hi all
over the past 2 days Heidi has been aggressive to all of us (me,hubby,2 kids)
she has been running around scratching us when we are just sitting watching tv and yesterday was the final straw
she started hissing at us when we came home and then went for my son (3) as he walked past her to go to his room she hissed and lashed out arched back etc then as he went into his room she tried to follow but hubby seen this and chased her away from him.
we kept her in my daughters room over night as she sleeps under her bed and my daughter had to sleep in with us.
today shes a little more normal but still wont come near us.
i was determind to take her to the local shelter after what she done yesterday but im not so sure now.
the kids all have scratches over there hands arms and faces where she has caught them i have one on my finger which is still healing after 5 days it was quite deep.
what am i to do with her i dont want to prolong her comfort zone here in the house if she is going to attack the kids all the time when she feels like it. after all i got her because we wanted a family pet that the kids could interact with and shes just not like this.
help anyone please
