My cat died at 11.5 years in Dec. 2022. I used to freak out and spray her with water when she's scratch my furniture. Now, I don't want to get rid of the furniture BECAUSE of the claw marks. In the larger scheme of things, that sofa or chair is a worthless object vs. a soul who loves you and depends on you for literally everything.
This is an incredible perspective. (I agree)
I truly understand.... 😔
I even offer my skin, bwahaha
Sorry ❤. Would never spray my cat. Abuse. But hey you didn't know.❤❤❤
Thanks for that description. So true.
My childhood cat Lisa passed away at 20 a few weeks ago. She was the most gentle cat I’ve ever met. When my mom or I played with her, she always had her claws retracted so she wouldn’t scratch us. When I was a child she allowed me to put dolls clothing on her. She would also give soft little love bites, very careful so it wouldn’t hurt. I loved her so much and I miss her terribly.
My deepest condolences to you and your family 😻💐🙏
That’s love……….that’s life.
I feel for you. Try saying to yourself that your pet had the best possible life a cat could have.
What a happy life you gave. ❤❤❤
My heart is with you my bengal cat passed a few months ago kidney cancer.
Declawing isn't a controversial issue. It is quite simply WRONG.
It's quite simply CRUEL.
I’m so glad it’s illegal in my country. It’s beyond me how any veterinarian could perform it when they know how cruel and damaging it is.
I would rather be my cat personal scratching post rather than hurt my precious fur baby
I would NEVER have my Kitties declawed
@@sandidavis820 I agree I would rather be my furbaby personal scratching post

Similar experience for me. Been a dog person all my life, but then took-in a senior stray, and now understand why people love cats so much.
1. Do not raise your voice or make sudden loud noises before cats as their hearing is extremely sensitive. They perceive the loud person/ thing as a threat.
2. Do not tease cats - like, pulling their tail or waking them when asleep.
3. Do not declaw
4. Do not indulge in rough play
5. No harsh discipline rather use positive reinforcement
6. Care about their needs like combing them regularly or cleaning their litter box
7. Respect their territory.
8. Do not frequently interrupt their sleep as it leads to stress.
9. Do not play pranks on a cat as they feel insecure. Do not dress up a cat
10. Do not force them to interact with new pets/persons/ environments. Give them time.
Thanks so very much for the summary...we really appreciate it ❤
Thanks!
Thanks!!!❣
And don't close the toilet lid in favor of a bowl of water, if the cat is used to drinking out of the toilet. I was a guest in a house and did that, and the cat got so miffed that it peed on the carpet in my room in retaliation!
@@rswow Cats and all animals have a natural attraction to flowing water. I don't trust "pet safe" cleaners, just get a plug in fountain.
The single most important thing you have to do in a relationship with a cat is try to understand what they want of you. When they see you're trying to understand them they try to understand you. Two way understanding obviously secures a relationship.
Truer words were never spoken!!!🙏❤️🙏❤️
Declawing is a violent, invasive, painful, and unnecessary mutilation that involves 10 separate amputations-not just of cats' nails but of their joints as well. Its long-term effects include skin and bladder problems and the gradual weakening of cats' legs, shoulders, and back muscles. DONT DECLAW
Its a cold hear ted person who declaws their ca t s. What if he or she gets out of the house and see another cat they will not be able to defend them selves.
I AGREE 100% Declawing a cat IS animal cruelty. As a "pet parent" that's had both dogs and cats, I would never have a cat declawed! It takes away their way of defending themselves against predators / enemies. Fortunately, the stat I live in has banned declawing cats. Praise God! The host of the show "My cat from hell" even stated declawing cats is cruel.
💯%
@@jan091968 Cats can easily defend themselves from snakes - they are so fast. They are predators and can protect themselves with their sharp teeth. Do you mean that they should be declawed for that ?
How does declawing affect bladder?
The first thing I did with my cat when I got her home, I basically let her be and let her warm up to me before I started interacting with her. 3 days before she trusted me to let me pet her. I have a very affectionate cat and talkative as well.
