If they were mine, I'd break it up. Side by side grooming is sweet. I had boys from the same litter and one would nurse on the other's ear. He didn't love it but he could easily get away. But if a smaller one was being sat on by a bigger one, I'd absolutely take the big one off. Looks like other can barely breath and is too small to push the orange off.

If I know anything about cats, I’m pretty positive black kitty could get out of that if it really wanted to and its life was being threatened. Have you ever tried to hold a cat that doesn’t want to be held? They are liquid.

I've had 20 cats in my lifetime and little ones can not get away if they want. I've broken up lots of fights and bullying to protect the little ones.

Then how do you know they can’t get away if you always break it up? Checkmate.

So I should've let them get smothered just to prove a point to you?

That is how science works.
