Yeah I did. She went almost all the way to the bone with one fang. I had to have stitches put in for it as well. I'm still having problems with the healing, but the docs don't think I need more stitches. It is right on top of my hand, so they said it will take awhile to heal.

Nothing changed. Not the litter, not the food, didn't move any furniture or the boxes or anything. She's always had a small nasty streak in her, to where she'd try to scratch, but she has never bitten. I can totally understand my husband's concern and a part of me agrees. We can't have a cat that could turn that quickly. She gave no warning before it happened, just all of a sudden ears flat and she's biting. Vet doesn't want to put her on anything and we've tried Feliway and Rescue Remedy with her in the past, when she was agressive against Shadow.

Honestly, I think she will have to go, if I look objectively and take emotions out. She needs more attention than we can provide. She would thrive with someone who is home during the day and/or where she is the only cat. We both work full time out of the home and now with these babies demanding so much from us, I can't give her all she needs. She's always gotten a lot of love and attention, but she doesn't share well with the other cats. She likes to have all the attention and when you have 5 cats it's hard to do anyways.

This just breaks my heart. I can't have children (husband had his kids with his first wife) so my cats are my children. But the tension between the cats (as in the other 4 against Mischief) is escalating and the fights are starting. Even Ebby, who is the mother figure cat in here, is starting to snarl & growl at Mischief and Shadow bares his fangs if she comes too close to me. I have to spend time with Mischief in a seperate room otherwise Shadow will attack her (he's my Alpha male cat).

I dunno. I'm just so confused and torn. Objectively I know what I need to do. Emotionally, I don't want to. But what is kinder to the cat? To keep her in a situation where she may not be safe or to rehome her somewhere that she can get all the love she deserves?
