Lily is 8 months old..she is my avatar..on here.
I bought her a laser mouse when I got her at a rescue at the animal shelter
to entertain her and also 2 scratch post and toys were here and I also have
a long stick with a toy rat that I play twice a day until she is panting
and tired.. I also have catnip spray.
She began the 2nd day she came into our home tearing up the curtains
and the couch and chair..
I took a rolled up newspaper once and she thought that she would attack it too
playfully, plastic flyswat shaking and saying no sternly has not worked..
I tried the water bottle a few times in the face and she just looked at me
amused and ran off and came back for more..wilder than before..
I stopped the water bottle as someone on here said to not do that.
Okay the furniture has been covered with sheets and she will run up under the sheets
and tear up the couch..and chair..
She just knocked the phone off the table beside me ...
I bought the spray yesterday at pet smart that is to prevent scratching on furniture
my furniture was sprayed this morning and she still scratched some on it with me sitting in it.
She runs so fast and does it and then if I say no she runs off real fast down the hall..
She will return and do this over and over all day long..
At night she does not do it..she lies in the bed with me...all night long till dawn
but when day break comes the tearing up starts...
Does anyone know of anything I have done wrong or if the no scratching spray might work
if I continue...with it daily..it was expensive to me and I also had to be sure it did not cause a headache
or racing heart beat for my husband or I ..since wwe have multiple chemical sensitivity illness and to
even botanical ingredients...
I have decided to never use the laser mouse again as of today
because she seems wired to be worse when I play with her twice a day with the mouse..
Waiting for your thoughts...
