Bad cat who claws doors, obsessively eats, bites during brushings, EATS PLASTIC!!!!
by Jen
My cat is 2 years old and is horrible! She is obsessive about eating. She'll eat anything you leave out even if it makes her vomit. We declawed her back claws because she was ripping out chunks of wood from our doors to wake us up to feed her even though it wasn't time yet. We feed her twice a day, the same time everyday. She now uses her back claws to scratch the doors.
She eats ANYTHING plastic!!! We have to lock up everything plastic! It's very frustrating and it can't be healthy. She also knocks over the trashcan to eat the food in it until she vomits everywhere!
You can't brush her because she bites, growls and tries to scratch you! And because you can't brush her she has hairball issues! she is just out of control! any advice????????
Morgen here...
Add some Lipiderm to her diet to break up the hairballs. Be sure she doesn't have fleas, since a cat will groom excessively when it has fleas.
Be sure that she has crunchies at bedtime. Feed her a grain-free diet so that she gets the most nutrition from her food.
Have her checked for "pica" (eating plastic) and for diabetes. Food allergies will also cause the excessive hunger.
