I agree I have had 11 cats in my life, none as mad as hell like that, leather gloves up to my eyeballs to take him to the doctor and I bet he is better behaved with the Dr.
When my 4 year old gets really spooked, she takes it out on me. I mean hissing, chasing me, biting my legs. Vet said its just a thing some cats do when they're scared. Normally she's a cuddle bug
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bnIUW8XlSr4.html I dropped a mirror and it shattered. She shit herself (you can see it on the floor lol) and attacked me. I couldn't even get all the glass cleaned up until the next day. The video is after a few hours when I checked on her. Had to lock her in my bedroom overnight and sleep on the couch with the other cat.
@@williamfluck148 you haven't seen mad. This is nothing. My former cat had 2 personalities: one inside the house and another when he strayed past his comfort zone and sort of got confused, lost, threatned by the neighbor cats smells and strange hurtful plants. He was an indoor persian that never explored outside so when he escaped briefly i'd track him down and he would usually be im this state where he was so out of control that he didnt even recognize anybody, it was kind of insane. His eyes were wide open he would be in a licking outward state and in a stance ready to destroy you if you backed down or touched him. My mother once got bitten and took 10 stitches. I had to use a broom that he would lash on to in a berserk state which he forcefull grabbed on to and i would transport him to the house like that into a closed room so he could cool out for at least half an hour. It was very stressful. We couldn't let him leave because we wanted to protect him and also because he would get into that state. But want to know the best part? He was the sweetest most delicate cat I have ever seen. i just loved him very deerly and miss him a lot. He went to his polar personality. It was really extreme good and bad. Cats are awesome. He was a very missed company.
That first reaction to "asshole" freakin' slew me... Niles just got right up in the camera and gave it the biggest, best kitty FU yowl. What an expressive critter!
@@lmao9526They might understand a few words, but I imagine it's more in their reading the tone of voice and body language. I can get our rambunctious Tortie to stop misbehaving just by saying her name in a particular, sharp tone of voice. Stops right in her tracks, stares at me with eyes wide for a moment, then slinks off to probably resume misbehaving, just out of my sight.
@@RomanSimkins Well, of course in a sense that would be true. But it would not only just depend on the tone of her voice, but her body posture as well. If a situation or overall atmosphere seems tense or threatening to a cat (or any animal for that matter), then yes, it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest for the cat to react in the way it did. However, she never raised her voice, or had a certain tone that would threaten or anger the cat. It’s more so the temperament of the animal itself, and how it’s feeling as of currently. Moods can be caused by anything, not just by provocation.
i mean theres should be no line when u give too much space to a cat it starts doing whatever it wants u need to assert dominance correctly so they dont get angry at u but they still express doscomfort or fear .u just need to make it so what u say goes no matter what the cat wants
@@klajdisinanaj3977 That's the wrong attitude, you have to think of cats as basically little people with their own dignity, autonomy and will, but who are simply unable to speak or understand what you say. Would you "assert dominance" on a deaf and mute human being in order to exact their compliance? Sure you could break their will so they subject themselves to your every whim, but you will never have their trust, nor will you have a truly loving bond/relationship, they will always tolerate you with suspicion and animosity the way a political dissident regards the rule of an occasionally benevolent yet fascistic overlord. If you are patient, loving and kind you can gradually earn a cats trust and teach it to tolerate the strange things you force upon it that it can't quite understand, even if they're painful, to the point that they eventually figure out that you're not doing these things TO them but ultimately FOR them.
My Aby loves going to the vet cos the office is filled with women, and he LOVES women. Ladies' man supreme. He likes to stand outside the gate of the public pool and greet them as they pass by. He fears nothing. Car trips are another favorite.
My am. shorthair was a feral for the first couple years of her life. She doesn't mind getting in the carrier and being toted around at all, but as soon as she hears the car engine or we get rolling she's freaking out clawing at the gate to the carrier and howling. Luckily her checkup vet is only a 3 minute drive, but the few times I've had to take her to the animal hospital which is 30m away it's been a real ordeal. She's panic breathing by the time we get there and I have to let her out in the car to calm down a bit before we go in. As long as the engine is off and the car isn't moving she's totally fine with being in there, even curious to explore the new environment. I think it's deep seated fear of cars/engine noises from when she was an outdoor cat.
