Today i woke up a little later than usual since school let out for break, and all 3 of my cats were outside my door so i let them sit in my bed (i assume they were cold since it gets very cold around 8-10am.) and my father, the self proclaimed expert at training animals, barges in and beats my cats with a hanger, my amazing girl, dorie, hid under my bed, then he came in and stole her from me. Their ages range from, 4-5 months, possible 6 monther.. He hit the youngest, smallest, and the one with the worst anxiety the hardest and most, and he practically terrified them into not eating their food. I give them affection, i gave them treats so that they know that when they're good, they get rewarded, i feed them, i give them water multiple times a day, i clean their box more throughly then anyone else in my family. They're kittens and I genuinely just want them to feel safe and loved in this house, weve been making progress for a month and now he turns around does this. what do i do, how do i make them feel safe again?
