    Bringing a second cat into the home.

    Unfortunately it's not going as well as I had hoped. Malachi and Leo both seem to want to meet each other and make friends but when they meet face to face, Malachi becomes quite aggressive and hisses and complains loudly. Malachi will even take swipes at Leo, and the last time they met when...

    Bringing a second cat into the home.

    Thank you for the advice everyone. The new cat, Leo, is currently lounging about my front room while Malachi hisses and complains. Leo's very calm though, he came out of his box and immediately made himself at home; Malachi hid under my bed for two days before he came out to look around...

    Bringing a second cat into the home.

    Mostly I just want another cat. I love animals and I love the idea of having another cat. Malachi seems a bit restless too. When a cat meows on TV or something he starts looking around and whining. A lot of the research I've read too says that cats usually do better with a companion instead of...

    Bringing a second cat into the home.

    I've been thinking about getting a second cat as another companion for myself and my year and a half old short hair Malachi. I've been doing some research on how to safely and properly bring a second cat into the home so it gets along with the first cat. However, the best method I found, which...

    Cat hates my guitar

    Is your guitar electric or acoustic? If acoustic, and you treat the wood with the right guitar body products (which you should ), the smells of the product you're using might be disturbing them. Of course, electric guitar fretboards should be treated properly too, so if it's electric it may...

    Random biting when cuddling?

    My cat Malachi, like most cats, likes to sit in my Father's lap and get pets and cuddles. Sometimes, however, he gets random bouts of aggression during this. During one, when my Father was just gently stroking his side and Malachi was purring happily, Malachi jumped down, hissed at my Father...

    Cat becoming less affectionate?

    We've had Malachi since about late April. He was about 6 months old when we got him and his estimated date of birth places his birthday some time in October. He used to be very affectionate and would jump into your lap and crawl onto your chest for cuddles but has stopped doing that recently. He...

    My cat is actually a small child.

    Okay, thanks for the advice all. Hopefully a more audible approach will stop Malachi from running away to avoid being scruffed.

    My cat is actually a small child.

    My 8 month old kitten, Malachi, came to us from an adoption agency a little aggressive. He tends to bite and claw when playing or excited and we've tried to eliminate this behaviour by scruffing him, spraying him with a water bottle, or shaking a can full of dried beans. However, he has not...