Same here. I adopted my then 8 yr old Siamese-mix girl from a good shelter. Seeming bewildered at the loss of her previous family, she hid from me for only a couple of days but soon came out to her feeding station and litter box. When we connected, her behavior made me conclude that she had never been abused. Such a polite cat, she's never clawed any furniture or jumped up to the kitchen counter. She enjoys grooming sessions, toys, scratching stations and beds around the house, but prefers to sleep with me!
@@jerushamaxwell281 I now had Marry for three months now and everything is good. She's 2 and a half year old. I also got her from a shelter. She had two previous owners which the first one gave Marry to the shelter when she was born and the second one kicked her out of the house and the picked her up off the street at five months old so she sat at the shelter till I brought her home last December. She's a good cat and I don't understand why no one brought her home. She sat in a cage for over a year. I'm so happy to save her from having to sit in a cage day in and day out watching people come and go wondering when someone will take her home. I saw her and I loved her at the first second. I promised her she would never see that cage again. I was sad hearing that she was there for a long time. I love my cat. You and I we got awesome cats.
Once just as I was quickly extending my arm to crack a stiff elbow, my cat jumped up and I accidentally hit her face. She immediately ran away. After using the restroom I went to the other room and found her and the look of distrust on her face was something I will never forget. But I apologized as best I could and gave her a treat. I think she understood it was an accident, because she stayed with me the rest of the night, and the next day she was loving as ever and it was like it never happened.
yes, at least they forgive and forget (eventually)
As a cat ages, the cat is less able to keep nails short. Always check your older cat and trim nails if necessary. The nails can grow so long that they can dig into their pads. Check your cats at least once a week.
Very good advice. We need to modify our care according to an elders needs. God bless you.
Same as dogs
I love to watch my two cats sleeping. A warm feeling comes over me to see them so peaceful, often curled up in a ball or being big spoon and little spoon. It can be hard to resist the temptation to give them a pet or kiss. I've quietly sneaked up with my phone without disturbing them, so I can enjoy a picture of the adorable pose until they're awake later.
I have a cat that used to attack another cat, but after spraying her & telling her no every single time, she doesn't do it anymore. I talk to the feral cats that sleep & eat at my place. I tell them I'm going to the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, outside or desk-chair & they learn what it means. It's just teaching them what your're doing, so they'll know. There was a real scared feral cat, after a few years she learned - that when I said I'm at my desk-chair - she would come in from outside to eat. She sees me at my desk-chair, I turn my head & look at her - she's not running out the door. When I'm going to make a noise, like the can opener - I say: make noise & they know it's coming.
I had a Devon Rex years ago. His breeder repossessed a cat from a buyer because he had been declawed. 😢 She offered him to me for free because "he will live alone in an enclosure forever" unless she could find a good loving home for him. Of course, I took the cat. He was traumatized for life, and if anyone tried to touch his feet, he would recoil in fear or in pain. NEVER DECLAW A CAT!!!
It's better to get them a scratching post they can use. Or get them toys to play with.
I almost divorced my husband over him taking my two cats and doing this!
I feel your pain, heartbreak and frustrating anguish!! We also inherited ( under duress) a declawed cat Casey beautiful black beauty. Because I already had 2 cats normal with claws. Casey was forced to spend his life in an enclosed room. We did our best to make him comfortable, bought him china dishes, water fountain, snacks, bedding, and we did our best to give him wuvies ❤. One of our other cat actually found a way to open his door . So we had to duct tape his door every time we went in to clean his box, bring him food, etc… I saw this precious cat suffer a lot. He walked different too !! We did our best to spend time with him as he was all alone . Eventually Casey developed cancer . His former owner feed him a diet of dry kibble. And sink water in spite of me providing water for them both before I aquired ownership. Casey withered away from a fluffy 22 lbs to a sad 9 lbs. he died in our arms on way to the vet. We miss you buddy. Rest In Peace Casey.
@@kyrythkessler1316almost?
So sad for that poor kitty! I wish people were smarter about things!
