Interesting! Thank you, I do really like poinsettias. They're more of an annual plant for my area but I managed to keep one alive and blooming for 4 years!

He's never shown the planets any interest before and most of them are out of his reach. Like my pathos is in a hanging basket, and the rest of my pants are in pots too small for him to really get into. I guess he could potentially knock one down and the dirt would spill out, but I've had him and...

This makes me feel a lot better! He's never bothered any of my plants in the 4 years I've had him, so I won't worry about them now. Even my pathos that drapes over the side of my desk he's never even batted at before. Thank you! I'm glad to know I can keep all my plants.

So obviously, there are certain plants I will not keep in the house; poinsettias, lilies, hyacinth, daffodils, and other plants that even the pollen on your cats paws can create an issue. But what about other plants like aloes that are only dangerous if ingested? I ask because I realized a few...

The reason why I didn't go into detail is because I already know why it happened and how to prevent it in the future. I only mentioned it to point out that this time around he was scared and I ended up with an infection. And now that I know cat scratches and bites get infected quickly, I'd like...

I only called it that because that's how Jackson Galaxy describes it as, bit thanks for the resources!

Okay, so on monday my cat viciously attacked me. I know it was out of fear and wasn't his fault, but he bit me really badly and I have an infection in my hand. This was by far the worse damage he's done, but it hasn't been the first time. He does have play aggression which I've been trying to...

I would LOVE to get him a cat wheel, but they are so ridiculously expensive and not in my budget at the moment. I also tried clicker training when he was a kitten but gave up after a while 😂 he was never interested in treats so it was hard to find anything he was motivated for. He does like...

I have a 2 and a half year old Siberian cat, he was neutered at 10 months old (older than I would have liked but with covid, it was difficult to get appointments). When he was a kitten, he liked getting frisky with anyone and anything that sat still for more than a few minutes. Very shortly...

Thanks! I also saw this as an option. I kept seeing l-lysine but I thought that was mainly for FIV or FIP (can't remember which one).

Hello all. About a week ago, I noticed my cat scratching his ear more than normal. So I kept an eye on it, thinking it was just some dry skin as it's winter and very dry right now. But then almost overnight, his ear went bald and looked dry and irritated. I thought it may be ear mites or some...

Thank you! The vet chalked it up to him still being young. But this really seems like what is going on. The last time he attacked me he sat on the couch next to me and stared at me for a bit before attacking. He will go several days without an issue and then all of a sudden there will be a two...

Thanks everyone for your input. He hasn't done it since, and in fact, hasn't gone after my ankles since then either. I'm wondering if for whatever he just had a lot of pent up energy and took it out on me. I did get him a ton of new toys and a food puzzle for some extra brain stimulation and so...

We are definitely not at that point.I don't think I could ever do that. Not to shame you or anything for you decision but I would either deal with it or re-home to someone who was willing and able to work with his behavior. He definitely just has some kitten behavior that for whatever, he...

It actually started just after we had him fixed. About a week after being nutered he started with attacking ankles when we walked past and started to get worse from there. At first I thought that maybe it was because he was in pain/ wasn't feeling good from the sedative but he just never stopped...

My year old male cat, who is nutered, has all of a sudden started attacking me. It has slowly progressed and has gotten worse and worse over the past few months. He started out with biting ankles as I walked by, which evolved into him stalking me around waiting for the chance to pounce. When I...

I scheduled a vet appointment for two weeks from today. Unfortunately they couldn't get me in any sooner. I am thinking that this is a very very young male. Maybe 5 months old? No visible parts, so to speak, and still has a baby meow. he ate a 13oz can of food within the first 24 hours I found...

Awww I just found out it's actually been living in our basement ☹️ I went out to check the water and was calling and calling and heard meowing from the basement door. you can only access it from outside and the door is broken so that it doesn't close all the way. I'm not sure how long it's been...

Cat's can be so strange 😂 luckily it hasn't been an issue since and his snip-snip appointment is on Friday. Unfortunately I couldn't get it any sooner as this usually is a big time for barn cats around here to start having their litters and vets are busy with that right now.

Thank you! I also thought of leaving out some jeans to change in and out of to protect myself from scratches. I've decided to call the vet tomorrow and explain the situation and see if I can get ahold of a TNR program if it's not spayed/nutered. I was made aware of a woman who kind of "collects"...
