1236217 2011-10-07 21:34:00 I have a similar problem with my tom cat, his name is horse. I am the only one he comes to, he will come and sit on my lap and he comes running when I arrive home to demand his tucker. I notice that he is placid with any of the neighbours cats.

I have been wanting to get him to the vets to have him checked out. Last time I took him to the vets I left Horse alone in the the room with the Vet. I think that the vet must have had a few problems handling him. I heard her say to someone else, "I do not like that cat".

Last time I put him in a cage he ripped my shirt to shreds.

When I moved house I borrowed a cage trap designed to catch possums live. I eventually caught him and took him to his new home. When I let him out of the cage he went sniffing around the house and came and sat on my lap. He had decided that his new home was a cool place to live and he settled in straight away.

The black and white cat is my tom cat named Horse. The white cat is his mother.

1236218 2011-10-08 23:54:00 I see there is a handy airport in Hamilton, Montana. Why not save yourself (and the cat) of hours of tortuous journey by flying the moggy from point A to point B? May cost more, but the cat will only need to be sedated for an hour or two and can be sent a few days after you have arrived. Jen (38)

And if you're lucky, the baggage handlers may lose him (it could probably be pre-arranged with a suitable cash gift).... :D

Imagine if that monster gets loose! I'll need canned daylight for the next 1,000 years where they'll send me.

Coincidently we have a comic strip here (done by Murray Ball), called Footrot Flats, the cat character was called Horse, is that where you got the name?

1236223 2011-10-09 20:29:00 Yup Joe, the cat pill is called a .38 or a .45 - you pick. Zonk it out permanently

In my experience Joe, and with a cat that vicious, it can be hard to get a single .38 or .45 pill to 'hit the bullseye' so to speak.

I recommend that you use a diversity or 'broad spectrum' tranquilliser applicator.

Two cartridges of 12 Gauge pacifier with a cut-down applicator should do it without any problems, and the characteristic randomisation factor of this delivery modus means you don't have to get too close.

Believe me, if you use this method, the change in the cat's attitude will be so dramatic you simply won't recognise it.

Cheers

1236224 2011-10-09 20:48:00 Talk to a vet, I don't know how they do it but they can alter a cats whole personality chemically these days .
When my Mother passed away my elder sister inherited her cat, it was incredibly skittish and always had been, would run of terrified of any visitor, would let no one touch it, etc, etc
After taking some magic pills it became a very placid happy animal and everyones best friend and stayed that way after the pills ran out .

Icredibly aggressive cats are usually a result of spending time in the wild or being mishandled . An Uncle of mine used to demonstrate his "wind up cat, you wind it up and it goes" He'd hold it down and spin it's tail then let it go and yes, off it ran . As a result anyone sitting on the chair the cat generally hid under was likely to lose some skin . Not the kindest owner my Uncle .

And then there was my ginger tomcat, rescued as a kitten he ran off and lived wild for about 6 months before we found him again . He cleared the neighbourhood of stray cats and dogs and stopped any other animals entering the property, oddly enough he didn't seem to mind people too much as long you didn't pester him . At one point he discovered the neighbours cat door and decided to stake it out and chase of her cats when they tried to go inside . I'm not really a cat person but somehow it's hard not to get fond of the stroppy ones :)