That snake instinct is a strong one. One day I had a green necktie on my bed and one of my cats jumped onto the bed, glimpsed the necktie and jumped four feet into the air in panic.
I always had cats as a child, and one was always sleeping with me at night. I slept alone and on a cold winter night a cat was a good source of heat and they usually made their way down into the bed, keeping each other warm on a cold winter night.we did not have central heating like a furnace, just a couple wood stoves.
You don't spit in the wind. You don't pull on Superman's cape, you don't pull of fthe mask of the Ol' Lone Ranger and you don't play rough with a cat.
I was SO expecting your cats name to be Jim
My cat used to love playing rough. She'd come up to me and start it. Then hop on my lap and purr and fall asleep. It depends on the cat. I didn't mind a few scratches if it meant my little friend was having fun.
If you value your furniture above a cat, don't get a cat. Here in the UK declawing is (thankfully) illegal. I have 9 cats, 8 of them rescues. They have cat trees, scratching posts all over the house but some of them still prefer my sofa. That's OK. The sofa will wear out or I'll get fed up with it anyway. My cats are far more important.
While I was watching the video Kira was on my lap, purring her head off and making biscuits. I got her at 8 months old as a foster. She had been horribly neglected by her uncaring, cruel owners who surrendered her because they were going to be visited by the RSPCA who'd visited them before and were following up the case. Poor Kira (the name I gave her) was grossly underweight, full of cat 'flu, fleas, worms and not spayed, also worrying was she had no strength in her back legs. We came to the conclusion she'd been confined in a very small space, like a cat carrier for long periods of time. She was terrified of us too and would hiss but never lash out when we passed her. We got her microchipped under anaesthetic. You've guessed it, we adopted her.
The turning point came when I bought her a pretty pink polka dot collar, complete with bow on impulse. I showed it to her. I will never forget how she looked up into my face with an expression that said "That's for me?" and put her head forward to I could put it on. I have a beautiful photograph of her sitting so proud. She's a black cat with the most gorgeous green eyes. She's super friendly and loving and I feel blessed to have her.
Our latest rescue we are still working on. He was an unneutered Tom who our neighbour was feeding until he moved away. We took over feeding and eventually caught our boy, had his health issues sorted by our vet, had him neutered and chipped and he too became part of our family. He is coming round in his own time, is learning to play but still hides when we have visitors until he decides they're not a threat. Our vet said he was very young, no more than 3 years old. I dread to think what would have happened to him if we hadn't caught him. He's also a stunningly beautiful black cat. He's usually to be found at night sleeping on the spare pillow above my head with a look of contentment and that makes me smile. All our cats, ages ranging from 19 years old to 4 years old are indoor cats. They are all so precious.
I got Infedal her own reclining chair yet she claws the hell outta mine ........

Declawing is so wrong !
@@brianflower5490Yes, it is. I could never, ever inflict such a painful thing on my cats. Thankfully, declawing was outlawed in my country (UK) many years ago. Cropping dogs ears and cropping dogs tails is also illegal in my country although that didn't come into effect until 2006.
❤❤❤❤❤
Never declaw a cat.
I have been blessed with the two sweetest moody little furballs. They have been traveling with me, been my furry nurses for many many surgeries and have been my two more valuable companions. They like to scratch my recliner. So I just draped my bison robe over it and brought them a new cat condo
I dont know if this was wrong but a cat we had at our house, Princess, was a kind of left with us individual who was given the normal, for a pet in our family, the necessary care and was kind of given the freedom of the house and yard. She ingratiated herself with everyone and just fit in. I don't remember any problems with scratching or anything like that, maybe she "got it out of her system" outside but she had favorite areas where she would hang out all day it seemed. She was kind of like a harlequin around the house and was a pleasant surprise when she showed up. Never showed any aggression or violence and was a pleasant and affectionate visitor wherever she happened to be. Really a wonderful presence. At that time everybody was going indifferent directions except Mom who remarked that Princess would be around her during her daily business around the house and would particularly watch her in the kitchen from the garden wall while she did cleaning or preparing dinner. Princess was a wonderful being to be around. We all miss her.
