Evil Cat Need Help

[Furry_Wolf]

Ok i have a cat who is going on 2 and thinks shes a dog - The Problem i need advice on is she scratches my hands and arms constantly like shes trying to kill me I know shes little and doesnt understand its not ok but i cant keep ending up with all these scratches on me, I flick her nose when she does it iv even smacked her like my uncle *hes a vet* told me would teach her but nothing seems to get through to her Please i really need ideas on how to make my cat more lax and to get her to stop with the scratching *no animal based med's or something that can really hurt her please*

Well normally there's a reason behind a cat being properly antisocial. But then it all depends on the severity. Getting a ton of scratches from a cat who's playing is normal, but if it's proper violent hissing angry attacks, then you have to figure out why she's like that. Maybe she doesn't like being stroked, or maybe she's afraid.

She thinks shes a dog and she ain't afraid but when she plays she doesn't scratch she will play bite but otherwise shes biting like shes gona eat you and scratching like if ur the devil and she loves to be petted and picked up ect. she doesn't hiss and VERY rarely does she meow and its only when she don't like something or is in pain. hence shes evil and i need ideas to make he more shall we say "obedient"

But thanks for the imput

I had a friend with a cat named "Pumpkin" she was an evil cat as you say too, doing all those things except she wasn't that obnoxious, preferred to keep to herself unless she wanted to attack your feet while trying to eat at the table . All I can suggest is avoid evil kitty.

Wait, so... she doesn't scratch when she plays, and she loves being picked up and petted, so when exactly is she scratching?

I know some people who have had cats who 'act like dogs' (Although according to my psychological theories I think that cats and dogs don't have a set personality, like saying a guy is being like a girl because he likes pink, that's just something someone had made a connection to and now everyone views it as a definite truth.)

Spray bottles work on dogs if you want to try that, although you might get clawed ad and bitten more....

And maybe he'll grow out of it, if he's still young he's probably just energetic and still doesn't know how to behave, give it time....

(Also, the dark purple text one the forum's color is difficult to read.... )

Also, maybe some cat nip can mellow that cool cat out man..... or at least make him stop scratching at you for a bit.
