my cat is being bullied?
I wouldnt call it abuse cuz my cat is never injured but it still saddens me. My moms boyfriend is 30 with the mentality of a 5 year old. Sometimes (on a daily basis rather) he will randomly mess with her by grabbing her and shaking her while staring at her (a threatening posture to a cat) then he gets mad if she hisses and scratches him. Sometimes she gets so upset she pisses and poops on herself or out of the box (she has never done that) he does try to make nice with her by offering her food and pettings but she hisses and swats at him (thinking he is going to attack her) and the process repeats itself.
I tell him "and you wonder why she does these things to you" and he says "i dont wonder i know i just like doing it" or i say "just ignore her when she is like that" (he hates it when my mom is all over him so i use that as an example) im tired of saying these things all day everyday especially to someone who is 30 and owns dogs. He believes you need to put the "fear" into animals

The kid is a budding phycopath. You can thank your mother and her idiot BF for allowing the child to severely abuse an aniaml and not do anything so he can move right onto humans when he's older
Surrender the poor cat to a rescue

What an f-wit.
The poor cat.
Ask him if it makes him feels tough scaring a timid 4kg animal??
What a toss bag.
And bad judgement on your mum for allowing a cruel bully into her house hold.
Anyone who was cruel to my animals, OR upset my child like he is doing - would be out on his ear.
Tell your mother how anxious it is making you feel.
And ask her why she is putting the feelings of her bully boyfriend, above yours??
What he is doing IS animal cruelty - whether he or your mother think it is or not.

You don't need to put fear into them, you need to put love into them. The only thing he is doing is abusing that poor animal and putting it in utter terror. An animal is not a toy, nor a punching bag, you need to tell him that. Bottom line, it is not right to put an animal in danger and to put them in agony. Please do your cat a favor and put this to an end. You are a good owner for being so concerned! Best wishes. c:

Dear Angel,
THIS IS ANIMAL ABUSE. Threaten to report him. If he continues this behavior, actually report him.
Hope this helps
