ANSWER: Hi Cindi,

I'm trying to figure out what you are asking. Are you trying to stop your cat from scratching you? Or from getting scared of you? Please write back and let me know.

QUESTION: my cat goes crazy... i wanna fix that. i love my cat.. he is not just scratching. he is biting too...  he physically attacked me. what can i do? is there medicine i can put him on?

Answer
Hi Cindi,

Okay,let's see why he is doing the things he is doing. Does he seem afraid of the kids? From what you wrote in the first e-mail it sounds like he is. Are they approaching the cat when he doesn't want to be bothered with? If he doesn't feel safe around the kids he will go a little bonkers. It's up to you to make sure they don't disturb him. You might want to make a safe area for the cat and tell the children that when he is in this area they are not to go near him. Make sure it has a high area in it so that he can get away from the kids if thy bother him.

Get a product called Feliway, (the whole house atomizer). This acts as a kitty tranquilizer and will calm him down. See how he is after this. If he isn't better write back and I'll tell you what drug you can try on him to calm him down. Good luck.
