Desex your cat before it starts spraying
[QUOTE=xXDictatorXx;23404437]I don't like letting my cats out at night after we're all asleep :ohdear:[/QUOTE] why not? I've got a decade old exotic that eats when it feels like it, and goes outside whenever the fuck it wants. cats do not need babysitting. [QUOTE=PonceDeLeon;23410182]Make sure you take good care of it obviously. Feed it normally. If it feels like it's been in a bad mood lately, ie pissing/spraying on couches and whatnot, love on it. Spend more time with it. Try to brush it normally aswell. About twice a week, if you can. Isn't much more different than a dog. Good luck though.[/QUOTE] you don't show affection to a cat that's emotionally unstable, you dont want to feed that behavior

My cat often thinks about killing people, I'm afraid he's going to someday :(.
[QUOTE=Shadaez;23399146]A completely selfish thing done to the pet because you're too lazy to do things to prevent it isn't comparable to getting them neutered or spayed to prevent them from having tons of kittens. There's a reason that everyone tells you to spay and neuter, and everyone says to not declaw your cats. If you continue on you're obviously trolling. [url]http://declaw.lisaviolet.com/declawpics.html[/url] doesn't that look wonderful? :)[/QUOTE] Now you're just trolling. Declawing is as unhumane as neutering/spaying is. Hey lets cut an animals balls off! THAT'S O.K Hey lets cut an animals claws off! HOLY SHIT YOU FUCKING DISGUSTING BASTARD GO KILL YOURSELF. I don't see a difference in the two.
This thread made me want to get a cat. :smith:
[QUOTE=Shadaez;23410889]Stupid examples. My alternatives work out better for the cat and the people, but people are too lazy to regularly clip or shave their claws, or apply Soft Paws. The immunocompromised people gain no benefits from declawing either, a bite is just as, or more, harmful. The everyone I speak of is the growing number of places it is being outlawed at, including San Francisco.[/QUOTE] People do it not because their lazy, its because its cheaper in the long run. If you have to come home every day and clip their nails so they don't scratch shit, or replace caps so they don't scratch stuff, then your going to waste your time when you can do something more productive.

[i]Don't have a cat.[/i] Next you'll suggest the cat shouldn't be fed either because cat food is expensive or what?

At 7 bil you don't get to talk shit about overpopulation yo.
[QUOTE=BmB;23461724]At 7 bil you don't get to talk shit about overpopulation yo.[/QUOTE] I think select people should be neutered as well :). I'm planning on never having kids, btw. If I ever did it would be 2 MAX.
Funfact: Don't stroke the cat when its on heat.
[QUOTE=mr apple;23462533]Funfact: Don't stroke the cat when its on heat.[/QUOTE] I prefer to keep my cat off heat. Why would you need to heat your cat up?
[QUOTE=Shadaez;23462581]I prefer to keep my cat off heat. Why would you need to heat your cat up?[/QUOTE] It'll squirt pussy juice everywhere D: I remember when I had my last cat, I used to keep it outa my room because they squirt when they're hawny.
castrate it or it can be gone for months. don't let it outside your house until after 3 months. (the kitty don't know the way home before its 3 months old and if the cat is moved, it should be at the new home for 3 months so they know the way home
[QUOTE=mr apple;23462633]It'll squirt pussy juice everywhere D: I remember when I had my last cat, I used to keep it outa my room because they squirt when they're hawny.[/QUOTE] FYI it's "in heat", I was just joking.
In/On same chemistry applies when a man and a woman have sex.
People who say cats don't love you is bullshit I have two cats, one is kind of shy but loves to be held at times The other one [B]FUCKING LOVES ME[/B] The motherfucker won't leave me alone, and I love it. Comes to see me when I come home, runs to the door, sleeps on my bed, comes over and rubs his face on me when I'm watching TV Cats are great, fuck anyone who says otherwise. Just give the cat love, and it will do the same

Yeah I noticed that too

You should get another kitten so it has a fwend :3: Thats what i did anyway
[QUOTE=Shadaez;23392983]No, do not declaw it, you are sick. They literally cut the cats fingers off, to the first knuckle.[/QUOTE] You are obviously misinformed. They cut the claws out at a certain point so they can't grow back. They don't cut the fucking fingers. I watched them do it to both my cats, they were both fine and didn't even hiss or anything. I declawed mine [b](only on the front legs)[/b] because I also have a dog and I don't want them clawing it. They can still climb fine. I felt bad about doing it and didn't want to but many people recommended it because I have a dog too. I'm glad I did.
Bah, if they can't get along to the point where you need to do that you need to teach them some manners, not cut shit off.
[QUOTE=Akasori;23459312]This thread made me want to get a cat. :smith:[/QUOTE] Same here.
How is declawing anything close to cutting fingers off? It's more like cutting someone's nails. [editline]11:26AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Shadaez;23395087]I got my kitten at about 6-7 weeks and it already knew what to do :|. [editline]08:02PM[/editline] And it's a really messed up, and cruel, thing to do. It's really gross if you KNOW how it's done and get it done anyways, and you're a very terrible person.[/QUOTE] You're that annoying vegan that people hate from the other thread, right? What do you know
[QUOTE=FalconKrunch;23392320]If you want to give it milk, give it cat milk not human milk.[/QUOTE] You mean milk intended for humans, as in cow milk right? Because no way in hell I'll drink milk from actual women. OT: If it makes a sharp hissing sound, You might wanna check what you are standing on.

[url]http://declaw.lisaviolet.com/declawpics.html[/url] that transparent part is their nail, the opaque part is their "fingertip".

[QUOTE=Shadaez;23465553]Oh, it is? [url]http://declaw.lisaviolet.com/declawpics.html[/url][/QUOTE] Wow, link me shock images. Great strategy. [editline]12:52PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Shadaez;23462497]I think select people should be neutered as well[/QUOTE] Wow, you are a horrible person. They actually used to do that to poor people.
Oh god it's so shocking, showing you the truth. Don't claim you know what you're talking about, then. It is definitely more than their nail being cut off.
[QUOTE=StephenOrlov;23392346]Just treat it right. they sleep like 95% of the day anyways so they aren't a real big deal. I don't even feed mine when I leave for a few days, they just eat lizards and mice and stuff.[/QUOTE] Your cat is eating lizards and mice because it isn't being fed properly. It's sleeping lots because it's unwell due to eating lizards and mice.
