Happy New Year!

You forgot the:
6 Tarantulas
5 Turtles
12 Toads
6 Catfish
2 Shrimpies
and 200+ guppies lol

EDIT:
How could I forget the stow-a-way Post Tree Frog! Silly thing was in a box of greens at a warehouse. It was born free, but thought the trip to Ontario was a good idea (nope) lol

Oh, goodness! Thank heavens you found it! Any picture? An Ontario winter is not frog-freindly, the natives gave all turned up the antifreeze and gone into hibernation long since!

Milo was bad a few days ago & all freedom was revoked. He is back to square one, until he can show his interest in attacking poor Cam is 0.

He was acting normal around Cam & Cam was just laying there. I turned around to help put Trevor's temp hand cast on his broken hand when Milo bolted at Cam & started attacking her (he pinned her down).

There was no fur pulled, and no wounds. Cam was just pissed off that she was used at a squeeky toy (why Milo is banned from playing with such toys).

We think it could be her bell that is triggering him. So we attached the bell to Charlie for the weekend, and now its on Milo.

So far he wont even look at Cam. He turns his back to her & lays down.

Jasper here to say: Milo, let the kitty be your friend, they're much better butt-warmers than they are squeaky toys!

Milo bit the cat again over the weekend

I got his human aggression under control, but getting him to lay off the cat is one heck of a challenge! So far we just locking the cat up in the basement so he can have free time in the house. Then we tie him back up (in the living room), so the cat can be free to roam the house.

Any advice on this cat issue. Hes gotten less aggressive with her, so now I can't even tell when hes going to strike

Milo, I hope you had a good day today. Thinking of you and your caring person Digi!

As long as Milo is tied, he gets along with Cam just fine. She'll snuggle up to him on the big dog bed (he is unmuzzled when indoors now), she'll drink out of his water dish, and she can run about like a spaz & hes fine.

Its the second he is free he hunts her down to bite her (she doesn't even have to be moving). He has never broken her skin, and never left a mark on her, but biting is unacceptable. She has clawed the hell out of his chest, ears, and neck for the few times he has pinned her down. He doesn't seem to care at all about it.