To number 1: Electric coffee grinders are bad too. I always put our grinder on a thick peace of cork to minimize the noise. Our cat appreciated it very much.
I can't bear the sound of our coffee grinder, so I can just imagine the impact on cats' sensitive ears. I've reassured myself that it takes less than half a minute for my husband to grind coffee, but the cork sounds like a great idea to help our cats and he agrees.
They love to be talked to. Cats love it, it’s like affection without touch.
Treat cats respectfully. They hate being laughed at. Just like us.
no, they dont understand
@@AK_804you wish. That would make it easier living with them. They do understand and they hate it
@@justdev8965you live in a world of make believe.. they don’t understand ya goose 🪿
@@justdev8965 How do you know they hate being laughed at? Cats do all kinds of things that warrant a chuckle...
@@MichaelBrown-me3bhBelieve me, they know when you laugh at them.
My landlord wanted me to declaw my cat, I talked him out of making me declaw my cat. I'm happy I didn't have to do that to her.
My boy isn't afraid of anything, I can vacuum right next to him and he trusts I wont hurt him. He works out with me, I can grunt, throw weights and play loud kpop music and he's happy to be with me. He loves me and I love him. Don't tell my wife of 40 years, she gets jealous.
I have three cats. When I use the vacuum, two of them run and hide but the third will actually attack the vacuum, batting it with it’s paws. He seems to enjoy it and shows no signs of being afraid or stressed. Weird, huh? When I’m done, the other two come back out minutes later as though nothing has happened and Mr. Attack Cat is usually asleep by then.
I would never do horrible things to a cat. They are lovely and deserve respect .
I made a bad move by having my first two cats declawed. The vet never told me how bad it was and declawed them. Never,never again!!! I now have my 11th baby ❤️❤️❤️
My cats have a 1500 cm tall scratching post. The moment it was assembled, tried it out and never touched furniture again. I think they like the texture of the fabric around the post.. my yard is cat friendly and they roam inside and outside at will. Each sleeps inside at night. They have their individual bed and rugs. Happy cat - happy life
A 15 meters scratching post is no joke, props for taking good care of them!
My dad, a WWII vet marine, taught me that some snakes smell like cucumbers and to be wary if you smell cukes in an unusual place like in forest. I wouldn’t do this to a cat for that very reason.
Get them a scratching post to use.
Bottom line, kitty should come before the furniture. No de-clawing.
Or keep kitty outside.
@@sagatuppercut2960 No,there are too many dangers outside. He needs to be in the house where he is safe and loved.
On another video, a month or so ago :
If you are concerned about damaging furniture, etc, but not the animal’s wellbeing and one of their few ways to defend themselves, probably shouldn’t have a cat. There are several alternatives and you can definitely encourage scratching elsewhere/deter them from damaging stuff without causing them harm.
Yeah I agree. Don't have pets if your stuff is more important than a life.
If people would place scratch posts around the furniture (corners especially) the cat will learn to use the scratch post instead.
I used to live with people who would yell all the time at each other I would tell them to stop
Finally they had to go. Now it is much quieter and my babies are much happier
yeah my roommate used to talk loudly all the time and my cat would always run away. I'm soft spoken and she seems to like that
Those whom you have to explain to why declawing is a form of animal abuse, should not even be allowed to walk free in society
And they should never be allowed to have a cat
Really? Some have no idea- maybe they never had a cat before. These people should be educated, not shunned.
mph1ish, you're right. Most people just don't understand the damage done. Teach them.
@@mph1ish you know, who needs to be taught? Children. Because they don't have sense of morality built in them, like what you'd expect from grown adults. If you have to teach a grown ass man or woman that declawing a cat might be animal abuse, you know there's trouble in their minds.
And a declawed cat can't even do a simple thing like scratch when they itch
Please do not declaw your cats if you love them. It is a wicked thing to do.
