Grrrrr!


Just a bit of a vent really - on another forum a woman has a Siamese who's begun to attack strangers (as well as her and her husband, though them only outdoors). She has a small child and is understandably upset that her child may bring over friends and the cat might attack them.

So what's her solution? Oh, if she can't find a way to modify his behaviour she will have him put to sleep.



Words cannot express my rage at this point. I've made a slightly snarky comment explaining that the breeder should not only be willing to take him back but insist on it if she can't modify his behaviour, and that she can rehome him otherwise, with or without a rescue. The cheek of some people!

Re: Grrrrr!


Everyone who's replied so far has pointed out the alternative options, so hopefully she'll come to her senses...

Re: Grrrrr!


Sounds like she doesnt want the cat anyway, so she is using the behaviour as an excuse to get rid?
