I Was Not Prepared For How Aggressive This Kitten Was...

My girl came to me from a rescue organization at 1 after just having kittens, and the first month was pretty much just her hiding and/or me bleeding. 4 uears later she is still not super cuddly, but she can walk on a leash, sit/lay down on command, and she is much braver and sweeter than she was. There are still notes about where not to touch her at the vet, but she even rubbed their legs the last time we were there. There is hope for this kitty if her owners are patient. All kitties just need to be loved.

100 % Backyard breeding for sure.

so I'm watching all your old videos.. did you ever see Masha again? did she get socialized? She's way to cute to be so hissy.

Siberian’s get huge. Hope the owner figures out some way to calm this lil dude.

We had a stubborn one too and it took her all the way up until she was around EIGHT years old to start becoming nicer, so.... good luck. 😅

when I was going to get cats, I knew I wanted a short hair breed, and they had to be able to clean themselves. then my friend adopted a cat, and it turned out that she was pregnant, and she was a short-haired cat. American Curl.

I have two decently behaved cats now. probably helped that I knew them since they were born.

they are also just about the most beautiful cats in the world. y'all can fight me. lol

It's pretty clear that this poor cat is being abused by this woman for a View, it's strange why YouTube is letting this go, this is animal abuse

I’m a rescuer in Southern Iteland most of the cats we Rescue are feral. Most of the kittens are also feral however I have homed a kitten who was found in a car engine at five weeks old. He had no idea how to play with other cats. he had no idea of boundaries. He never knew when to stop. He was extremely loving owing to the lady that first rescued from the car as she was very loving to him, he came to me for socialising as that is something I do but he could turn very very fast three years later and he is the most wonderful cat. His name is Ozzy Osbourne and I would say give them a chance because these are the cats that you really need to save and you have to work with them and there’s gonna be some spice.

spicy tiny molecule 🥺❤️

Shes basically a semi-feral in terms of temperament, early socialization is important

above all else dont treat them like a human or anthropromorphize your cat, doing those things will likely more or less do more damage then good to the cats health, your cats needs come first not your own, dont project yourself onto an animal even if its a house pet, show it love care and restraint because you are so much more bigger and stronger than it

Perfect kitten with totally normal kitten behavior. You started with bias and the wrong foot. They sense the tension in you and do not trust what you about the do to them. Judged her all the way. Irritating to watch.

You didn’t stop shaming the little cat i hope you’re not doing the same with your kids

Hi! How can you tell a breeder is an ethical and responsible one?

YOU ARE NOT NICE TO THESE ANIMALS

her face of shock while getting a nail trim lololol

I have 2 Highlanders who were not socialized so there like that

Poor Masha

I dont appreciate how she talks down to cats..

she's a fire sign

you are brave. if that happened to me i would quit

Маша🥰

At least she was rejomed as a kitten where most of these behaviours are reversible. So hopefully she's not a Mayonnaise 2.0 today 😂

Good thing the owners were committed because if they bought that kitten, they are part of the problem not the solution!

Would love an update someday!!

"Can we be friends?"
"nooooooo!"

“Your greed sickens me” - spicy kitten

In my experience, all kittens are like that only. They get calmer as they grow old.

Kittens hiss even before they open their eyes. Must be a natural protective mechanism.

Try using human toothbrush, cats tend to feel it like their mother’s tongue licking them.

Imagine being this scared of a kitten..how are you so popular?!? lol

My parent's cat was even worse when she was a kitten. Even smaller than this one she would hiss and try to bite/scratch.
She is still alive and even as an elder cat, you can't touch her or even do any sudden movements near her or she will hiss abd try to scratch you.
I think that cat has a short fuse. Definitively not the cat to introduce to a non cat person.

I found my cat at 5 weeks on the side of the road and I'm pretty sure she was feral and was pretty much like this. After almost 7 years, she is somewhere between an absolute loving cat, but every now and then, she still gets super feisty.
Especially if I tell her "no"

This is what learning to growl like a mamma cat can help retrain kittens and even adult cats from bad behaviour. Mums will also swat them in the head, but that's a little too mean.