Please do not declaw a cat even if you hate them. This is not about love - it is about the dignity of a living, intelligent and empathic being. it is an insane cruelty.
A most useful and iformative video for cat lovers and owners. Thanks for posting it on RUclips.
My discipline is a stern voice followed immediately by a positive "Good girl! Good girl!" when my cat turns back after heading someplace she shouldn't be. If she doesn't listen to my stern voice, I get a toy and distract her and say "Good girl! Good girl!" when she heads back to where she should be.
Sounds like you need to get out more. And let the cat out too.
@@orangewarm1why do you get that from this comment?
Whatever works. They know when they are loved or not loved, and when they know they are loved, they can put up with some crap.
I learned to respect a cat’s boundaries. I got on the floor with a Tom cat and he rolled on his back with me. He was a really cool Tom Cat. The family got a new house and moved away. I feed stray cats in the garage they moved in. These cats roam all over the town. I prefer outdoor cats because they play with the birds. 😻😻😻😻😻😻❤️ Miaow.
My cats hate the sound of the vacuum cleaner, and the sound of thunder.
They love to listen to soft sounding music, even heavy metal, (provided the sound isn't blasting the roof off the house).
Declawing is cruel.
Cats naturally shed their claws.
A goog scratch pole helps.
My cats have never scratched my furniture, as they use, and love their 8 poled " cat gymnasium", that has loads of tiered ledges, and hiding places.
I'm always finding little "half moon" shedded claws round the place.
My formerly feral kitty, trap,spay,release. Clip eared beauty. Few months of coexisting?Year 5? All the love. Last fall? She was with me on my tiny patio. Attacked a corgi who had the AUDACITY to lunge and bark at me. ❤😺🙀
Number 10, when a wanted to make friend with a cat that often spends time in my garden under shrubs, I let a sick I had worn all day outside. I figured since it's all about scent, like dogs, it was worth a go.It has been a huge sucess, and just let them approach me, or not, without any sounds of movement. Now if they see me, they will run across the lawn and over to me. I'm new to experiencing positive time with a cat, as I was scratched as a child and have avoided them. Met a friendly cat, a year ago, then researched lots on you tube since, to understand their body language, to minimise chances of getting scratched again.
" I let a sick I had worn all day outside" wat

One of my cats always watches me when I vacuum. But she keeps about a 4 to 6 foot buffer. The other one runs away, but always returns when the vacuum is off. I have several carpeted automobile floor mats around the house. The cats use them as scratching posts. I also have a cat tree. After 2 years, my furniture is still intact. Happy Easter!
What a great idea! I'm going to buy a set of car mats today 💕- thanks

I take a little nail file when she’s in my lap to smooth them out a little. It helps and she doesn’t mind much
Wow. An actually useful cat tips video. Well done.
If you have no tolerance for cat scratching then you do not need to have a cat
I usually wake my cat up when he makes noises while napping. I worry he is having a nightmare.
Sometimes he wakes and looks annoyed. Sometimes he wakes and looks relieved and greatful and seems happy I am there.
I am not a pet owner, but I find this very interesting. If I ever have a cat I will try to respect the cat in these ways.
I hate the "funny" videos online that are really just cruel. 😡
I have a spray bottle. Ive had it and my cat for 2 years. My cat's been actually sprayed twice in two years. But, but the their have been 100's of incidents where I can stop a bad behavior by just reaching for the bottles. He stops, not traumatized and somtimed he stopss, comes over and jumps on my lap. How you use spray bottles is the secret.
Same. All i have to do is reach for the spray bottle.
@@avalerie4467 Yep, and since I say "Hey" or "No" every time, he now often stops with just the word, and I reward him lavishly for that.

Thanks for posting this, I learned a few things here.
'Like'd and 'Subscribed'.
I’m hoping declawing is no longer performed, it’s been shown to be horrifyingly painful and crippling to cats.
