My cat died at 11.5 years in Dec. 2022. I used to freak out and spray her with water when she's scratch my furniture. Now, I don't want to get rid of the furniture BECAUSE of the claw marks. In the larger scheme of things, that sofa or chair is a worthless object vs. a soul who loves you and depends on you for literally everything.

My childhood cat Lisa passed away at 20 a few weeks ago. She was the most gentle cat I’ve ever met. When my mom or I played with her, she always had her claws retracted so she wouldn’t scratch us. When I was a child she allowed me to put dolls clothing on her. She would also give soft little love bites, very careful so it wouldn’t hurt. I loved her so much and I miss her terribly.

1. Do not raise your voice or make sudden loud noises before cats as their hearing is extremely sensitive. They perceive the loud person/ thing as a threat. 2. Do not tease cats - like, pulling their tail or waking them when asleep. 3. Do not declaw 4. Do not indulge in rough play 5. No harsh discipline rather use positive reinforcement 6. Care about their needs like combing them regularly or cleaning their litter box 7. Respect their territory. 8. Do not frequently interrupt their sleep as it leads to stress. 9. Do not play pranks on a cat as they feel insecure. Do not dress up a cat 10. Do not force them to interact with new pets/persons/ environments. Give them time.

Same here. I adopted my then 8 yr old Siamese-mix girl from a good shelter. Seeming bewildered at the loss of her previous family, she hid from me for only a couple of days but soon came out to her feeding station and litter box. When we connected, her behavior made me conclude that she had never been abused. Such a polite cat, she's never clawed any furniture or jumped up to the kitchen counter. She enjoys grooming sessions, toys, scratching stations and beds around the house, but prefers to sleep with me!

She's a good cat and I don't understand why no one brought her home. She sat in a cage for over a year.

Once just as I was quickly extending my arm to crack a stiff elbow, my cat jumped up and I accidentally hit her face. She immediately ran away. After using the restroom I went to the other room and found her and the look of distrust on her face was something I will never forget. But I apologized as best I could and gave her a treat. I think she understood it was an accident, because she stayed with me the rest of the night, and the next day she was loving as ever and it was like it never happened.

Declawing is a violent, invasive, painful, and unnecessary mutilation that involves 10 separate amputations-not just of cats' nails but of their joints as well. Its long-term effects include skin and bladder problems and the gradual weakening of cats' legs, shoulders, and back muscles. DONT DECLAW

Casey was forced to spend his life in an enclosed room. We did our best to make him comfortable, bought him china dishes, water fountain, snacks, bedding, and we did our best to give him wuvies ❤. One of our other cat actually found a way to open his door . So we had to duct tape his door every time we went in to clean his box, bring him food, etc… I saw this precious cat suffer a lot. He walked different too !! We did our best to spend time with him as he was all alone . Eventually Casey developed cancer . His former owner feed him a diet of dry kibble. And sink water in spite of me providing water for them both before I aquired ownership. Casey withered away from a fluffy 22 lbs to a sad 9 lbs. he died in our arms on way to the vet. We miss you buddy. Rest In Peace Casey.

I have a cat that used to attack another cat, but after spraying her & telling her no every single time, she doesn't do it anymore. I talk to the feral cats that sleep & eat at my place. I tell them I'm going to the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, outside or desk-chair & they learn what it means. It's just teaching them what your're doing, so they'll know. There was a real scared feral cat, after a few years she learned - that when I said I'm at my desk-chair - she would come in from outside to eat. She sees me at my desk-chair, I turn my head & look at her - she's not running out the door. When I'm going to make a noise, like the can opener - I say: make noise & they know it's coming.

If you value your furniture above a cat, don't get a cat. Here in the UK declawing is (thankfully) illegal. I have 9 cats, 8 of them rescues. They have cat trees, scratching posts all over the house but some of them still prefer my sofa. That's OK. The sofa will wear out or I'll get fed up with it anyway. My cats are far more important. While I was watching the video Kira was on my lap, purring her head off and making biscuits. I got her at 8 months old as a foster. She had been horribly neglected by her uncaring, cruel owners who surrendered her because they were going to be visited by the RSPCA who'd visited them before and were following up the case. Poor Kira (the name I gave her) was grossly underweight, full of cat 'flu, fleas, worms and not spayed, also worrying was she had no strength in her back legs. We came to the conclusion she'd been confined in a very small space, like a cat carrier for long periods of time. She was terrified of us too and would hiss but never lash out when we passed her. We got her microchipped under anaesthetic. You've guessed it, we adopted her. The turning point came when I bought her a pretty pink polka dot collar, complete with bow on impulse. I showed it to her. I will never forget how she looked up into my face with an expression that said "That's for me?" and put her head forward to I could put it on. I have a beautiful photograph of her sitting so proud. She's a black cat with the most gorgeous green eyes. She's super friendly and loving and I feel blessed to have her. Our latest rescue we are still working on. He was an unneutered Tom who our neighbour was feeding until he moved away. We took over feeding and eventually caught our boy, had his health issues sorted by our vet, had him neutered and chipped and he too became part of our family. He is coming round in his own time, is learning to play but still hides when we have visitors until he decides they're not a threat. Our vet said he was very young, no more than 3 years old. I dread to think what would have happened to him if we hadn't caught him. He's also a stunningly beautiful black cat. He's usually to be found at night sleeping on the spare pillow above my head with a look of contentment and that makes me smile. All our cats, ages ranging from 19 years old to 4 years old are indoor cats. They are all so precious.

