Seriously... I think those who “self-harm” themselves whether they be people or animals are under demonic oppression or possession. The days/times are getting more and more evil, satan’s time is short and we are going to begin to see more and more manifestation of evil in both animals and people. Countries without the influence of the Old/New Testament have reported this for centuries. Missionary’s testimonies for centuries have told of such in human and animals.

LOL the only thing better would be if it were a Siamese.
OTOH Siamese cats are usually on the other side of suicide - you commit it by trying to pet one.

Huh. When my cat is unhappy, I rub her belly and give her kitty treats.
Works every time.

We get the word pharmacy from the Old Testament pharmakia Actually NT. It's Greek. "pharmakeia"
In the NT it's used in a negative sense and refers to sorcery and poisoning.

For suicidal fish, I find this treatment usually cures them.
...Light the two meths burners, sprinkle some sawdust on the base of the smoker, add your food and put the lid on. That's it. There's room for two 3-lb trout, which would take about 15 minutes to cook through. Steak and other meats taste great cooked this way too....

My vet once told me that if a cat continually pees outside the litter box, if all else fails, they put them on Prozac. Works like a champ.

There are far too many people who have parrots who have no business with them... Because they can be expensive, people often have just one. They don't realize just how social parrots are in the wild, and by nature. They need company... A lot of company. And if they don't get it, they will go nuts. Usually it's destructive, like over preening that eventually turns to plucking out their feathers.
If you get a parrot, be prepared to work with and handle the bird for at least 6 to 8 hours a day, otherwise you wind up with a psychotic bird. Having a second parrot will help, but you still need to put in quite a bit of time with both birds.
The problem is that parrots are both social AND highly intelligent. Some African Greys have been shown to have roughly the intelligence level of a two year old human child (or a democrat congressional candidate).

My current mutley (though he’s dead ringer for a Nova Scotia Duck Toller - a breed I did not know existed until I rescued this guy) is a total punk rocker, slam dances, mosh pits, the works.
I think he has lunch plans for my mandolin.

This is why I have never taught my cats to tie knots.
