    Won’t stop attacking me…

    I already have two cats and the elder already dislikes him lol. If she would interact with him then maybe some of this could be avoided…if I could find the kickeroo ag then it may help.

    Won’t stop attacking me…

    Ya, I’ve done the gun before but at one point he just endured it. And I’m afraid I do toss him when he gets aggressive which might make it a game for him…but it’s to get him away. If I try and hold him by the scruff and release him after a bit, he tries to go for the kill agai.

    Won’t stop attacking me…

    So my cat of almost year (he’s 15 months) has had a bad habit of attacking me. While I at the start handled it poorly (and tbh still do) he has gotten better as he has gotten older. But he still will attack even if not as frequently…sort of. So now I can be sitting on my couch and just out of...

    Just refuse to get along…not sure what to do.

    Cept it’s an apartmen. Outside of the room the 1y sleeps in at night, the rest is hers. Think if I ever find a new job and move that might help

    Just refuse to get along…not sure what to do.

    I hope so. Beginning to think I show waited til the elder crossed the rainbow before getting another cat.

    Just refuse to get along…not sure what to do.

    How would that get them to get along? Would the elder be too old for that?

    Just refuse to get along…not sure what to do.

    Small cat tree. He’s a year now (4 months when I got him) and she just has a few spots she settles down in (behind couch, in close, though sometimes more open which I think he sees her but only really bothers he if she gets out or if she tries to react to his presense by hissing). Just after...

    Just refuse to get along…not sure what to do.

    Well…been going on for a year now. Things don’t feel like they’ve improved at all. He’s now a young adult with probably the slightly less energy of a kitten (he is acting more adult like though) but the older cat is now 13 and I hate for her last years to be of fear from another cat.

    Just refuse to get along…not sure what to do.

    Ok, so almost a year ago I got a kitten for a hopeful companion for my older cat. I started to do the slow intro methods but trouble stated right at the start when she saw me bring him in and later that week he had ran out of his room he was staying in when I went to feed him as the elder cat...

    Brushing issues

    Ok, so maybe in retrospect I should of tried to brush him last fall when he was still a kitten but my 1y old tries to attack by brush when I groom him or the hand mitten I have for brushing. He really does need brushed being a short hair but I’ve not had any hairball issues yet. How best to get...

    Does your cat cover their poop/pee?

    Glad I’m not the only one. My boy sometimes will cover and other times won’t. For the most part he’ll cover his pee but poop is very hit and is with him in his litter box. The other box that belongs to the elder cat seems to be more buried but it could just be her covering up for him.

    How to stop attacking

    Think I will try to start doing this with my boy too. He’ll just randomly attack my leg (knee is favorite target) and when petting just starts biting my hand. A firm no will get him to stop for a moment and then does a more aggressive bite. I’ll having a few toys next to me. When he reacts to...

    Hand attacking

    Went ahead and bought a Kickaroo to keep near me and let him play with too. If he tries to attack my hand I’ll have it close to toss for play instea. Hopefully he’ll forget about the hand...or associated attacking the hand with the to...

    Hand attacking

    Ok, so I have a 10 month old kitten who still, though not as often as he use to, still attacks my hand on occasion. As much as I want to show him off to my parent, it’s this main point that has prevented me from doing so. Ive tried no, which causes him to hesitate for a moment or two before...

    After 6 months older cat still not accepting kitten. At a loss...

    I hope so. Just would think after 6m she’d be a bit more use. Sadly as for high places I do lack but she does behind the couch and under my bed. Been tempted to get a large cat tree but $ for one is different story. I’ll look into the kickeroo though. And move feeding to the gate. Means leaving...

    After 6 months older cat still not accepting kitten. At a loss...

    I’m beginning to think getting a second cat was a mistake but one I have to live with (kitten too darn cute to give up). my issue being my elder cat (13y in a few months) just simply refuses to accept him. Part of it might be my fault. I didn’t get to do a grace period of introduction with toys...
