and Iâm always looking for advice on that oneâone of
my older cats canât stand BB & is so brutal with him that I have to keep
them seperated. Any ideas on getting her to just let him be is always
more than gratefully accepted!
that is the exact thing that happened with Mona...when I
brought her in...we went on for like 4-6 months I think before I felt I could
trust her....she was viscious....I tried everything..what ended up working was I
had to crate her for several weeks..in the room with all the others loose.
then I took her out on a leash, with my friendliest cat and dog loose, she did
well until I decided to take the leash off..adn leave just the harness on..one
fight and I put her back in the crate..for about a week I
think..then..again..just like before...leashed...then I just dropped the
leash...but left it on her..tehn I let her off...she did pretty well that
time..she would stalk the others..curisously but never attacked them...and
whenever she would get a little "pissy" a sharp hiss from me..of a
loud..negative sound would snap her out of it...and things have been going
really well since then...I also REALLY BELIEVE this helped out alot..I spoke to
her..plain as day, and thought to her ALOT...."if you cant learn to be nice..you
will not live here..I will find you another home, if you ever hurt any of the
others..ESSPECIALLY Akira..you will be out of my door."..ever since I finally
let Akira loose Mona hasnt laid a paw on her..in fact..Akira is a little witch
to her..and all she does is Hiss and run away....she has been VERY good with
Akira...