I dont know if this was wrong but a cat we had at our house, Princess, was a kind of left with us individual who was given the normal, for a pet in our family, the necessary care and was kind of given the freedom of the house and yard. She ingratiated herself with everyone and just fit in. I don't remember any problems with scratching or anything like that, maybe she "got it out of her system" outside but she had favorite areas where she would hang out all day it seemed. She was kind of like a harlequin around the house and was a pleasant surprise when she showed up. Never showed any aggression or violence and was a pleasant and affectionate visitor wherever she happened to be. Really a wonderful presence. At that time everybody was going indifferent directions except Mom who remarked that Princess would be around her during her daily business around the house and would particularly watch her in the kitchen from the garden wall while she did cleaning or preparing dinner. Princess was a wonderful being to be around. We all miss her.

My cats hate the sound of the vacuum cleaner, and the sound of thunder. They love to listen to soft sounding music, even heavy metal, (provided the sound isn't blasting the roof off the house). Declawing is cruel. Cats naturally shed their claws. A goog scratch pole helps. My cats have never scratched my furniture, as they use, and love their 8 poled " cat gymnasium", that has loads of tiered ledges, and hiding places. I'm always finding little "half moon" shedded claws round the place.

Number 10, when a wanted to make friend with a cat that often spends time in my garden under shrubs, I let a sick I had worn all day outside. I figured since it's all about scent, like dogs, it was worth a go.It has been a huge sucess, and just let them approach me, or not, without any sounds of movement. Now if they see me, they will run across the lawn and over to me. I'm new to experiencing positive time with a cat, as I was scratched as a child and have avoided them. Met a friendly cat, a year ago, then researched lots on you tube since, to understand their body language, to minimise chances of getting scratched again.

I think you can overdo this list of yes and no stuff. Declawing is obviously horrible. But I've had over 27 cats in my life, and have had up to 10 at a time. I now have 6. From time to time I squirt or swat them, though usually because one of them is picking on another. And I yell. Often. They look at me like, "who died and made you king?" and mostly ignore me. Sometimes I roar and act like a monster trying to get them. They run, but not very fast or very far, and it is more like a game. And each one demands attention in one way or another, from jumping on my lap to sleeping on the bed or yowling for attention. All will eventually come to me with their tail up if I call their name enough.

@thunderchief7 2 ай бұрын

Still, I don't pick them up. They do not like that. I don't normally hug or hold them. And it is important to get them used to touching their feet when they are kittens. I gently hold on their tails, but not so tightly they can't easily pull them free. They don't mind that. All of mine let me pet their bellies and don't react aggressively. And there is no hard play. If something makes them panic and use teeth and claws, I holler. They look at me like, "oh, what did I do?" and let go. Never respond to that with force.

@Brain_Juice Ай бұрын

THINKING of Buying or Keeping a Cat? Before anyone keeps a cat they really need to understand the animals psychological makeup. They need to respect the cat's individual and unique characteristics. They need to spend time developing a bond and earning trust. A cat is not a baby human or a cuddly toy, it is a small predator, a beautiful and majestic creature with tremendous abilities and almost supernatural powers. To keep a cat is not to own it, but to care for it and to insure that it's specific needs are met. You will find that if the cat that you have chosen, choses you, you will have a friend and a companion for it's whole sensitive life!

I had adopted a young cat and a couple of months later, I decided to adopt another one for company. This new cat was a little kitten 3 months old. I introduced the 2 very gradually but it didn't work out very well at all. In fact the first adopted cat was very agressive towards the kitten and I was very unsure whether I could keep the poor little kitten. I called the lady of the Animal Protection Society from whom I had adopted both cats to find a solution. She solved the problem very easily : catch the urine from the older cat and rub it over the body of the new cat. That worked perfectly - the older cat recognised the kitten as part of his family and peace came back between the two. If you are having the same problem, try this !!!!
