So my original cat, Luna, is 1 year old. I rescued her when she was 2 weeks old so she doesn't really know anyone besides the family & dog. when guests come over she hides, hisses, growls, scratches, out of fear. she does her own thing, isn't affectionate, which upsets me because I saved her...
I have a three month old kitten that I rescued when I found her mother dead. I brought her into the vet for the first time since she was less than a month old. She used to be so great with new places and animals but now she hisses and growls and spits in fear away from them.
Given her already...
she used to follow me everywhere and sleep on my bed and one day I missed a night at home and ever since then it's like she completely did a 180. it makes me so sad ;-;
Luna's about three months old now. aaaand ever since she was past the dying stage, she's distanced herself and totally hates me. constant biting, no affection anymore, never wants to be around me or touched. she was affectionate when I first brought her in and now it's like she's a totally...
I can't have another cat in the household permanently. What is everyone's opinions on briefly fostering another cat instead? will there be separation and bonding issues?
Got her from a friend who found the mother dead. Interested to know how she may look when she's older and know some kind of origin! The mother and fathers breed is unknown. Interested to know specifics like korat, Persian, Balinese, color point shorthair, Siamese, etc.. not so much the colouring...
will put the bottle away! only used a few times out of desperateness. I'm trying to remember to just redirect the energy, so yes, lots of toys around. consistency is such a pain ;-;
(side note, Luna is about 7 weeks now)
I wanted to say thank you for everyone and their help. Luna is doing amazing, grown so much, and is an active healthy kitten. I couldn't imagine what would have happened to her without your support. when I brought her back to the vet a few weeks later, they were surprised, saying they were sure...
it's not that she dislikes me either, she follows me around the house and mews for me if she can't see me. jumps on my bed every night and sleeps beside me. sleeps on me when she naps during the day.
I have a 7 week old kitten that I rescued when she was 3 weeks. Whenever I pet her she turns on her back and starts to bite and scratch, she'll pounce on my face if I hiss at her. She'll wake me up in the mornings by biting my cheeks, chin, and nose. She'll even be purring and biting/ scratching...
she took a spill last night, fell off the bottom of the banister 6 feet down to the basement. someone was on the other side makin sure she didn't fall but she suddenly pounced on him and fell through, clipping and clinging to his lip (and failed) on the way down. hit her leg on the bottom step...