Agreed
I think you can overdo this list of yes and no stuff. Declawing is obviously horrible. But I've had over 27 cats in my life, and have had up to 10 at a time. I now have 6. From time to time I squirt or swat them, though usually because one of them is picking on another. And I yell. Often. They look at me like, "who died and made you king?" and mostly ignore me. Sometimes I roar and act like a monster trying to get them. They run, but not very fast or very far, and it is more like a game. And each one demands attention in one way or another, from jumping on my lap to sleeping on the bed or yowling for attention. All will eventually come to me with their tail up if I call their name enough.
Still, I don't pick them up. They do not like that. I don't normally hug or hold them. And it is important to get them used to touching their feet when they are kittens. I gently hold on their tails, but not so tightly they can't easily pull them free. They don't mind that. All of mine let me pet their bellies and don't react aggressively. And there is no hard play. If something makes them panic and use teeth and claws, I holler. They look at me like, "oh, what did I do?" and let go. Never respond to that with force.
THINKING of Buying or Keeping a Cat? Before anyone keeps a cat they really need to understand the animals psychological makeup. They need to respect the cat's individual and unique characteristics. They need to spend time developing a bond and earning trust. A cat is not a baby human or a cuddly toy, it is a small predator, a beautiful and majestic creature with tremendous abilities and almost supernatural powers. To keep a cat is not to own it, but to care for it and to insure that it's specific needs are met. You will find that if the cat that you have chosen, choses you, you will have a friend and a companion for it's whole sensitive life!
Thanks for your information!
My cat is hopelessly stupid. In order to show him who's boss here, I spend hours holding my apartment ownership certificate in front of his eyes, but he doesn't seem to understand...
Nice video! I have 3 wonderful cats and my black cat has a territory "problem".... All couches and blankets are his territory! 😅😅😅
Thank you so much! 😊 It sounds like your black cat has quite the personality, claiming all the cozy spots as his own kingdom. 😅 But hey, that's part of their charm! Thanks for sharing your story with us!
“Life with Malamutes “ needs to watch this for there cat “Milo”…he is so stressed out
thanks a LOT for the USEFUL information and to be COMPLETELY honest i did do and/or PROBABLY will SOMEWHAT like cats
What if you wake up from a dream yelling & your cat jumps off the bed in fear of the yelling they never knew their owner was capable of?
Thanks for sharing
I was so glad that my cat dosent let me touching me is none of these reason I hope we can have a better connection in the future
(Also is 2 cats)
Declawing is the worst thing possible to do to a cat. If you don't want the scratching, get a dog. Declawing is outright torture.
very good post, thank you!
My 6 month old kitten is a bitey scratchy monster at times but he’s just learning. He’s getting more gentle in his attacks😂 He will keep lunging at me but keeps his claws in. Mostly. He’s just being a cat, practicing.
neat video.. some great info, i knew little about,, thanks much enlightenment, in showing things i didn't know...
Excellent video!
My kitty loves going for walks he likes the snow. I trained him (Happy) with a cat harness. Took some time but he got used to it. Can't wait to go outside when I get home.
I moved into a house where one roommate had a cat she described as standoffish. She suggested I give the cat space, so I did.
About two weeks later, I was standing in the kitchen talking to someone and felt something on my leg. I looked down and it was the cat rubbing my leg.
I knew right then I'd won Bella over.
Be kind to animals. Be kind to each other. Declawing should be illegal everywhere as should ear and all mutilation, too. #adoptrescuefoster #dontshop #spayneuter #greederssuck
I love my cat who will be 4 years old in May 2024.
His little life is so important to me.
He was given to me a year after my husband died of Cancer in 2018.
Without my cat, I would be totally alone.
I love him and I know he loves me.
We are so close.
If anything ever happened to him I know I would fall apart.
He is like my little baby.
My cat can whatever the hell he wants, hes such good boy, loveable, funny, he.just turned 10 this past Dec and he acts like he's 2yrs old lol hes the Greatest thing to ever come into our lives...Pickles, we LOVE YOU BOY 😂❤😻
I miss my cat
Declawing is very painful and it’s banned in the UK
We have trimmers that have a little hole in them and it stops cutting to close .
