Lately my cat has not been content unless he’s getting attention every second of the day, outside, or eating. It’s getting really aggrevating. I can’t let him outside for a long time because I don’t have a fence and he wanders too close to the road and I don’t like it. I can’t give him attention 24/7 because I’m usually not home. And he’ll get fat if he keeps eating so much. I bought him toys but he just looks at them and nothing phases him. Would getting another cat help? I think I’m taking in my friend’s cat. You think it would make a difference? When I’m home, my cat will NOT stop meowing unless he’s laying on me, or getting pet or anything. What is this? Cat seperation anxiety? This just started about a month ago, too. ---

This one women at my work was telling me her dog was on meds because he had anxiety. So im sure you can get meds for your cat. But before you do that I think taking in your friends cat would help the little guy… good luck ---

Ingredients: 1 Cat 1 Roll of duct-tape Some catnip Instructions: Tape the cat in place in corner facing away from you in the same room, place catnip just out of reach. Allow to simmer for 1 hour. Remove tape, and see how cat acts, if clawing continues. Retape in separate room and repeat. Also please don’t do this, not that you would. Or anyone so I hope. In all honestly try bringing another cat in for a “playdate”. ---

My cat is insane too btw, shes 6 months and claws the crap out of me, and then while i sleep she has to cuddle either on my head or in my arms, if not she will bug the crap out of me… Play date and let em fight it out for a bit is doable. Oh and my cat poops alot too.
