"Have you ever worried if the play between your cats was getting too rough? A
new study published in Scientific Reports has investigated play and fighting
in cats.

Their aim was to use simple behaviours anyone could observe to work out what
was play and what might lead to fights. This is important because the
consequences of fights include injuries to animals and humans. At worst, you
may even have to rehome one of your cats if they’re not getting along."
