Felix the fluffy, fighting cat

[Barbiecat1]

Poor guy, it sounds like you may have been abused when you were young, and still can't completely trust humans. I feel so bad that ANYONE could do this to a lovely animal; it really breaks my heart. Maybe with more time you will learn that your family loves you and just wants you to know that they have your best interests at heart. Happy COTD today.

HAPPY COTD FLUFFY!!! You are one big beautiful cat! Congrats!

"Felix the cat, the wonderful, wonderful cat; whenever he gets in a fix, he reaches into his bag of tricks; you'll laugh so much your sides will ache, your heart will go pitter pat watching Felix the wonderful cat!" I'm dating myself by posting the lyrics to this song but they definitely apply. Felix the Cat is an old cartoon that I watched as a child on black and white TV. You may not get into "fixes" but it's clear that you keep your humans entertained, even if you are a bit rough at times. So enjoy your day as COTD, handsome Tuxie boy.

Felix the bad eh? What a beautiful boy you are - no wonder your family loves you so much. They accept and understand that cats rule the roost and will do as they wish. Have a lovely mischievous day Felix!

Felix, it does indeed sound like you may have memories of less than happy times before you were adopted into your wonderful family. You are so fortunate to have a family that loves you unconditionally, and we too hope you'll come to be more affectionate. Felix, you are a very handsome, albeit a bit spunky boy and we congratulate you on being todays Cat of the Day!

Poor Felix, it sounds as though you still have flashbacks too the tiome that you were a stary , and sometimes when you are over stimulated , you strike out even at Your Family who love you so.
We hope that you can grow out of this as you mature and become a more calm Cat.

You are such a Handsome Cat, and you certainly know how to relax. We know that your bad memories will fadeand you will be such a Tuxedo Teddy Bear!!

Oh, you big handsome fella! Please don't attack your humans--they love you and won't hurt you.

You sure do remind me of my RB boy Hagrid, especially where you're showing off that fluffy belly. Happy COTD, Felix!

I have a friend that has a cat that doesn't like much petting and attacks when petted like Felix. After a few years we finally realized that he doesn't like being petted softly, but he loves it if you pet him firmly, even hard. We think the soft, gentle petting must have been tickling him. He has a very short fine coat and sensitive skin.

This may not be the case with Felix and his long abundant coat, but it might be worth experimenting to see if he likes a firm touch and even firm massaging like my friend's cat. I also had another friend with a cat that attacked suddenly out of the blue while being petted, she had a hormone imbalance that was causing it. Although Felix is male, that also could be a possibility, neutering might help if he is a Tom.

Hi, Felix, handsome tuxie kitty! I'd be happy to give you snuggles at 4 in the morning! And that tummy, I'm willing to give it a rub any time. Happy Cat of the Day!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Felix what a gorgeous fluffy boy you are!!!

How naughty of you to show off your gorgeous fluffy tummy and not allow gentle pats to it. I have a couple of kitties in my heard too though who don't like being petted. I hope you come to enjoy it when you are older and more mellow.

Congratulations, sweetie, on being our special Cat of the Day!!!

Felix, What a handsome boy you are! I'm sorry you sometimes have violent outbursts and I agree with others that you are probably doing it due to the way you were treated before you were adopted by your present family. It is obvious that you are loved and greatly appreciated in your home now. I hope all of you have many years together. I enjoyed your photos and I'm glad you are COTD! Kay in NC

Such a lovely cat...such a temper! You look and behave a little like Whiskers here...except that he loves to cuddle (He will terrorize two of the other cats here on occasion, and tears through the apartment at breakneck speed).
Enjoy your COTD status, Felix...I guess catnip is out of the question for you - lol!

What a handsome, truly gorgeousTuxie boy you are Felix, and such a character, hehe! I was going to quote the Felix the Cat song but Medusa beat me to it! It seems to describe your spirited, spunky, wonderful, "bag of tricks" personality to perfection!

We are so very thankful to your parents for going the rescue route, and even more so for loving you unconditionally, just the way you are; and despite the occasional swat, there is so very much about you to love!!!

My rescue feral Tigg is much like you! Well, actually he craves and seeks out snuggles and cuddles and kisses, begging to sit in your lap, kneading biscuits and purring his heart out; then suddenly, out of nowhere, bam! But we know he loves us dearly, as do we him, just as your parents do! We wouldn't trade you kids for the world!

Thanks for ending my day with a big smile, Felix! I hope you're enjoying a very happy Cat of the Day, being spoiled rotten and loved to bits! Much love to you on well earned day of honor, precious Felix!
