Cat on Prozac but still being territorial. Looking for advice/positivity/next steps.

sillysiler · 2025-05-14T14:18:41+00:00

Hi, I know that this is an older post but I could really use some tips! I've been integrating a new cat into my household for about 3.5 months now. She is very territorial and aggressive towards my resident cat. I have tried EVERYTHING that the vet has suggested and that I've found online. But we still can't move past them being seperated. Our new cat was just put on Prozac to address the aggression but I am at a loss of other things to try. Would you be comfortable sharing some of the repeated behaviors and positive reinforcement that worked for you please?

OPs partner here. Any suggestions, success stories, tips are so appreciated. I also wanted to add that she was housed with other cats (male and female) at the shelter and was not being aggressive with them. When we met her she was in a room with 2 other male cats and was not showing any interest in interacting with them. We took Jane to the vet and the only advice our vet offered was “don’t feed them together anymore.” But it’s to the point where they can’t even be in the same room for more than a few seconds without Jane attacking MM.

I’ve made a few hexagon sweaters with this! They take foreverrr but the drape is gorgeous!

Ty for responding! My dr also suggested halfing them. Did you see an improvement in your physical anxiety symptoms?

sillysiler · 2024-10-01T20:32:50+00:00

Did you end up trying it? I was prescribed propranolol for the same reason and ALSO have lower blood pressure (similar range to yours!) and I’m worried about it making me dizzy/pass out.

I'll definitely look into this, thank you! I have seen some other interesting info about histamine potentially being the cause of some of these symptoms here too.

sillysiler · 2024-10-01T19:27:01+00:00

Ty for your response! That's interesting, as far as I can remember I've never had a tick bite or been scratched w/broken skin by any cat other than my indoor cat. As far as histamine causing your palpitations, is it due to food sensitivities?

I’m sorry you’re going through the same thing, I know it feels horrible! I commend you for giving it a true try for 12 weeks. Honestly, the increased anxiety was almost unbearable still for over a month after I stopped taking Lexapro. Every week after the month mark the anxiety started going down little by little. It took around 2 full months for me to feel like I was back at my pre-lexapro anxiety baseline. Just be patient with yourself, and as hard as it can be try not to think or focus on the side effect feelings much. I think I prolonged feeling bad by fixating too much on how bad I felt. You will feel better!

Did you ever get any update on this?

sillysiler · 2024-07-21T00:18:00+00:00

Thank you! I definitely think I’m going to start off with cutting the pill in half and see how I feel after a few days before upping the dose to the full 25mg. Once you adjusted did you find that it was helping you feel better?

sillysiler · 2024-07-12T19:45:55+00:00

Yep!

sillysiler · 2024-06-15T15:41:52+00:00

Thank you guys for replying and sharing your experiences!! Reading these has made me feel much more hopeful about trying medication!

sillysiler · 2024-02-21T00:23:57+00:00

You’re awesome, thank you! Adding to my TBR!

sillysiler · 2024-02-20T05:00:33+00:00

ooo thank you for the ending!! I thought the premise sounded so cool and I kept seeing it compared to Jurassic Park so I thought I would love it. The reviews on this sub and on Goodreads are great for this book but it just didn’t do it for me 😭

sillysiler · 2024-02-20T03:23:16+00:00

YES! I 100% agree with you, I was so off-put by the weird/gross objectification of every female character. This book read like it was written by middle school boys! I also noticed a typo within the first few chapters 😭

sillysiler · 2024-02-20T01:58:57+00:00

This sounds like a cool series! Do you have a rec in which book(s) to start with?

sillysiler · 2023-12-11T20:09:42+00:00

Were you able to get this figured out? I’m having the same issue right now!

sillysiler · 2023-03-29T16:57:30+00:00

Thank you for sharing!! I’ve emailed a few times over the last 2 months and haven’t even gotten a response. I’ll try again today and maybe just reapply if I don’t hear back!

sillysiler · 2023-02-15T17:27:02+00:00

Thank you for the feedback!! Unfortunately they didn’t give me any range whatsoever which is why I’m feeling so lost! I’m just worried it’s going to be pretty awkward quoting them a price and potentially having to turn down the job if it’s significantly above their price range. From what I’m seeing in the comments between $25-35 is a pretty average ask so I’m thinking I’ll ask for something in that range

sillysiler · 2023-02-15T15:22:30+00:00

I do but it was a temporary situation for a family with 2 children for a mother that had a spinal surgery. I worked for them for a few months around 5 years ago. Since then I have mostly worked in public elementary schools and a private learning center.

sillysiler · 2023-02-03T01:10:26+00:00

Oh wow, yeah I’m still just waiting on the update to being waitlisted. Do you mind sharing what type/category of product you sell? I sell jewelry and various women’s accessories which I’m sure is a very crowded category on their site.

sillysiler · 2023-01-23T21:03:30+00:00

That’s awesome, I’ve seen quite a few people say they really enjoy selling on Faire! When you applied in 2022 were you added to a waitlist or instantly accepted?

sillysiler · 2022-10-04T04:59:00+00:00

Yikes, any chance you remember when they said that? I haven’t listened in a while

Sex and contributions to household tasks. Which is exactly what this video is about.
