Violent Cat

Well the thought of keeping him has crossed my mind, but with two young children 3 and 4 and another one on the way and the fact he doesnt seem to like my kids already does worry me!!
Im thinking the only real option left is getting him in a cat box and taking him down to the pdsa and hoping they can help him0 -

As angry puss is starting to trust you a bit I'd be tempted to try to borrow a travel crate, put in a snuggly towel / jumper and pop it nearby with the door open - you could also put some tarp or plastic over to make it nice and sheltered.
Many cats can't resist an open box and will get in of their own accord (or you could try the old putting a bit of food in trick) it might take some time (you may have to leave it there a couple of days) but if you could tempt puss in then you could get it off to the vets and they should take it from there (sure they'll understand if you explain the cat is agressive towards your daughter and you can't take it in).0 -

Very tempted to give him/her a name but i dont want to get too attached and i know what im like
He may be beter with the kids when he is less frightened.

I would probably throw up if the past 5 and a half months is anything to go by :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:0 -
Well done for sticking with it. I hope you manage to get the cat into a box and to the vet soon.
I have just read that you are pregnant. At the risk of stating the obvious, do be careful to wash your hands thoroughly after handling her/him.I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.0 -
