Ugh, I am having issues with my own girl of that age too. Cinder had always been so nice, and naughty, but still nice. But now that I got 4 new babies, she is SUPER hyper and aggressive with them, the babies hide whenever she is near them, and they scream when she pins them. She often she isn't hurting them, but sometimes when they try to get away from her tormenting them, she will bite them and pull them back to her, or she bites them and kind of "digs" at them on their bellies.
She has also been biting me now, last night she put a HOLE in my foot with her teeth. She literally bit my foot right by my toe so hard her tooth went all teh way through my skin. It hurt SO much, and was completely unprovoked. She was just having her out time, came up on the bed and I was petting her, she was fine, then she went to the foot of the bed, dove under the covers and bit me as hard as she could.
She will full out attack my hands if I have been holding the babies, or if they are near and I am keeping them away from her because she is being too aggressive. The big problem is that I have a FN 142, and tried to divide it so that she would be away fromt eh babies, but she will squeeze through the bars, then back INTo the cage, just to bug them, and ripped through the mesh I had to keep her out.
I also tried putting the babies in my small hospital cage, but she would again, escape, and go and sit on the cage, and reach throught eh bars and try to get them that way, pulling them against teh bars. So she is basically being held in the hospital cage as a Detention Centre, with the babies and my Henry in teh FN. I let her out a LOT, and always supervise her, and as soon as she goes for teh babies, I do the pinch and push her down, but she will just try to whip around and bite me if she can. She is NOT calming down. I am trying SO hard to make this work, and my big neutered boy, Henry, LOVES teh babies, and is a huge pushover to them. He even gets upset when she goes after teh babies, and will go over and sort of try to get her to play with him, or step between her and the babies, but she will just turn on him and he will back off. Nothing is working.
Sorry to sort of take over this thread, I just thought this related sort of to what she was talking about. I am just getting so fed up with Cinder, attacking me, attacking the babies, attacking EVERYTHING. I just need some advice. I really CAN'T afford to spay her, or buy another big cage, as I was just denied by disability, and am barely making ends meet as it is.
ANY ideas? PLEASE!?!
