    Cat bites hard when I stop petting

    MOD NOTE: merged threads. I dont understand my cat in all honesty. I play with him every day after work, give him the best food, have cat trees for him, cat grass he is vaccinated etc. But when he comes on the bed in the morning if my arm is in the wrong location he grabs it and bites down...

    Just an update for anyone interested. I cancelled last second on the current cattery I had and booked a slightly more expensive one to guarantee comfort. There will be a maximum of 3 cats in this one and Ill have a friend drive me to the location.

I really care about his happiness hence the reason Im making the post to...

    Should I give my cat xanax for an 8 hour flight

    Hey guys dont worry I wont give him 0.5. I asked my doctor about it and he said i should give him 1/10th of 0.5. I tried another relaxant in the past perhaps one of those you have mentioned but he had an allergic reaction and his eyes were red so I dont want to risk it. Xanax is a relatively...
