Question
why does a male cat hump another male cat

Answer
Hi Betty,

It's a domination issue. It has nothing to do with sex. The cat on top is showing the one under that he is the main cat and that he can do anything he wants. The one under is submitting to the Alpha cat. You don't see this behavior too much in neutered males. Hope this answer helped you.

Ciao, Karen
