I am afraid of, and therefore Do Not like our cat. Back in the spring I asked for help with our kitten Gus. His aggressive play was causing a lot of trouble. I got good advice and we did everything we could, including CBD oil. Fast forward to today and we have an 18 pound, 4 foot long killing machine. It's not cute or funny or acceptable. Gus is ruining my life. I can't take 3 steps without him lunging at my feet where he'll wrap himself around me and use his back feet to 'eviscerate' my ankle. I've stopped trying to pet him because I'm tired of going to work looking like a junkie with puncture wounds and bruises. He must sense my reservation with him and uses it to his advantage to bully and control me. He's my 4th cat and only one to behave like this. Prior to Gus I rescued 2 very broken Turkish angora brothers who were solid white and skittish AF, neither one ever made any attempt to bite. Gus bites 30 times a day. My heart is broken because I have a ghost cat; he's here, but I can't touch him. My husband adores him and would be devastated if......if I ultimately insist Gus be re-homed. I'm desperate ya'll. Are there just some cats that will NOT be tamed? Is he one of them? Why does he hate me? Up until the last 30 days I've genuinely tried to make this relationship work but I'm at the end of my patience. Were he a human child, given his size and frenzied attacks, he would be classified dangerous and abusive. An adult male would be in jail for this abuse...why should a cat get away with it? I have never thought of giving up a pet, that's never been an option before but.....I can't live like this. And shouldn't have to. Advice anyone?
