"John Doe" wrote in message ... Zena rolling over onto her back is a submissive position. No. Rolling over on her back is a *defensive* position. |

"Ali J via CatKB.com" wrote in message ... Barry, I do have to agree with you. About the discipline. A child needs it no matter what. A cat or kitten, however needs discipline to learn its boundries. So Barry I 100% agree with you! You should never hit a cat. Ever. Only morons like Barry who lack the intelligence to train a cat with patience and common sense hit cats. If you can't train a cat without hitting, you shouldn't have a cat-- or kids. |

This is the same stupid bitch who would not take her kitten to the vet when he had a broken tail. Her "pure bred" kitten that she intended to breed. Then lied about it. It has to be a full moon. |

Its asshole like this that make adoptions harder. Some people complain because we ask too many questions- now you know why. If I had my way, I'd make a polygraph and I.Q. test mandatory before adoption. I mean this from the bottom of my heart: some people are just plain too stupid and insensitive to have a cat. |

"bigbadbarry" wrote in message
ups.com... If he lays his ears back and wants to take you on...give em some more...across that ass..don't bruise him, or maim him, but pop him one. Dammit, I get mad people won't spank children or cats. Barry, please don't even joke about this subject unless you *clearly* make note that you are only joking (and don't be surprised when some of us refuse to even joke about it). There is *WAY* too much violence in this world, aimed at both children and animals, already. There is *NEVER* a reason to hit someone except to take out your anger on someone who is weaker than you. If you are doing it to stop someone from bullying others then you are only reinforcing the bully behavior. Any sentient being - any creature with nerve endings - can be taught correct behavior by systematic and *consistent* rewards for good behavior or the withholding or rewards in response to bad behavior. The very first step in controlling another's behavior is controlling your own. Teach by example and don't example bad behavior or violence. Hugs, CatNipped |

Brak - Male 18lb - 5y old (the bully) Zena - Female - 10lb - 13y Brak is beating up on Zena. Wow! You figured that out all on your own did you? Most impressive for a moron such as yourself. Congratulations! I have a very similar situation to yours. Apparently the only similarity is that they are cats and one is a bully. Hence my statement, and the reason for my post, you freaking dolt. The fact that Zena is hissing suggests she is under a lot of stress. You are a genius!! I bow before your superior intellect and comprehension skills! You weren't a member of that Mensa group by chance, were you? Justin snip my post, and John's annoying header posting habit |

Also, put a bell or other noisemaking device (as loud as possible) on
the bully so that all of the other cats can tell where he is. |
