You should start by socializing your cat and making it more familiar with other animals in order to build a healthy fear response. When the animal comes too close to your cat or shows any sign of aggression, you should immediately use firmer tones and physically move the other animal away. Additionally, you can introduce some form of deterrent such as water sprays or sprinkles of citronella so that the cats know they may face some sort of consequence if they do not listen.

The best way to train your cat to be more aggressive towards other animals is to reward it when it shows signs of aggression, such as hissing or growling. You can also try positive reinforcement with treats and praise when the cat shows signs of defensive behavior or claws/bites another animal. Make sure to never punish or reprimand the cat for displaying aggressive behavior, as this can negate any training you have done and even make the cat fearful of you.
