The statistics are incomplete on how many people are murdered each year by their cats.  It usually appears as if it is an accident, “he tripped on the stairs”, “she was hit on the head by a falling roof tile”, or “they were found dead, horribly mauled, they think it was a Grizzly…” 

If these incidents would truly be investigated, you would learn the man tripped over his beloved kitty on the way down the steps to get his meowing pet some more cat food, the woman had noticed her cat “playing” on the roof the day before the tragedy, and the family ravaged by a bear? 

Their group of well-cared for felines were fastidiously grooming themselves when the authorities showed up, but trace amounts of blood and tissue were still to be found in their claws if only someone had known to look. Don’t be a statistic, learn to spot the red flags.

It starts out innocently enough.  You get the feeling you’re being watched…

You feel maybe you’re being paranoid…

You laugh it off…

You may say to yourself, why am I so jumpy lately?

But then, you catch a glimpse of something sinister….

That look that says, “I’m better than you.”

Image Credit

“You repulse me.”

Image Credit

“If I could get away with it, I would bite your chewy face off.”

But this is your cuddly kitten, you have nothing to fear, right?  Wrong!  Don’t get lulled into a false sense of security.  If this animal wants you dead, only constant vigilance will save you.

First you have to figure out the motive for wanting you eliminated.  Here are the top three causes.

  1. Alcohol and substance abuse.  Alcohol, illegally obtained kitty prescriptions, and catnip are everywhere these days.  If your cat is a junkie, his wild, aggressive side will be unleashed.

    What to do? One day at time, my friend.  You can get your kitty all the help he needs with just a few $1000 sessions at a good residential cat rehab center.  At one of these facilities, your kitty will be able to get the relaxation and reflection they need to heal their shattered psyche.

  2. Past grudges.  Wake up, your cat isn’t likely to forgive you for anything.  If your list of wrongdoings, real or imagined, gets too long, your cat is going to be looking for some sweet revenge.  Did you move your kitty to get a better seat on the couch?  Did you put a hat on your kitty because it would make a “really adorable” picture?  Did you- Lord help you- try to bath your kitties? These behaviors are all an invitation to be murdered in your sleep.

    What to do? Start sucking up right now.  It is time to throw pride out the window.  Does your cat climb the curtains? So what!  Does he lay on the counters?  Big deal!  Does he stick his face in your coffee cup? You get him dewormed, so don’t worry about it.  Don’t rule out gifts, like maybe an expensive sound system? Maybe a little “treat” you can pick up at Petco?

  3. You’re lame and he doesn’t need you. He’s a cat. You’re unnecessary.  Just admit it to yourself, OK?  Just own it.

    Image Credit

    What to do?  Give up, throw in the towel.  It is time to relocate.  An island would be good.  While you’re at it, get a dog, too, a big one that isn’t easily intimidated, or willing to sell you out for the next pretty face.
