Your right. I did answer my own post wayyyy early on. I realized it was mis directed aggression why my cat's BEHAVIOR changed to my other cat. There is no doubt I worried about another cat potentially being involved BECAUSE they were outside. But the issue was how to get them loving...

Xactly. You may not like "our" reply. The issue was never declaw or outside. The issue was mis-directed aggression. My "defense" was jut to bring certain posters back to the issue. It really isn't an issue anymore as it was never about being in backyard it was about how my cats were...

Hissy, as I said I appreciate your sentimate but please don't "lecture" me on how I raise my cats and the pros/cons of letting declaws outside. I don't need anyone's RULES to post on a forum. I have my own opinions about my cats welfare and don't expect other people to raise their cats...

I appreciate the advice about the potential bites..and I will head them. I already checked once and no marks. He is a short hair so it is somewhat easier than a long hair cat. I also can appreicate the posters sentiment about letting them out although it is not the best case scenario...

Unfortunately I know my vet and he will do nothing he can't physically see as a problem. T has no injuries I can see. When Fazool leaves the room and he no longer feels threatened he lightens up and plays like usual. THAT is why I don't think this is anything more than mental. The issue is...

Hi all, I am new. I hope someone out there has either experienced my issue or can shed some light to what they "think" is the issue. I have a 5yr. old male, neutered cat. I recently adopted a 10mon old neutered, all black cat for his company. Needless to say within a couple HOURS they were...
