Mar 31, 2009 Rating Agressive Cat by: Mary in NC Kate is correct. Cats who have agression usually have a fear of something. You probably do not have a full idea of what her life was like BEFORE you adopted her so her fears very possibly go way back in her life. Cats have LONG memories and once they have experianced anything negative, they take a long time and alot of love and patience to learn trust again. It is truely a labor of love and time consuming. Patience and soft spoken words and allowing her to roam the house freely and learn that she is a member of the family is what it is going to take to bring her around. Being locked away in a room alone most of the time is going to make her regress more as time goes by. It only adds to her anxiety and fear. Cats learn trust on their own terms. (Read my story on the Rescue Stories Page about my cat "LOLA" who had this same problem".) You will see that it isnt a quick fix with a cat who has fear and stress issues. But lots of TLC and patience might just pay off. It did for me and Lola. Good luck and best wishes to you and your kitty.
