If you try the water bottle with my siamese cat, he would just look at you strange and then keep doing what he is doing. It doesn't phase him much at all except to shake off the water. A can of air on the other hand, works wonders for him. Sounds like hissing and he doesn't like it when either the boss cat or I hiss at him. He is such a submissive 'little' boy g Knight's Kyra 'little' = 16 lb, almost knee high cat that is all sleek muscle and bones.

Here is a link to a slideshow of all 5 of our cats. Once it opens up you should be able to click on "Slideshow" to view it. I have also added in a few extra shots of the siamese to show his growth from 8 weeks to 1 year to now. Enjoy!! http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=b9hzpcen.53vl5hpj&x=0&y=-3899yo Knight's Kyra

Such lovely kitties, and the Siamese has grown into a handsome cat. I confess to cooing over the "baby" pics. Sadly, I don't feel it's fair to bring a frisky kitten into a home with a wheelchair (at least a home as small as ours). I fear for the poor kitty's tail and paws. With apologies for hijacking this thread.

Do I have to worry about her biting me harder in the future or do i need to be worried about behavior? Nope.

I am a new time Mom. thanks for the help! I'm glad you asked this question. I've studied feline behaviour for over 11 years. I have a Ph.D. in this area. This cat hates you. She will never change. It will get worse. Much worse. Within weeks she'll be peeing in your slippers and if you don't do something about it...shortly, she'll be shitting in your morning coffee. (Trust me on this).

Kittens teeth and claws are known to be the sharpest things on earth :) Definitely give them toys and scratch posts to break in, and remember that if you wind them up too much, they can just go bonkers and it's your own fault to get attacked. Make sure when you play that you keep them focused on the toy and give them some time to calm down. A squirt bottle is good for serious offenses, but for basic training, a firm tap on the nose between the eyes is the universal cat symbol for "cut it out" and mixed with a clear "no kitty" will be a good help. If you do find yourself caught, stop everything you are doing, push INTO the cat firmly, unhook yourself and then turn you back to them and don't make eye contact so that they know this is bad behavior.

I did a google search on cat's body language and found this article that I enjoyed reading. It might help with understanding your new kitten. http://www.messybeast.com/cat_talk2.htm Knight's Kyra