@@jgalt99 have you tried limited exposure to car engine noises? like being inside the house and starting the car while you pet her? until she's comfortable at a distance and then slowly making that distance shorter?
I thought my siamese would never forgive me after the first time I took her to the vet. She didn't even get shots or get fixed. But the look on her face said one thing, "How COULD you?" She was so mad.
Amazing how many people misunderstand the cat and owner. Yes the cat is a bit peeved, he clearly doesn't fancy going to the vet, but the owner is having a laugh with him and recording his temper tantrum. There appears to be no hard feelings in the one other video she's posted with Niles. Beautiful cat btw, great personality.
Of course there's no hard feelings after a while. But my cat used to ignore me for 2 days after transgressions like vet trips. He's definitely mad, and he's vocal about it. He obviously loves her or he could have jumped onto her face and clawed her.
OMG, my Sphynx at the vet! Hisses like a snake, 7lbs of pure demon, he acts just like this, talks back to me when I tell him to stop. Once it sounded like he said "Shit"
I have a 13 year old male who has attacked many times, he's almost 30lbs the vets were scared of him, he ran away for 3 weeks once and was hanging out with bobcats when he came home, he's a very big cat, can food diet his whole life, he won't eat anything else except temptations and senior cats gravy, I also have a 4 year old female ginger tabby that's a cuttle bug that is almost 25lbs of pure muscle, she is also very big, I have no idea how I ended up having 2 giant cats but I don't need a guard dog with those 2 around lol..
My sweet Abyssinian boy never hissed at me once during his 16.5 year life. It still breaks my heart to think about the look that he would give me as I struggled to take him to the vet. He’d just stop and look at me like, “but you’re my friend.” I still cry thinking about him.
You can tell he is very smart, and very pissed off, and you can tell he senses that she doesn’t get why he is upset, it’s almost like he is responding as if “how many times do I have to say it?” He wants to be able to calm down but he realizes she is kindve messing with him too so he wants to be left alone for a bit
@@ericmcgowan1993 shut up.... you sound like someone who would find humor in chasing cats around the house with oven mitts... or drive them crazy with laser pointers with no reward for the “hunt”... point is, don’t be a douche....
Might be different, but with dogs i believe your not supposed to give them treat when they display behavior you don’t want. But give treats with behavior you do want.
@@popenieafantome9527 I agree, you don't want to reward bad behavior. When they do the desired behavior or they comply with your commands that's when you dole out treats.
My Abi is not very fond of vet visit, either. The moment he sees me with a pet carrier, he starts complaining. The poor sweet boi doesn't fight, though. He just protests all the way to the clinic, singing the song of his people.
My aby is the same . Even at the vet , they are scared. So we bought a buggy/ for poodles doggo. We kept it a week inside. She went to sleep in it almost everyday. She knows when new toys arrive at home and it is hers w100% … so now we take her out in the morning and evening, so she can explore the outside more and feel more at ease. We still do get the meow ramblings and hissing… but when arrive at home , it’s love on the first sight… she really appreciates us , taking care of her feelings… my wife being a bit of a Karen , she loses to our cat… lmao… 😅
Our indoor aby used to get like this when neighborhood cats visited our back deck. He'd come up to you and insist to be followed to the sliding glass door. He wanted you to see the intruder then proceed to ballistic! After the intruder would leave he'd hammer on the scratching post for a few minutes then all would be well again. Best companion ever, never far away and always up to something to make you laugh. Wicked intelligent!
Haha your cat wanted you to see the problem, sympathize with them about it and then share in the joy of chasing the intruders away. Cats are so funny. I never understood why some people think they're aloof or that they don't remember you if you're gone for 3 days, or that they don't care about people and other animals. I read an article a few months ago where they were doing studies on cats to see if they recognized their owners, or if they knew their names, and one was about whether or not a cat would look when you pointed at something.
