I Have Had Several Aggressive Cats Over The Years
A Mother cat with kittens will be aggressive and defensive if you reach into her cat bed when her kittens are with her. She is trying to defend her kittens, so do not feel wrong about that. Try to pat and hold the kittens when their Mother is not near. Kittens will be aggressive and mean if their Mother is that way. A mild and even-tempered Mother cat will have soft and even-tempered kittens. Ask to look at and hold the Mother cat of kittens you might want to adopt if she is friendly and purrs away while you have her go ahead and embrace one of her kittens.
Mr. Gray And Winchester
Mr. Gray and Winchester were friends, and then they fell over something. Mr. Gray used the Winchesters’ litter box, which started their slapping match. Mr. Gray or Winchester will start hissing and growling, and the slapping fest commences. I have finally learned to ignore them, and then they tend to act better as their behavior is a way to get my attention. I have placed one in another room of the house, and they work fine for about a week, and then they slap away again. I brushed them with the same brush and put each other’s scent on them, which helped some. Both cats are declawed, so they can not hurt each other. Play with your cats that do not get along and wear them out so they do not feel like fighting.
Feral Cats
Feral cats will never be as tame as those that are not feral cats. Feral cats can be unpredictable and get mad all of a sudden. I have adopted some feral cats over the years, and some were impossible to touch and hold but were excellent mousers. A wild cat will come to you on their terms only. Do not pick up a feral cat and expect it to sit on your lap, as it will likely bite you. If the wild cat jumps on your lap, talk gently to it and do not make sudden moves to scare it or make it think it has to defend itself. Some feral cats became feral because their owners dumped them out or they were mistreated daily by their owners. A wild cat will always have some trust issues. Be kind, gentle, and loving to your wild cat, and do not expect him to respond immediately to you, as trust takes time.
Annoying Cats
Some cats love to get into mischief when you are talking on the phone. Ignore your cat and let him do his thing, and he will stop doing that negative behavior, as it did not work to get your attention away from your phone call. A sick cat can start meowing and yowling for attention. If your cat starts this behavior, take him to the Vet and have him checked over, as it could be a matter of life or death for your cat. One of my cats loves to rub her scent all over the door or the edge of the stove, and I have learned to ignore her, and she has finally stopped doing that. A board cat can be annoying, so put more cat toys out and interact with your cat more. All cat behaviors have a cause and can often be corrected with patience and love. I hope you and your cats can live in perfect harmony.
