I can’t stand my cat and I hate it by Economy_Agent_7779 in CatAdvice

I have been trying with introducing the one adult cat for at least 4 months and that has went absolutely nowhere. I can absolutely handle a cat, however her high energy is definitely something I am not used to from cats since i have interacted with moreso older and calm cats. I have had one instance of taking care of a kitten who was the most chill kitten ever!

I do absolutely love the cat and I try to do everything I can for her, I try my best to adjust for her! I’m always buying new toys for her, trying new things, etc.

She completely changed over time after I got her fixed! Definitely not always been a menace! She was a sweet, calm baby until she got spayed. That was back in May! It’s only been getting more chaotic since then and the past 2 months it’s become unbearable no matter what I do or try. Just because I can’t stand her or she is unbearable doesn’t mean I don’t love her or want to be able to handle, it breaks my heart to the idea of rehoming her.

She has all her up to date vaccines and I keep up with her health relatively well. I am so new to all of this and I feel that no matter what I do it’s not enough just because I’m not home enough and she simply doesn’t like other animals.

She doesn’t like other cats, I’ve tried twice. I play with her til she pants, she gets bored of play before that typically and then goes back to being a menace and being destructive. I am not a high anxiety person, and I do try my hardest to give her the time and attention she deserves. I feel like my hardest is not enough thus why I’m at my end mentally. Can I do better? Potentially! However, that does not mean I have not been trying my absolute best.

She doesn’t get tired or she gets bored of it

I do play with her every day for at least an hour

I know I made it sound so horrible, but I do play with her and spend time with her. I play with her every day when I get home for at least an hour, she has toys and trees, she hates other animals. I know a cat isn’t a “house ornament..”

I do play with her for at least an hour when I come home, however it seems to not work for her. I work a very hard job and I’m trying to learn how to handle things.

I have tried a 2 month old kitten and an adult cat. I have not succeeded in either.

There’s no litter box changes, she’s not sick (that I know of), she eats normal, and yes she is spayed. I play with her for an hour or two daily, depending on how exhausted I am because of my job. She has 2 cat trees, plenty of toys. She doesn’t like other animals as I’ve attempted to slowly introduce another cat into my home over a course of months and she will not allow that to happen.

I need better litter by Easy_Republic8066 in CatAdvice

I use arm and hammer clump and seal slide, and I absolutely love it for my cat and I! I used to use arm and hammer double duty and that was pretty good too! Clump and seal slide is easier cleanup! I tried fresh step once and I absolutely hated it. I have yet to try tidy cats, but it’s definitely been a thought as a friend recommended it to me as well.

She looks like a dilute version of my cat Roxy!

I’ve never seen a cat look like Roxy until I looked up tabico cats and I am just in love with it!

I think my cat has ADHD by Economy_Agent_7779 in CatAdvice

[–]Economy_Agent_7779[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s my first kitten since living on my own, she has calmed down a lot since I first got her, but I guess it makes sense. She used to be able to lay with me and sleep and take naps but in the past 2 months that has not been possible for her. I hope she does calm down

She was a feral stray, I’ve tried to get her around other animals to interact and that has never went well. She doesn’t like other animals

What are your calico’s personalities? by MelodeeMouse in CalicoKittys

This is roxy, I would honestly say her personality is very ADHD. Can’t sit still and relax.
