“I have had several cats over the years. I never have had an aggression issue.”
_______________________________________________
I always have an average of 5-6 cats. I have never seen one show aggression towards humans, but times are a bit testy at the moment. My dog has five, 2 week old, puppies on the front porch. Needless to say, she is a bit testy about the cats and people that she does not know, such as a meter reader now, even though they normally get along fine together. Three of the cats cats are now holding out on safer ground, away from the house.
I got my Maine Coon, Abby, when her owner had to give up her and her brother due to health problems. Abby and I fought for 2 weeks, I sorta won, went to work with bite marks and starches on my forearms and hands. We finally declared a truce till my wife showed up in my life. Abby became a little jealous and would sneak up and bite her and run off. I got calls at work telling me I am going to throw your damned cat out the window, I would tell her you need to get higher, a second story fall won’t do it.
We all get along very well these days with the exception of vet visits when the old Abby emerges and teaches the vet a fecal is out of the question.
