that was horrible....I'm ashamed of my grammar in that last post....and my repetitiveness....I'm writing a novel and I can't even manage to use correct grammar and description in a post on the internet.... *ashamed*
it's not pus....it's a semi transparent liquid not red/clear but more of a light transparent orange....like the color you get when you mix orange with a lot of white but transparent....(I'm not describing this well, I know....I'm really bad at describing colors). any who similar to the...
the hand is super sore, sensitive where the wound is. It's a bit puffy in the affected area, still a bit red but not as bad as before and still somewhat itchy as well as my arm where he scratched me. I've been getting odd colored liquid out of two of the various puncture wounds from his claws...
Update on the situation: My SO came home tonight (no more house sitting) and he greeted her then proceeded to rub against my leg as if we were best friends. She had already been made aware of the situation and seen my hand and arms before entering our apartment. I'm still skeptical of the...
I've tried expressing my feelings in such a way as to not make it sound as though blame was being placed, but simply to communicate that I'm unhappy with the cat's behavior and think that it needs to be adjusted if at all possible and I get the response "You shouldn't______" or "It's your fault...
the problem is that if I do anything behind her back i'm the bad guy, whether it's for the cat's wellbeing or not. I'd rather honestly just leave altogether but I'm not going to because I'm not going to abandon my marriage. She needs to understand I married her, not her cat.
I don't know...
bonepicker - the litter box is not in the bedroom, it's in the front room by the sliding glass door and windows. Also, the sliding door is left partially open while the screen is still shut so that air can flow through the apartment. We do not keep the litter box in the bedroom because this...
I say filthy cat because he's dirty he doesn't clean himself like other cats do, my spouse actually has to bathe the cat and he doesn't do well with baths so the combination of dirt, dander, kitty litter and whatever is in the litter box at the time he's using it (urine or feces) is what makes...
okay I'm going to make this very very clear.....I have reached under the bed and the sofa for this cat before and he has never attacked me in the past. The owner lets him on the kitchen counters, are you all really going to tell me that you would let an animal walk on top of a counter after...
I haven't been letting him outside, she lets him out when she's home but I don't because the sound of cats fighting hurts my ears especially in such a close proximity. Loud scream-ish noises irritate my ears and make my head hurt, have since I was a child.
Furthermore, I wasn't grabbing for...
yes he is neutered. I would suggest my monthly cycle being an underlying cause but because I had lived with my spouse before we were married and while she had the cat before, I doubt that would be the reason. This is the first time in 5 years that he has randomly attacked me for no reason. ...
also, if it helps, he poops when he gets in fights with the stray cats that hop the fence into our back patio and attack him.....so it's not just because he had to defecate.
again, lack of funds means can't afford a vet trip. we can barely afford rent and have to go without electricity for the month because of it. Litter boxes are cleaned, freshly cleaned I might add. There is food, water, treats, everything. The last vet trip was recent and he had no health...
My spouse is at a friend's house overnight while the friend is on vacation but had been home during the day to spend time with the cat she has had for five years. I've never really not had issues with this cat, but he has never once attacked me. Now, all parties involved (including the cat)...
