domestic tom #cats but has gone unnoticed?
I've seen quite a few toms in my garden (and also a Facebook video from a lady who had an entire cat gang in her garden) where they aren't fighting for the territory but not only coexisting together but showing signs of friendship (and do not appear to be litter mates or all from the same house)
these two regularly visit my garden, and seem to patrol as a pair (the ginger cat is friendly and lets me pet him, the ginger and white one runs away but has been getting closer recently