Yea somethin definitely goin on here. Cats usually don’t carry on like that unless they’ve been subjected to some kinda trauma/stress/abuse at some point (in my experience).
@@BrandonElliotSmith i had to take mine to get spayed, my poor darling was so upset after... I didn't manage to get her in the carrier two days later for the check up and it broke my heart to have to trick her to do it the next day. To this day she vanishes as soon as she spots the carrier, even if I'm just moving it to clean, and becomes a bit mean. I hope she'll somehow realize what I did means she no longer has to carry and care for kittens-shw did her fair share of that already
Couple tricks I've used to get my kitties used to going to the vet/in the car/going into their carrier #1 Keep the cat carrier in your living room/bedroom/whatever room you spend a lot of time in. Keep it open at all times. Helps your cat think of it as part of its "normal" environment #2 Put a small blanket/towel that your cat(or you) sleeps on a lot in that carrier with the door open. The carrier has a familiar scent and calms the cat #3 Occasionally put food/treats in the cat carrier. Put the carrier in different places in the house when you do this. #4 After you got the cat used to the carrier, put it in the front seat of the car with you in a way so the cat can see you.
And if at all possible, occasionally take your cat to another place that he or she enjoys. Much easier with dogs as a trip in the car could mean going to the park or beach. With cats you might be more limited to a friend's house that has a pet that yours enjoys being around. But at the very least try to get your pet to not associate the carrier with going to a place they don't enjoy.
My deaf cat was very fearful of the vet and could let out the loudest meows you ever heard - - even louder than the cat here. @Aaron Smith's suggestions are fantastic. I did most of what he recommended except for putting treats in the carrier. Instead, I put my cat's favorite catnip toy in there. The other thing I did was after every vet visit was to do the drive-through at a fast food chicken finger place on the way home. My cat loved chicken fingers. I would order a lunch for myself and the workers would give me a free chicken finger for my cat after seeing my kitty in her carrier strapped into the front passenger seat. I would strip off the coating and let the cat have the chicken finger. Eventually, my cat couldn't wait to go to the vet.
He was frightened about something. If he was going to the vets, some cats will get really frightened, they don't even like the smell of the place.. kinda like humans too?
GOOD cat! He turns up the volume every time she calls him an asshole. He doesn't like her calling his name in this context either. She's teasing him. Good kitty. Smart kitty!
our cats are very different, one sees the vet, and especially their assistant as their personal flatterer and is so much more well behaved than he ever is at home. our fussy little princess makes her displeasure known to the entire city. and our third is so absolutely chill the doc could probably rummage around in his chest cavity without bothering him.
That's one voicestrus cat, when he hangs out over the edge of the cabinet he's really belting it out there. I could only imagine it would have to be much louder in person. he's definitely making the point very clear no doubt.
hahahahahhahahabwahahahahaha, this is exactly what I love about the breed. My first cat was an aby - they have personality to spare, and aren't whiny little complainers like Siamese. They say what they mean and mean what they say - and in the end, they're incredibly affectionate and loyal
I had an Abby like this. I had to drop her at the vet’s once to get stitches out from a surgery and when I picked her up two hours later her chart had “ANGRY CAT!!!!!!!” in big red capitals with a bunch of exclamation points and red underlines lol.
I’ve had 2 Abbys and while Niles looks mad he is actually afraid. The Abbys are so regal and powerful looking that we think they are angry. But cats don’t work like we do. He is very afraid and ready to fight to defend himself-thus the hissing and growling. Hot to give him some space to get it together. Then try again with lots of reassurance. Beautiful boy?
Abyssinians remember too. I was at my aunt’s house for thanksgiving one year and she had an Abyssinian that seemed really sweet. It would even play fetch. Then it jumped on the table where the food was an dad made it get down. That cat has hated him from that day forward.
My Somali cat was told to stay out of the room by my brother. The cat has a grudge on him every since. He is nice to any other visitors. But every time my brother visits, the cat lets him know he is hated.
