Speak your cats language.

If the cat takes a swing at you...
take one at him.

Evidently its the language he speaks...

cat aint got no respect for a whimp.

I run a music studio...cat got under the console and was playing with
wires chewing scratchin..and so on...weee weeee..

boom...I got him with a single leaf of rolled up newspaper....

he has never done that again...(those electrical wires could kill
him...I just made him mad...but he never done it again).

One time, when I first got this super large cat..he tried to slice my
ear off...very aggressive..ears layed back...growlin the whole
bit...first I popped him...made him even more mad..

he kept flaylin at me...then I grabbed him behind the neck and lifted
his front feet off the floor..then in a firm voice..i say

CALM DOWN! #$@#$ ...CALM DOWN!@#@#$@ after about 40 seconds...
he got his wit and calmed down...

and has never ever taken another swing at me. he tucks me in every
night...walks around my blanket...tucks tucks...finally finds a spot up
close...and we sleep till morning. (this is true...he loves to tuck my
blanket in all around...) i tell you the truth..

one morning the cat woke me up licking my feet (dont tell nobody about
this...)...he was licking my feet..

what woke me up was he was trying to bite a calous off...go figure!

hoooo cat hoooo...thats my foot man!

One minute before you posted this you were taking
the OP seriously and posting a response. WTF is wrong with you? *shaking my
head*

You're losing it.

All that head shaking has turned your brain to mush. Once again you
prove what a useless moron you are and that the nastiness you post to
others really applies to yourself.

Karen was responding to someone else in a *different thread* who has a
pretty serious problem with cat aggression.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one

splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."

Oops. I guess you idiots are all starting to run together for me. I knew it
would happen once you lost my interest.
bigbadbarry@adelphia.net - 19 Apr 2005 05:39 GMT
Declawing?

Mine is as good as de-clawed..seeing that
we have an understanding. Done.

As for my poor, poor little Ruprecht

He might need to climb a tree to escape a dog,
or scratch an itch...

You seem to be getting dumber as time goes on. At first I thought Grant's
death had you depressed but now I am just not sure.

Sounds like you have worked out a relationship. I hope you never
feel like you have to "pop" him again.
bigbadbarry@adelphia.net - 19 Apr 2005 05:09 GMT
Yeah, he's super cool, he is fantastic company.

I didnt like our little scirmage...but, as I say...
he has never ever taken another swing at me...

He sliced my earlobe very deep...the scar is still there..
hot blood was running down my neck...

whoever called me a troll...what would you have done...

"now kitty...we don't slice masters ears off..."

cat dont respect that..cat dont care...cat will do it again...
next time cat might come across them eyeballs...

Cats are not diplomatic..they are blood thirsty carnivores.

I brought a peice of steak in the house...
out of curosity...

I cut a big chunk of bloody meat off and called jr.

oh man...first he did a double take on me...like what?
then...like he had never had none...

he didnt stop till it was gone...

next scene..he's sitting back with a bloody muzzle..
and a toothpick...while rubbing his belly..

"I say, Barry...that was some prime cow man!, Yes
very tender"

as he was walking out..he looked back like..

wake me up when it's time to eat again.

I didn't think you did.

> he has never ever taken another swing at me...

I did the same thing with my mean cat--slapped her
when she bit hard, but by "slapping" I mean tapping
her on the side of the face gently but rudely, if that
makes sense. She then stopped biting so hard when
playing and if I said "Ow!" stopped altogether and
licked me. It only took a few times to get her to stop
drawing blood.

Barry, I think you are replying to me, but I can't
tell. If you include a snippet of the post to which you are
responding, we can tell who it is.

> He sliced my earlobe very deep...the scar is still there..

I had a cat once that bit me to the bone and sent
me to the hospital just because I picked her up
the same as every morning but that morning she
was in a mood.

> whoever called me a troll...what would you have done...

Don't mind the old biddies here, or the ones who would
like to moderate an unmoderated Usenet group.

Well, yes and no. They are also creatures that love you and
need affection, right?

those are of me...but I think you was talking about the cat..

Ive got some of the cat, ill have to post them...Im still laughing.

I know what you mean about a rude little tap...(if needed)...
I say ow ow ow too sometimes...and he lightens up...

other times..I grab his whole head and pin him to the floor...
he loves it...

his favorite thing is to ambush me; out of nowhere...he'll lunge and
grab onto my thigh
and hang on...eeeeewww...I don't tell him how bad that hurts..but it do
hurt.

Sorry your cat was in the mood like that one morning...that's pretty
rough.

Yeah, he sleeps with me at night, once in a while...he prefers the cold
hard floor...
maybe it was the guacamole...lol...

You're a musician. :) Where are you?

Well, you don't look like a repeat cat slapper to me. <G>

> I know what you mean about a rude little tap...(if needed)...

In the end--they want to please you. They appreciate the food
and safety--and just come to love their humans, you know?
The longer you have them the more in tune with you they get.

> other times..I grab his whole head and pin him to the floor...

Sounds like boy cat play! I have two girls, and they like
laser pointers and catnip toys more than wrestling. You know.
Girly stuff.

How old is this boy and  how did you come to get him?

It was a big surprise--but we worked it out. I had her until she was
20.

My tabby cat is the culprit that way. She can clear the room. You're not
in Louisiana or Texas are you? I'm just curious.

I was at a customers house...and I opened my truck door and he got
in...I asked him if he wanted to go home with me...he just sat
there...so we left...together...(he cried the whole 2 miles)...but once
he got here...it's like he'd been here all his life.

He only eats food lion crunchy food

>You're not in Louisiana or Texas are you? I'm just curious.

Sounds like the two of you are a good fit.

You need to watch plain tuna for cats, believe it or not.
It doesn't have taurine, which they need. You might want
to grab him some canned cat food. It's really good for them
and cheaper than tuna to boot.

It's gorgeous there.

> Where are you / I take it your in one of the southern states.

I live in Raleigh, North Carolina now, but have lived in a few
different places. I have relatives in Virginia--in Richmond and
the Shenandoah Valley. Virginia is a gorgeous state. There
is not much difference between the mountains there and the
mountains here. My favorite place is in the New River Valley,
near Montgomery Co., VA. It's a great place to rock climb and
enjoy the outdoors.

(that was me) but we can blame it on the cat. (Ruprecht! get out from
under there!)

I have to ask, where did this name come from?
