There's a guy I know who has 2 cats, both girls, both siamese. I've never had one of those but I hear they're way smart!
Anyway, he has had the first one like 6 years and the new one has only lived there about 6 weeks.
I understand it's harder to introduce a female in a house with another female? I told him to take his time and not rush it. It's going ok but he still can't leave them alone together so he keeps the new cat in the guest room.
I guess the other nite he realized that sometime in the last 2 weeks, the new kitty peed in several places all over the bed in the guest room. When he discovered it, he flipped out and rubbed her nose in every spot and said she was a bad kitty and threw her in the bathroom with some water and a litterbox.
I told him to take her to the vet to check for a UTI. He agreed to do that but he said if she doesn't have a UTI, he is giving her away!
That's the long winded point of my post. I'm frustrated because this guy claims to love his cats. Yet he declaws them (all 4 paws mind you!), he yells at them often, he throws them in the carriers for hours if they do something bad, and now he is talking about getting rid of this one just cause she peed on the bed!
I tried to tell him the cat is likely stressed from being taken out of its home and tossed out and then coming to a new home with a new owner and a new cat. That's a lot for a cat to deal with! I feel like he has such high expectations of these poor cats and they're just animals! At some point you have to just say, Hey kitty I love ya but you gotta try harder not to pee outside the litter box, you know? But to toss it out like that? I mean, he is asking his vet to find a new home, he's not just throwing her outside. Thankfully cause ishe is declawed now so she can't defend herself!
I'm sorry you guys, I'm just really frustrated! I guess I just needed to vent. I got another beef with my great uncle who has an 8 year old with an infected paw. They waited too long to get it checked out and now they're saying if it's cancer, they need to put him down! It's a beautiful orange cat that looks like a lion and they want to put him down! Omg, it's enough to make me sick, all of these people who shouldn't be allowed to own pets!
Again, sorry for my rambling. As you can see, I'm real frustrated today.
