Kaye,
That aggression may not go away completely, though it should be
lessened a bit. I have all (ex) boys, and some are more agressive than
others. All of them are sweet when they feel like it. It really
depends on the individual.
Some of mine will "attack" when they want attention. You might be
seeing some of that.
Flying objects seem to catch their attention, but unless it's a fun
toy, too, it won't keep them occupied. (I guess books are just too
boring. :-))
But mostly, you have to give his body time to adjust. That's what most
of that six weeks is about. The vet removed the major source of the
male hormones, but they're still circulating in his body and will need
some time to clear out. His endocrine system needs time to adjust to
the change, and it's even possible he might get temporarily more
aggressive or moody until his hormones re-balance themselves. Just
give him time - he'll settle down soon.
