There both about 7 months old now, unspayed and one of them (Tilly) keeps mounting the other(Poppy). Poppy runs away from her every time looking kinda scared but shes ok. They do both get along really well (grooming and sleeping together there not from the same litter but have always been together. I know this can be a dominance thing but is there anyway of stopping this besides getting them spayed? Also Tilly has recntly become quite frightened of me and has been nipping a bit.

Thanks :)
 
I would say it is a dominance thing. I would suggest getting them spayed as they will be less likely to develop problems that unspayed does get, and it will also settle their hormones which leads to the dominance thing. I don't really know what else you can do other than keeping them separate.