Yes, never use hands as toys. It's cute when they are tiny creatures, but I am glad I never did it with my now 20-pounder!
I’ve never had a cat scratch my furniture. I give them a cat tree, and everything is fine.
Declawing should be illegal in the USA.
I wonder why it's illegal in only the southern part of Canada.
When he said the cucumber thing,i lost it😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you for posting all this information on what should NOT be done to cats --- as you say, the internet is full of bad human behavious to cats, mostly due to thoughtlessness and ignorance, so I hope more and more people watch this and decide to be enlightened!♥
Declawing should be illegal
It already is in some countries I think
My cat is not afraid of a cucumber. He just wants to play with it it’s so cute !!! ☺️
Teasing a cat is very wrong and can be physically painful (for you). I've had a few experience with cats that I had over my lifetime when I teased them a little too much at a given time. Cats will come to a (point of no return) if you tease them to the point of pissing them off. They will launch an attack back at you. My cats would start to come at me with a body language that says "Alright, so you wanted to push my buttons?!" "Now I'm getting you back for it!". They start to approach you in a threatening and boss like way. They intend to scratch and/or bite you to get their revenge. They will not stop till they accomplish that. On three separate occasions and a different cat each time, they all did this.
Bottom line, is don't piss your cat off. They won't forget the issue and they will try to get you back for it, even if you're cat doesn't have tendencies to be vigilant or vengeful.
Cats indeed have a unique way of setting boundaries and teaching us respect, don't they? Your experiences definitely highlight the importance of understanding our furry friends' limits. Cats, much like us, have their patience threshold, and once crossed, they make it known in the most "cat-like" fashion possible. Thanks for sharing your insight; it’s a valuable lesson for all cat parents out there. Let’s keep the peace and the purrs coming! 🐱💕
I've cats and have always had their bowls separated since one horks down his food, the other eats just a little at a time. The latter I feed upstairs. Once the door to the room at the top of the stairs was closed and I stepped on the cat as she was waiting for me to open it and set her food down. To this day, years later, she refuses to stay on the stairs with me if the door up top is closed.
My cat is happy with the vacuum cleaner. She lets me clean round her then just moves so a can do the place she has been lying on.
She used to worry when I removed her water fountain to clean it. Now she knows its only being serviced by her staff.
so basically they are gods and want to be treated as such
My dad could scream the whole house together and our tuxedo cat just laid there chilling.
My Boys sere brothers. I got them at 9 weeks. Too young to not love and be happy. Quirky, indepenxant and totally devoted.
About a year go, Smokey took to hiding in cabinets. I made all of the cat proof but he got into one at every opportunity. He stopped abd camd back to my lap, a good thing. About 4 months ago I found a ball shaped growth in Big Smokey' throat. Just the feel was terrifying.
I wasn't sure whst was wrong with Shay-Shay but sometbing was. He wasnt playing. He was a nut about catnip but he no longer really enjoying it.
I talked to Vet bc taking them in a carrier anywhere was impossible. You know the verdict, cancer.
Perhaps if this had been my 1st cats Id have donr fifferently. But they were not that, nor likely last. I've has cats for 72 years, many of them. I was fortunate my grandaughter's friend is a Vet. She came to me and , confirmed both diagnosis, cancer and a bad heart condition, she helped them depart for the Rainbow Bridge..
I believe, after almost 3 months their spirits are still around me. Cats are funny.. They don't all stay but the ones who do let you know.
I still cry almost every day. I knoe they are better off but I miss them terriy. After 18 years, my house is terriblg empty.
I know now, i will get another. I realy want siblings and young. What hlds me back is. at 80 whose gets them if I cant take care if them. With aged cats, I always
.thought they would go with me. Obviously, I didnt ask God. He plans while we are thinking we should.
I know the feelng of losing your 1st. We've list manh animals in past few years. Tge answer to why is thry age as we do. When you live them as companions abd family, theyu live long.
My daughter's horse dued 2 yrs ago at 27. She had expectex t have him for another 5 to 10 years.
