*sigh*
We got her last year kind of...spur of the moment. Her previous owners are related to my BF. He found out that they weren't feeding her and the guy was throwing her into walls and just being horrible to her. So we went and picked her up that day, or would have but they kicked her outside and didn't let her in so by the time we got there she was gone.
plus, she's declawed so we were freaked. We ended up finding her the next day though.
She's always been a bit cranky. I tried winning hre over like I would ferals but she's just kind of "give me the food and go away". She likes my BF a whole lot, ates me. I think it's because she has a bad habit of gettng into the garbage can and gets all sorts of nasty stuff stuck to her so I end up bathing her and boy she HATES that. I'd rather bathe my two fully clawed male cats than her lol
here's my real issue, I'm fine with er not liking me and whatnot. Whatever makes her comfortable.
MY problem is that she seems to want to claim EVERYTHING as soon as I go to bed. I'll here her growling and then if i don't get up in .5secs and get her she starts SCREAMING. and if I don't get to her a that point she'll start to beat on my cats.
Which they were backing down but now I think they realized she doesn't have any claws because instead of running away, they pounce at her.
I thought it was play and sometimes when she doesn't start screaming her head off I'm sure it is.
I have water dishes and litterboxes all through out the house. I have tried feliway. I am soon going to try rescue remedies and something else to see if it helps.
Princess is about 11 yrs old. Spayed
my other cats
BeBe and Lil' Guy are about 3 yrs old and neutered (one is a couple months older).
Some nights, I have o get up 5 times to break up their fights. I work odd hrs. Some days, lke today, I only have 8hrs between shifts and that doesn't leave me a lot of sleep y'know?
Any thoughts on how to make the Princess happy?
oh and I"ve increased play time. I was hoping if I got all three tired it'd work and it helped some but not a lot.
