A dilemma. The cats behaviour:
Uses the shower as a toilet
Uses bathmat as toilet
Uses beds as toilet
Has a litter tray
Won't go outside in a normal cat manner but climbs out of high windows whenever gets a chance, gets stuck
Bullies other larger older cat constantly to the point where I think other cat has basically left home
Bites us violently when excited
Will not let anyone fall asleep, or sleep past 6am
Gets agitated if doors are closed on it (so, your bedroom door)
Constantly asking for food
Steals food constantly and Destroys food items (like loaves of bread that it doesn't eat)
Becomes very vicious when you worm/flea
Climbs on you constantly over and over but won't settle down
Licks itself obsessively
My DD would be upset to rehome her.
But I am the main carer for cat and I am at my wits end. I work full time and just don't think the cat is happy. I don't know how to get the cat to go out or stay outside either. It's only 4yo so I could have another 10 years of Bad Kitty. I can't afford pet behaviourist I don't think, and I am at the point where I don't feel affection because she is such hard work. I've tried Feliway and it doesn't help
But then I don't want to upset my daughter or contribute to overloaded cat shelters either.
AIBU to keep a cat just for my DD, or AIBU to find it a new home?
