How do you tame your mean Siamese cat?

It is hard to train any sort of cat, but it takes a lot of time (many weeks or even months) to help your cat become less aggressive.

There is usually a reason why a cat behaves in a certain way. The best way to try and curb unwanted behavior is to first learn what triggers the cat to do said actions. Try and find ways of stopping the cat react before it it acts, such as withdrawing a hand, ignoring the cat for a few minutes, or even something more subtle such as averting your eyes (staring is an aggressive act to a cat). Never scold or punish a cat for not behaving as you would like it to - this will just cause the cat to be scared of you, and may lash out in defense.

It may be reccomended to contact a professional animal behaviorist if you are unsure of why a cat is aggressive.

Is it bad to feed ferret food with cat food to a cat?

High quality cat food can be fed to ferrets, they are both obligate carnivores and only digest meat. However, ferret food should not be given to cats as cats have specific nutritional requirements which only complete cat food can provide.

Food should be minimal in grains and vegetable/fruit ingredients and high in meat based protein.

Cat food is regulated by AAFCO. There is no governing body regarding ferret food, which means manufacturers can put whatever they want into the food.

Cat food is designed for a cat's digestive track, ferret food (supposedly) for a ferrets digestive system, though there are no studies proving that high quality cat food shouldn't be fed to ferrets

What is the function of axillary artery cat?

It's the artery that exits the lary and then enters the artery in the arm of the cat where the femoral nerve goes into the lateral vein toward the inner spine leading straight to the hydrocephalus vein, which comes out of the external transverse scapular artery of the lary. The axillary pharynx then transforms into the heart through the hearteries (the superior arteries that enter within the right ventricle) which is what pumps the blood fast enough so the cat does not go into hypoxia. This is a common disease in house cats that are spread from strays who have not been tested for Axillosis.

What is the difference between a tiger and a cat?

How do you train your cat to stop using the litter tray?

How odd. Most people want to train their cats to use the litter tray, not to train them to stop using it. If you don't want your cat to use the litter tray, that's easy; remove the tray. If the tray is not there, the cat cannot use it. Move the litter tray outdoors to get your cat used to going outside and then, eventually, remove the litter tray completely.

How do you know if a cat likes you?

Purring (means content.) Even sleeping curled up is a sign or laying sprawled out across the back of the couch looking out the window. Cats are generally very laid back and content. They play, eat well (grazing) and drink water. If your cat is ill they will either cling to their owner or go off into another room to have peace and quiet. Older cats that become ill can have a scraggly coat of fur. If in doubt see your vet.

Do cats have runny noses?

This is actually a regular problem I have with my tabby. He squints as though his eyes are bothering him, his eyes tear, and both his top and bottom lids turn pink as though irritated. He was a youngster the first time it happened and being a concerned cat-mom I dutifully took him to the vet. The vet looked carefully around his eyes to make sure there was no foreign object, then diagnosed him as having eye allergies. The treatment is to use the same allergy eye-drops people use, as needed, which he hates, but it works great. I was relieved there wasn't something more serious wrong. I was afraid he might have something in his eye, which can in extreme circumstances cause permanent vision loss. There is another possibility, which is uncommon but more likely if your cat is a purebred Siamese or Persian. I had a purebred Siamese some time ago whose eyes started to bother her. It didn't appear to be anything serious so I didnt worry about it at first. I took her to the vet immediately when I noticed her eyes appeared slightly cloudy. It turned out what she had was corneal sequestrums (sp?) in both eyes. She ended up needing eye surgery, which was awful, and expensive, and without which she would have ended up going blind in both eyes. What had happened was that she damaged her corneas in some minor way, then her eyelids, which were turned slightly inward (a 'defect' almost exclusive to purebred Siamese and Persians) caused the damaged areas to grow. The corrective surgery involved cutting out the damaged areas of her corneas and surgically correcting her eyelids so that problem would never reoccur. If you don't get the feeling automatically that there is something seriously wrong with your cat, what I would do is pick up some allergy eyedrops (I buy mine from the health food store because it makes me feel better, but my vet tells me it's not necessary), treat him/her, and keep a close eye for 24 hour or so. Typically my cat is noticeably better within a few hours. If your cat does not get better in 24 hours or appears at any time to get worse, I recommend taking him/her to your vet. I can tell you from experience, if it is serious, things can get a lot worse if you wait.

What would rip a cats limbs and head off and take the rest in a pretty busy neighborhood in northridge CA?

It is rare for an animal to be dismembered in such a way in a busy neighborhood like Northridge, CA.

It is important to report such incidents to local authorities for investigation.

Why are cat so loveble?

To many people, cats are a lot cuter than dogs. Their almond-shaped eyes, small noses, medium ears, small paws, and variety of fur colors are the most noticed features.

When they sleep, they often sleep on their sides, with their paws at their muzzles or chest. This creates a toddler type appearance. To cat lovers, this appearance makes them feel happy, which, in return, makes them see the cat as cute.

To those who want a more, how do you say, descriptive reason, in you will, then I will scientifically explain. As you know, the sleeping cat has a toddler type appearance. This then activates a special hormone in a human's gland, creating a sense of well-being, or friendship. This feeling is stimulated through the brain as motherly or fatherly love, which makes the cat's appearance levels rise. This makes the cat seem cuter to the human.

Cats and dogs are cute due to the reasoning that they are good for humans. Cats kept away rats that carried illness in the past, and dogs kept away any dangerous animals and humans. So it should come as an instinct for most of us to love them.
