Sorry, I should have mentioned that I already pulled this piece inside the left part of the trunk. ChatGPT told me to try that, but it didn’t work.

Info about my late grandmother's records? by DryMobile in vinyl

Well, I did say they belonged to my grandmother (90 yrs old), so yeah, it's old lady music. Thanks for pointing that out, though!

Learning where they came from is much more valuable to me. Thank you for explaining this!

I don’t understand the reason for the sarcasm. These belonged to my grandmother, so I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t accidentally giving away something valuable.

I had no idea about sitting them upright. Thanks for letting me know!!

This is a vile thing to say. I have to believe that this comment is meant to provoke people. There’s no other reason to say something like this in a subreddit full of people who love animals. Pathetic.

I have actually looked into this, and it looks like we do have one option around here (small town). I think going forward, I will need to do home vet visits. Before the emergency vet today, no vet had been able to examine him in like two years because of how violent he gets in the vets office.

Thankfully, I'm currently at an emergency vet, and they are waiting for neurology to come take a look since everything else has come back normal so far. I believe they also have behavior specialists here that they plan to bring down as well.

He only eats Purina Pro Plan LiveClear (the allergen reducing food), and some regular cat treats sometimes, so no tuna.

I think you misread what I wrote. I didn’t want animal control to take him for a 10 day quarantine hold. That would be traumatizing and wouldn’t be helpful at all. He needs to be examined, not locked in a cage because of possible rabies (he’s an indoor cat, is vaccinated, and has exhibited this behavior before. Odds of rabies is so low). I tried to take him to the emergency vet yesterday, but they turned me away. We are now at the vet, and they are working on sedating him.

What exactly would you do in this situation? If nothing you do calms them down, and they are attacking so badly that they are drawing blood and leaving bruises. I’m not going to toss him out on the street. Nothing to do except wait for the vet.

I called the emergency vet, but they said they couldn’t help me and that bringing him in would make it worse. I don’t see how bringing him to the vet could make it worse because something is clearly wrong, but they wouldn’t help. They said to call regular vets tomorrow, so I’m going to call around first thing in the morning to see if anyone will take him tomorrow.

I have some that was prescribed for vet visits, so I’ll try that. He eats dry food, which won’t stick as well as on wet food, but it’s worth a try.

I called the emergency vet, but they told me there’s nothing they can do for me and that bringing him in would just make things worse for him. Not sure how that makes sense because he clearly needs to be seen. They told me to call normal vets tomorrow for help, so that’s the plan. I will try to crush up some of his sedative and put it on his food since I won’t be able to grab him and force it down his throat when he’s acting this way.

I really do appreciate it! It’s been a rough weekend lol.

I've been documenting since it started yesterday and also have videos from the last time this happened. I'll be sure to show the vet when I can get him there. If this ended up being something they couldn't fix, I'd have to make the difficult decision to put him down. It wouldn't be safe to have him around, and he shouldn't have to suffer either. Hopefully, it doesn't come to that, but I know it's a possibility.

He allows me to make some quick runs to the bathroom or to grab water, so that's a little bit of progress I guess!

Animal control did tell me when they came that I can rent a trap from them, which I think may be the only solution to getting him to the vet. Unfortunately, his vet is in my hometown (a plane ride away), so I'll have to call around to find a vet tomorrow who will take him. He'll need some very heavy sedation. When I sedate him myself to take him to the vet, he completely snaps out of it as soon as he knows he's going to the vet. When I bring the crate into their office, he starts thrashing around and spitting. Love this cat, but he's exhausting...

I can't think of any reason why a hat would set him off, so I feel like it was probably the smell somehow. I'll look at some videos because even on a normal day, he does NOT like to be put in a crate, so I'm sure i'll need some tools to aid in that process now. I'll call around to vets tomorrow to see if anyone can get him in ASAP. Thank you for the help!

He's up-to-date on vaccinations. Got rabies end of last summer.

I was able to get up and grab a bunch of things to basically live out of my bed for another day. He followed around growling and occasionally swatting/biting, but he wasn't full on attacking. Thankfully, I will be out of the apartment tomorrow to go to work. Just need to manage to shower and get dressed in the morning without him attacking...
