We got him neutered like at 2 or 3 months. He sometimes makes bread and always lays on anything important! Clean laundry, my head, the iPad, the toilet, whatever I'm working on at the moment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1158347 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 09:47:14 +0000 bunnylove08 1158347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: did your male cat hump hand made knitted/crocheted things? My cat seems to like to make biscuits, hump and sleep on my projects </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1158330 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 09:38:03 +0000 anonysquire 1158330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: hahaha when my male cat was a kitten he dragged a pink boa with him everywhere, even slept with it. So cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1158310 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 09:30:08 +0000 bunnylove08 1158310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>sounds like a kitten. I think you may need to play with her more. Our cat Ozzy was a terror and a cuddle bug when he was a kitten. He would always be getting in to mischief. I'm glad we had our dog to play with him or else he would have been crazier. He would get a midnight crazies multiple times a night. </p> <p>I got Ozzy this extra long fleece wand toy and I was able to sit and wiggle it around and that helped burn off energy. He would jump and do flips. He loved that toy and we would have to hide it from him in a closet or else he will drag it around the house LOL </p> [attach=3066/13/muvca9.600x431.CatDancerWandToy.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1158070 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 08:03:19 +0000 anonysquire 1158070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is she spayed?</p> <p>Eta oh just saw you are doing it in 6 months. Good luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1158015 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 07:40:16 +0000 Fronkinzankinsbride 1158015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our sweet kitten that we hand raised from infancy has turned into a devil cat too. It's roigh but definitely a phase. She's three months now and I feel like she's learning a little every day. According to cat aging she is a toddler now, so shes acting like a toddler would. My only suggestion, and this is going to sound scary, but to get her another kitten to play with. Maybe one just slightly older than her. But kittens need play and it's great when they can play fight each other for hours and leave your hands, feet, arms, legs, hair, and noses alone. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1158014 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 07:39:38 +0000 gotkimchi 1158014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have 2 bengals and we put masking tape, sticky side up, on counters and other things we don't want them on. They'll jump on it once but don't like how it sticks to their feet! They're 3 now and are much more mellow! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157981 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 07:25:24 +0000 AmandaB8 1157981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup normal kitten behavior. Have you tried aluminum foil on the counters? That and tossing our kitten to the floor immediately were the only things that stopped her - though, I know for a fact that she'll still ocassionally get on the counters when we're not home ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157942 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 06:48:42 +0000 loveisstrange 1157942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like normal psycho kitten to me too. She'll probably mellow out a lot once she gets older and you spay her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157932 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 06:42:11 +0000 Dandelion 1157932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: I've been clipping his nails since we brought him home, so that did help with some destruction. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157926 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 06:37:58 +0000 StbHisMrs 1157926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: That gives me hope, we really don't want to rehome her, but have come so close. She's worse than our 2 year old ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157889 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 05:43:52 +0000 Dandelion 1157889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, sounds normal to me, too. Zeus was so crazy when he was little, my DH thought we were going to have to rehome him. But now that he's older, he still has cat antics, but he's much more well behaved than before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157870 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 05:09:19 +0000 StbHisMrs 1157870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well at least it's normal! She's not like any other kitten I've been around, or maybe like pain (and my ex husband) I've blocked out the memory ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157851 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 03:44:41 +0000 MamaJ 1157851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like normal crazy kitten behavior. My cat still thinks he is Spider-Man and climbs the walls and he is 5 years old now. The spray bottle never worked for us either because he loves water. I just learned to accept the fact that he is a weirdo cat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157842 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 02:54:34 +0000 StbHisMrs 1157842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: She's like a kitten on crack, I swear she's gonna go Spidey on me and start climbing the damn walls! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157827 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 02:21:41 +0000 .twist. 1157827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like a kitten. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/im-having-kitten-regret#post-1157724 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 23:26:24 +0000 StbHisMrs 1157724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our bengal kitten, Ali, is driving me insane. I surely hope this is a phase because I can't deal with it much longer. I knew what I was getting into when looking for a bengal but this behavior is brutal.<br /> She cries/howels constantly<br /> Runs out the door as soon as it opens<br /> Bites everything and anything that moves<br /> Attacks, scratches, bites your feet when they move<br /> Leaps up your leg, hip, stomach in order to get on your shoulders. She has hung from my stomach before, so freaking painful.<br /> Climbs up the curtains and shower curtains<br /> Jumps up ON TOP of the door<br /> Jumps in the bath tub when it's full!!<br /> Is constantly on the counter, we've tried it all, squirt bottle with water and vinegar (she just licks it off), tried saying no firmly, removing her, putting her in "time out".<br /> She steals your food too.<br /> I swear her teeth and claws are sharper than any other cat I've ever seen. She punctured my Starbucks plastic cup with the screw on lid and hard plastic straw. How?!!<br /> I can't wait until she's big enough for soft paws covers, I'll get shredded putting them on though.</p> <p>Then she can be super lovey, she likes my husband better though. Maybe she'll be better when we spay at 6 months. I want to love her but she's making it so difficult. My parents have her sister and she's a little calmer, could be all of our kids.</p> <p>I just needed to get that out, I feel so bad! </p>
