ok so I have a cat that is about a year old. Very friendly with humans as kitten & through some of her life. Bot so much with animals but not a problem because I dont have any other animals. Her name is Butters. Butters started becoming mean to certain people little by little. At first I thought it was men but 1) she loves my boyfriend her other owner and 2) she is now mean to every guest. Its becoming embarrasing to have her just go out of her way to hiss and attack people. I flick her on the nose tried scaring her with a fly swatter, I even tried the water bottle trick nothing works. She use to just run away knowing she was in trouble & now she just starts hissing at me because I'm telling her no and continues to hiss at guests. She has clawed a couple people that have came over too! Most messed up part is at times she will act innocent and friendly and jump up on peoples laps they start petting her then she turns into a psycho. makes no sense. Now its literally everytime someone is over she s horrible she wont stop growling & people dont even mess with her because I will tell them not to to be safe she still goes out of her way to attack people. I cant do it anymore. I dont know what to do it is getting ridiculous & her starting to show aggresion towards me telling her no now scares me even more.
Now I am 7 months pregnant & terrified to bring my baby home. If she is like this to guests how is she going to act with a newborn. I am so scared to risk introducing her to the baby or anything because it only takes one time & I'm terrified she will attack the baby. I love my cat to death though. she is suxh a sweetheart when it comes to me and her other owner but other people forget about it. Plus I see her beng worse because she will be jealous. I dont know if I can risk it. If she even hissed like she does now to my baby as much as I would want to keep her I dont know if Icould & if i did have to get rid off her how could I? She would attack the people. I am so over the situation & I need help. She isn't sick so I dont want to hear that crap. It is her behavior. She is being a freakin brat.
her dad does play rough with her though. but I dont see how that would make her mean because she isnt mean to us at all. && she knows its playing. She isnt playing by any means with guests. It is straight aggresion with everyone else. She is at a point where she literally looks like she is going to jump on someones face claw and not stop if she got a hold of people.
Hope someone has helping words
