I agree with the other posters. Don't put this cat to sleep simply because
of a small problem which can be easily solved.

om...
We have to cats (tiki and bailey) and although they are indoor cats we
usually let them out in our fenced in backyard everyday. Two nights a
go both cats where out and we were sitting inside and we heard the
loudest scream we ever heard from a cat. We thought the cats were
being attacked by another cat or some animal and my wife kind of
panicked and run straight towards the noise (it was dark) and probably
scared the cats even more. She got bitten pretty bad in the hand and
scratched up all over. The smaller cat, Tiki, is fine but the bigger
one, bailey, a siamese (and something) female would not let us near
her. We had her in the bedroom for the night (I slept in there as
well) and she seemed to have calmed down, she slept next to me. The
next morning we let her out of the bedroom and she imediately attacked
the other cat while screaming like a banshee ( and this scream is like
nothing I ever heard before, much louder), the smaller cat is faster
and escaped on to the kitchen cabinetts. While our Siamese was chasing
the the smaller cat she sprayed pee and also defacated on the floor
and then hid in the bedroom.
At this point she's OK with me, very loving actually, but will get
bushy tail and start running towards my wife as soon as she sees her,
I had to shoo her away from my wife today with a broom. And she will
attack the other cat on sight. She's always been pretty social, always
hangs around where we are and observes the goings on. She may hiss
occasionally when she gets irritated (when I try to clip her nails)
but she has never been anywhere close to this,
she is like a different cat.
Anyway I feel that we cannot trust this cat anymore, my wife really
loves the smaller cat more, it's her baby who sleeps in her arm every
night.
So I will call the vet and spca tomorrow and get some advise but at
this point I don't know what to do except put her to sleep. It so
unfair because this behaviour was brought on by something external (we
do not even know what is was that attacked our cats in the yard) but
if we cannot trust her with the smaller cat (and ourselves) bailey may
have to go. I do not know if we could try to give her away when she
behaves like this.
Any advise?
