I got spit in the face....
Edited on Mon Dec-08-08 11:04 AM by skooooo
...by my angry cat because he didn't want me to move him. So he hissed, and sprayed me in anger!

Silly cat!! Has that ever happened to you? It was kind of funny really.

1. You're lucky it was saliva. My mother-in-law's psychotic cat, Bünz,
got peeved at her over a cat food matter and backed up to her leg, raised his tail and gave her another kind of spray. She had to get rid of the jeans she was wearing. x(

3. Bünz is my cat's uncle. He and his sister, Minz, were adopted
from a farm on the alp near here by my mother-in-law when they way too young to be weaned. Bünz, who was neutered when he was about a year old, always has been a nervous cat, but not really psychotic until his sister/litter mate had kittens. Something about the kittens drove Bünz around the bend. I love cats, and I even love Bünz -- but I'm not thrilled when I have to be alone with him. He's the kind of cat who'll just suddenly attack a person outta the blue. :scared:

12. My Monster will attack when he gets mad. He's calmed down quite a bit
since he first adopted me. Now it is only about once a month that he attacks. He's very affectionate otherwise. Love that silly guy to death.

11. One of my roommates had a cat like that.
Except it wasn't just in the morning for food, it was whenever he felt like it, for seemingly no other reason than he just felt like it.

He'd chase us around and bite our ankles. :wtf:

13. Bünz TOTALLY does that. I don't know whether it's attention-seeking behavior or what,
but he's making luvvy "hrrrrrrrrrrrrr, purrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" the whole time he attacks my feet. It's gotten so bad that when I visit my mother-in-law, I bring a handful of Royal Canin Exigent (for "fussy cats") dry cat food to distract him so that I can walk through her living room. :scared:

4. Nope, never. StirFry is pretty unwilling to go into his carrier
for trips to the v-e-t. But he's never hissed or spit because of it. He just spreads all his legs out and extends his claws so that he doesn't fit in the hole and yowls like a sumbitch. Little twirp.

6. Ginger's exactly like that. Not a violent bone in his body.
He's so mellow that our goddaughters called him "sack of poatoes" when they were little, because they could lug him around under one arm without a single complaint. But he _loathes_ the cat taxi. It's funny, because once we get in the vet's examining room and the cat taxi is open, he's back to Mr. Mellow again. :shrug:

9. Yep, that's StirFry to a tee.

Big, sweet mellow kitty. Once he gets to the vet, he's all purrs, he's remarkably well behaved and laid back again.

5. with a pet cat? No. Most Felix does is put his ears back, bare his teeth and make a whining
annnnhhhhhhhh sound.