My two cats both listened to his tantrum and shouting with a level of awe. When my tom cat Jinx went to the vets to get fixed his sister Chloe threw a massive tantrum when I brought him back home. I had to put them in separate rooms so Jinx could recover from the procedure. Chloe also behaved the way Niles is in this video when I went on holiday to Tunisia and my brother took her to his house to look after her for me whilst I was away. She was storming from room to room in my place when she got home behaving like this.
Man, I can't help but to find cats extra cute when their all angry and stand-offish. I guess it's just the fact that these small, little feline creatures are not as big and tough and dangerous as they would like to think they are. It almost makes my head explode to think of how cute that makes them.
Agree. Abyssinians require a lot of trust building and patience, especially when confronted by strangers, ie the vet. They can be easily stressed. They bond tightly with one person, most affectionate cats ever. I'm honored to be trusted so completely by my cats, but I pity this poor boy ....
I had a British shorthair the most placid loving chilled flop cat ever loved everyone loved the car loved water even coming into the shower as soon as he seen the vets he turned into a devil cat I never had problems giving him meds clipping his nails or anything but I don’t know he just went mental and then he would do exactly this for about an hour after no matter what I did to try to calm him or comfort him he would even refuse his favourite treats have he would usually do a back flip and high 5 for. The vet said it’s just his way of basically communicating his feelings just as we would if we were cranky. Some animals are very hyper sensitive to smells like death and certain other smells that animals release when in pain and fear which can cause these reactions. All animals pick up on these and you will often see them nervous fearful even attempting to hide and reactions like “oscar’s” were on the severe side. So we got used to it spoke back to him saying yes we know it’s terrible and apologising while he went from room to room making sure everyone knew he was wronged then he would go up into his cat tree sulk nap then he was over it. God I miss him. 💕
Why are people acting like it’s not normal for a cat to be pissed for going to the vet XD mine tries to murder me and scratches me all over whenever I try to put him in a carrier
When I’m in my room I play my playlist of music. My 2 Abby’s mix & 1 domestic have calmed down somewhat when I take them for a ride to the vet. I play the music they hear everyday. So far they haven’t freaked out like this going to the vet. I do bring their favorite snacks if needed. Toys too. I sit in the backseat w/ the crate and continue to comfort them. My male Abby yells like this when he’s wants something & I won’t give it to him. I don’t tease him with it. He just wants what he wants!! I tell him to “stop it” he tries to over power my voice! I just stare at him like “I’ve never had vocal cats like this in my life!” My 2nd Abby kitten female is so adorable! She’s beyond hyper! Makes us laugh everyday. The stuff she gets into and plays w/. She’s very creative!! They both get the Abby breed from their mother. Idk who their father is but the Abby blood is really strong in both of them. We didn’t know we had a special cats until we took them for their yearly vaccines & the vet gave them a once over. Ever since I’ve done my research!! We’ve (me & my 3 cats) even watch tv shows together about cats and about their breed (Abby’s). It’s so cute to watch them pay attention to the tv. ♥️ Yes they’re smart, demanding, cuddly & affectionate creatures. Me & my cats talk everyday, all day! 😆😆
Looks like a full conversation between a mom and her kid 😀 Owner : Why are you such a a.... ? Cat : I DON'T WANNA GO, I WON'T GO, NO WAY .... SSHHHHH ! ! ! 😀😀😀
It's kinda fun, that my abyssinian son isn't that grumpy, when it comes to going to the vet clinic. He's always so nice, but kinda shy and wants to stay in my arms
Poor kitty, betrayal indeed! My Aby cats were upset by this video/audio, could sense Niles'stress They have always been sweet tempered but our vet said the breed in general has a short fuse in an office situation. Abys put their love and trust into one person and obviously feels his trust has been violated. Abys are very sensitive, not your ordinary casual type of cat.
How people talk to dogs: What’s-a matter , pupperino? Don’t you know I’ll always keep you safe? You’re my bestest boy/girl. So good! I love you. 💕 How people talk to cats: Niles, why are you being such an asshole? 😒
