    My Family Hates My Cat

    It makes me incredibly sad that they hate Vader. He is an awesome kitty!

    My Family Hates My Cat

    The cat is only the beginning. I am blonde- have been since I was 18. Being 30 this year I am ready for a change and will be going dark red at the end of the month. Drastic change, yes. But I am excited! She told me she hates red - and that can pick a color out together on the beach trip this...

    My Family Hates My Cat

    I love my mom too, but I am just upset about this whole situation. She told me I was being disrespectful to her by keeping him. But I am 30! I know my cat better than she does - she has only seen him once. I just figure they are not animal people and will not understand.

    My Family Hates My Cat

    Kieka, I had the same thoughts about if I just gave away Vader it would not teach my daughter anything. Granted she is 6 - I have raised both of my girls to respect animals. I have had to repeat though to my 6 year old that she cannot just go up into a dogs face, even cats! Not all animals...

    My Family Hates My Cat

    Vader has done well so far with our newest member. He is curious - I keep them separated while I am not at home- and when I am home I let them mingle. Vader does get a little overwhelmed and will try to run from Loki, and I give him a break. Vader is far more interested in Loki's food then he is...

    My Family Hates My Cat

    I tried to explain to her that it was defense. Vader has never randomly just bit anyone...esp my kids. He isn't a cuddler and he does not give kisses- but that is just who he is. He will rub against me and purr and let me hold him for a bit. But he is pretty independent. I have talked with a lot...

    My Family Hates My Cat

    I hope this is the right forum for this! So, last week my cat Vader once again was at the door when I was coming in and ran out. Apparently he forgets every time that he is afraid outside, haha! and he ran under the car. I tell my youngest daughter all the time that she needs to let me deal...

    Comment by 'Vader2016' in article 'Cat Bites - What Every Cat Owner Needs To Know'

    Recently happened to me. My cats were fighting and I broke them up and the one bit my finger joint pretty bad. I ended up needing surgery to clean it out and was in hospital for 4 days. I am in OT now to try and gain some mobility back in that finger. Its still painful, red and stiff. Hoping I...

    Infected Cat Bite (pics)

    Surgery was March 27th. I donated a kidney a year ago - and those scars were great nothing wrong. I have been in more pain and had more issues with this finger.

    Dang. So I guess my stiffness is going to be forever too. I hate it. I wish they would just amputate it some days

    Infected Cat Bite (pics)

    I am not sure why its still swollen and red. I think a lot of the redness is the fact that I have a great amount of scar tissue building up? Its not infected though - I saw Infectious Disease two weeks ago (2nd time since release from hospital) and they took blood to test and they never called me.

    Infected Cat Bite (pics)

    I mentioned on my first introduction post that I had recently dealt with a pretty nasty cat bite (my cat). It became infected - septic arthritis - and I had a surgery to clean it out and was in hospital for 4 days. When I got bit I read the horror stories on google. But I figured those were...

    Anyone Use A Rheumatologist?

    I am in occupational therapy right now. I believe it will be a month soon - twice a week.

    Anyone Use A Rheumatologist?

    While not my knee - I have considered trying to see one. In March I was bit by my cat when I went to break up a fight. He bit me straight through my knuckle. The ER wasn't much help - so I went a week without really getting REAL help. I was on antibiotics though. A few days after the bite my...

    New!

    He was sleeping on the arm of the love seat and the table and my glass was next to it. He just woke up and I guess it was bothering him. He goes into my bathroom - I used to have my body mist sprays lined up there. Nope- can't have that. I watched him once just sit and paw each off into the...

    New!

    Omigosh - you made me giggle. YES! I have learned so much with Vader and his habits. He has been the cat that has pushed my buttons way too often lol! Last night she shoved my glass of water off the table for no other reason then to annoy me. He KNOWS when I am getting annoyed. He was digging...

    Thank you! He is a young cat - He is about 4 now. He is my "middle" cat. I have a tabby who will be 7 (Zelda) and then a 1 year old Snowshoe (Vader)

    New!

    That could be why Vader isn't as dark - he doesn't go outside (too scared haha) and is more of in a controlled environment. I hope he darkens up a little bit more though! i know he is still fairly young!
