Hello, I posted in cat behaviour before about the situation we were in. I tried everything I could to make things go back to normal, except for asking my vet about medication for our pandas behaviour. She suddenly became aggressive towards her father, and to avoid vet bills, my bf intervened in between the cat fights and became the target of the attack.
We got her spayed, got feliway friends, cbd, tried reintroduction techniques and it was all very hard on our limited income. I'm pregnant and my bf is the only one who works. Our door doesn't close properly and we had the cats separated, but one night our panda busted through the door to fight with her father and my bf stopped it. He got attacked pretty badly, blood everywhere and needed IV antibiotics for 3 days and oral for 7.
We loved her so much, she was the sweetest cat I've ever met. The situation was quite complicated, and I've had some people share their opinions that I've "killed the cat". We didnt want to, this was the most heartbreaking thing we've ever had to do in our lives. Comments like that make me pretty upset and feel quite guilty about it all. Thinking of the things I couldve done to prevent this but, I try to tell myself it'd happen at some point or another. Everyday I wonder if I've made the right decision here. It kills me. The only other options were to bring her to a shelter, where she would be alone and they'd probably euthanize her anyways due to this aggression. I feel like rehoming wouldnt be a good option either because if something set her off, she could easily attack someone else.
It's hard losing a pet, especially under these circumstances.
