I have a young male cat that was recently neutered. Since the
operation, his mother won't go near him, and is very agressive when in
his presence. Before the operation, they were best pals, sleeping
together and playing all day long. The mother was very nurturing and
took good care of him. As a matter of fact, they were bonded so
strongly that this one kitten was kept with her after giving away the
others. Now the mom has to be kept outside most of the time to prevent
them from fighting. I've heard that there are different hormones or
something present after the operation, but didn't realize that this
kind of behavior could go on for so long - it's been months now. Please
help, if anyone has experienced something similar - my Vet really
doesn't have any solutions.
Thanks.

Is the mother neutered as well? It is natural at some point for mothers to
reject their offspring no matter how close they once were. If they are both
neutered they will most likely get over the fighting eventually.

The mother-cat was spayed a short while before the baby was neutered.
The behavioral change was immediate following the neutering. Everyone
says it shouldn't have lasted this long, but the problem remains - the
mother absolutely hates the kitten and starts trouble whenever she sees
him.

mostly those problems are caused by other smelling -from desinfecting
product- of the neutered cat, you can rub the neutered cat in with
"felifriend" (a pheromone-product that will let the mother get a better
smell again)

if she was recently neutered, she might be smelling him and associating that
with the experience.
Separate out the two. Give them both baths, reintroduce them in a neutral
territory (the living room?) with either play or food.
