My cat hates everyone with a few exceptions.?

Actually, a cat that is that aggressive is not normal and downright dangerous (cat bite or scratch abscess, cat scratch fever, infections can be nasty). Think what happen when this problem first arose... did you move? did you get a new pet? did a guest beat her up? Try moving the hut to another place, or even to a place she doesn't like ie. the bathroom or next to the noisy furnance. This will force her to not be in a tall place and in a lower (more submissive) place where she can't monitor everybody. Keep her nails as short as possible to decrease any health risks for your visitors.

I'd keep her away from any visitors for their protection as you have been doing when she is not under supervision, although this may only cause her to resent guests even more. Do not feed her free choice, and have a visitor fill up her food dish in front of her, and have him/her touch the food as well to have the smell in the food.

Some cats are just aggressive, and no matter how much behavior modification they will still be aggressive. Ask your vet about buspar or fluoxetine, they are anti-depressant drugs (like kitty prozac) that sometimes helps decreasing their anxiety without changing their basic personality.

re the sucking: loudly say NO and put her in the floor and ignore her when she does that, also give her a toy (they tend to prefer rubber) so she can suck in it and leave you alone. Rub it w catnip if she like it.

Good luck w your kitty!

What some have said here that every cat has his own personality and peculiarities is very true. It is also true that most cats will attach themselves only to one or two individuals, tolerate an additional 4 or 5 and will refuse to have anything to do with anymore. This is normal for a cat which hunts by itself and is normally perfectly happy to hang out with no one but its sweet old self. There is probably too much comings and goings in your household - visitors, freinds, etc. As a general rule, cats do get stressed by this for they prefer a peaceful, quiet, well-ordered world with predictable happenings and routine routine routine. If you overload a cat with too many introductions to new a dn not too new people, the cat will rebel. Some cats will simply up and leave the "over-crowded den." Some cats, like yours, will defend it and run-off the "surplus individuals" by attacking them (hee hee hee). You need to accept your kitty for what she is and see the owrld from her eyes from time to time.

My suggestion is this. Make a room in your home (could be your bedroom) as your cat's "safe-place" where she can nap, sleep and even eat in peace. When you are expecting visitors, put kitty in her safe-place. This way, she will not get stressed and it will break her habit of attacking people. I always put my 2 cats in my bedroom whenver we are entertaining people or when I know there will be a lot of goings ins and outs in my house.

Every cat has different personality traits. Some hang on to their kitten personality as far as the sucking is concerned. The attacking people, I am not sure, but some cats hide when people come into the house. So I guess this is just another cat thing. Just put you cat up when someone comes over. And what you consider perfect, is in your world not the cat world. Just love them the same, because they love you the same.

Well, it's because she's a cat and cats are weird like that;)

Seriously, cats personalities change tremendously from the time they're a kitten to the time they're an adult. Many cats attach themselve to one or two people and don't want anything to do with other people. My cat is like that too. The sucking is leftover from her sucking relfex as a kitten. some people say it occurs in cats taken away from their mothers too early, and in my experience that's true, but I don't know if there's any actual scientific evidence to back that up. Cats are pretty cool little critters, and if you don't mnd doing what you haveto do with your cat, there is no reason to give her up. She probably would not do well with anyone else anyway, as apparently she's bonded well with you.

My cat is the total opposite, she rubs up to every one she sees and moews till she is held or petted.

But i do have 3 cats and the other two are recluses, they hate being around other people but when I am home they come flying out and just rub and purr and are friendly.

What a strange world Charlie Brown,

Normal

Interesting. I don't know if there's anything you can do to modify the behavior, but you might move the hut somewhere out of the way so she would have less opportunities to attack people.

This cat is NORMAL.

It you'd like a pet with a better demeanor, try a DOG.

I'm not sure about that other cat. Maybe you just got lucky with that one.

ask your vet. and shes probably 'sucking' on you neck because she thinks you two are her parents.. that behavior is just a habit from when she was a newborn when she would drink milk from her mother. my kitten used to do that b4 we gave her to my cousins.

cat is normal just be careful it does not bite someone cat bites are very dangerous good luck with crazy kitty