The remains of their presence in our lives is love. I will find another and, hopefully, we can be together for another 18 years. God willing. If not, I still thank Him and all my 4-foot loves for being wonderful companions for my life..
Keep loving and it will be returned in a millions ways.
God bless your tender heart.
Cats are so beautiful
Never had an issue with cats clawing furniture, was simple every time cat put paws on furniture I moved cat to scratching post that I had rubbed with catnip and gave them a treat, within a day cat would put paws on scratching post then look at me waiting for a treat. 🤣
Find it neat how our cat will bite our long sleves but only acts like shes going to bite when we have on short sleeves
Never Tease your cat with a laser pointer👎 (you might think it's funny) but the cats instinct to hunt and not catch
to feel their claws into something is like someone dangling a $100.00 bill just out of your reach 😪😹
I tie some rolled up toilet paper to an old shoe lace and play with Jackson so he can catch it with his claws and
chew on It makes him feel I got It.😻 (Cats will not digest toilet they just spit it out)
I Have 3 Indoor Kitties Myself 😻😻😻‼️ And Their Name's Are Blizzard Rosie And Coco Kitty!!! I Would Never Ever Have My Precious Little Kitties Declawed!!! I Love Them ALL To Bit's!!! Yes There Are Some Claw Marks On My Furniture But I Don't Give A Freaking RIP About That At ALL PERIOD!!! My Kitties Come First And Foremost Before My Stuff!!! Shalom And Amen!✝️✝️🛐🛐😇🌟🤗🙏🙏🙏🇨🇦🇮🇱♾️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🗽🦅‼️
I had adopted a young cat and a couple of months later, I decided to adopt another one for company. This new cat was a little kitten 3 months old. I introduced the 2 very gradually but it didn't work out very well at all. In fact the first adopted cat was very agressive towards the kitten and I was very unsure whether I could keep the poor little kitten. I called the lady of the Animal Protection Society from whom I had adopted both cats to find a solution. She solved the problem very easily : catch the urine from the older cat and rub it over the body of the new cat. That worked perfectly - the older cat recognised the kitten as part of his family and peace came back between the two. If you are having the same problem, try this !!!!
I had to have the end bone of my toe cut off due to a type of cancer in the nail. Every steps I take is painful after, and even 10 years + . Imagine a cat 4 paws that way! It’s pure cruelty!
Declawing an indoor/outdoor cat would be like sending a hunter into the forest with the first knuckle of their fingers and toes removed without a rifle and expect them to take down a deer. Good luck on that.
Buy a scratching post or have some trees around they can scratch outdoors. I've had cats my whole life and, yes, they will scratch furniture but it's not that big of a deal. Furniture has to be replaced anyway just from human use too.
My cat hates the gardeners that come to do our complex. Especially the lawn mower and whipper snipper noises. They were here today and she was outside. She literally climbed the screen door trying to get in away from the noise. I bring her in and close the doors and windows and she hides u der my bed or behind the couch. I talk to her the whole time while they are here. When she is outside and I need her to come in I give her one of those tubes with the lick treats. She loves them.
NEVER DECLAW !
Thx i love my fur babies. True story. A neighbor told me a skunk made a nest in his Have A Heart humane trap n the skunk was trspped in it. I told him to b v quiet n no sudden moves and i slowly approached the trap he was pacing back n forth. So i gently n quietly told the skunk i was going to release him so please dont spray me. I was surprised but he didnt spray me. I got the door open and he looked at me n just went on his way i guess to his family n my neighbor had no more problems with them.
Cats can remember back 7 year's. I have never had a problem training a cat to stay off the counter, stove, or table.
And I never used a spray bottle.
I never bother my cat Peggy when she is sleeping or I never raise my voice or run the vacuum cleaner around her I never disapline my cat im 48 years old my mom is 75 years old and my father ia 76 and we spoil our cat and we would nevee do any of these things and IM GLAD im giving her a good loving home.we respect her.100% oh and we let her have her space and time alone.
