A little update for y'all! So its been a few hours and Bubba (I realized I forgot to mention his name earlier) has been amazing! Absolutely zero aggression, zero biting or attacking ever since I scruffed him. We played some more and he's getting back to his old self. He was pushing his head into...
Thank you for the cat wheel suggestion! I think I'll be ordering one from that website. A few questions though- was it easy for you to get your cat to use it and how did you convince them to start using it? He is a little wary of unstable/moving surfaces. Also have you ever used the cat cubes...
Thank you for the reassurance and the suggestion. I've never heard of a cat wheel before but after looking into them they look really interesting. It looks like the perfect way for him to get more exercise and I think I'll be buying one for him!
Thank you for your advice! I try to squeeze in longer playtime about once a week but I'm so busy and to be honest I don't think I can manage 3 hours every day. I did try it today though and played with him for a little over 2 hours straight. He was tired after but about 15 minutes later he...
Wow thank you for this! I tried this today and it definitely works! At first I was hesitant to do it because he always gets more aggressive when I tried to defend myself and because I felt so weird hissing at him haha. After I did it the first time he did try to jump and bite me again, but after...
Ok so after he attacked me the first time today, I had the water sitting there and dumped it on his back. He immediately jumped away and started cleaning himself up, but then he attacked me again as soon as he was done. I didn't have any more water next to me, so I tried what somebody else...
Nope. I played with him for two hours straight today, he was chasing it all around the house and getting super tired, but 15 minutes after we stopped playing he attacked me again.
Sorry it didn't end up working for you and your cat but I'm glad everything turned out ok for her. It's just crazy to me because he hasn't always been this way. I've had him since he was a baby and he used to be the sweetest thing ever and I feel like that part of him is still inside him. Even...
Thanks for your reply! You're right, he doesn't growl, hiss or swat. In fact, I don't think I have ever heard him growl or hiss in his entire life. I think you might be right that he is playing but doesn't understand how to play appropriately. He gets so worked up when we're playing with toys...
Weirdly enough, he doesn't mind being picked up or touched at all. He just kinda goes limp and lets me hold him and looks around. I think he likes being high up haha. He has never once bitten me or even reacted aggressively when I pick him up, and if he is tired of being petted the most he's...
Thank you so much for your advice! I just ordered some Feliway so I'll update if that ends up working! Hopefully that might help him. I've actually been wanting to get him a friend for the longest time and I definitely think he was under socialized as a kitten. Unfortunately the other members of...
Hi y’all. I am seriously considering giving my cat away. I really don’t know what to do anymore. Please help me. I love him and I would do anything for him but I just feel like I have no other choice right now. What can I do to stop his aggression?
Some background on him. He is a little over 1...
