u/Used_Gear8871 7d ago

Right! Poor behavior from an orange that needs to be corrected before he is older. My friend allowed his orange to get away with stuff like this, now he attacks people unprovoked. His new wife just had a baby and she can’t use the bottom half of her own house out fear the cat with attack her or their kid. I still have a bite mark from his attacking me while I used the bathroom 🫩

How exactly do you correct behavior like this in a cat?

Run! Run! As fast as you can! You can't catch me, I'm the single brain celled Ginger one!

u/myskepticalbrowarch 7d ago

Someone made sure the Ginger was extra spicy before baking that one 😅

u/sansabeltedcow 7d ago

I think your cat is a theremin.

u/Kangaroowrangler_02 7d ago

Owner being derp. Grab that little ah by the scruff and stop the behavior. Can't stand bad pets and kids gd. Shit aint cute.

u/Lord_Phoenix95 7d ago

I've learned to grab my cat by the scruff when he's in trouble. He goes from "I'll tear you apart" to "Oh no, I've done somethingc

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

You really shouldn't scruff cats. It can cause extreme stress and lead to further behavioral issues

10

u/CottageCheeseJello 6d ago

Do you even cat?

-8

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

Yes, I do. Scruffing cats erodes trust. It triggers defensive reactions and makes them uncomfortable. Cats require a feeling of control to feel comfortable, and this takes that away. Scruffing a cat older than 6 months can harm them. Most people will lift the cat when scruffing them. Imagine being lifted by the skin of the back of your neck and your entire body's weight hanging off of that small patch of skin. It's incredible dangerous, unhealthy, and possibly harmful to them.

Anyone who actually cats would know this. Vets don't recommend it at all

5

u/Schmiph 4d ago

I cat, you wrong.

But don't lift cats by their scruff. That is correct

113

u/Prestigious_Value_64 7d ago

Fr. This is just bad behavior from both parties.

49

u/pm_me_ur_anything_k 7d ago

Amen. Another lazy owner just thinking it’s cute instead what they should.

u/Life_Illustrator_247 7d ago

The cat also flinched when raised his hand.

-9

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

You actually shouldn't scruff cats. It causes behavioral issues and can ruin or degrade your relationship with them

u/Kangaroowrangler_02 6d ago

Wrong womp womp

u/hawkwood4268 7d ago

I think it’s cute. Our cats have only done this twice and it was funny. 

41

u/DanaBJ 7d ago

Kittens tend to be particularly vicious when it comes to food, it's usually a behavior that corrects itself with time as long as you don't encourage it.

6

u/StickyWhiteSIime 7d ago

You could have just typed "I don't understand animal behavior". Would you say a dog resource guarding is cute too?

33

u/cnotevelly 7d ago

Idk how people put up with this

u/OGCelaris 7d ago

Take pita on the poor thing. It worked hard for those ill gotten gains.

Don’t judge the little kitty he’s probably a little bit inbread

Owning pets just aint for everyone. Have you considered trying house plants?

u/Kimb0_91 7d ago

Boy he really doesn't like you at all huh

u/Terrible-Charity 5d ago

Why is this whole sub always filled with ragebait and terrible owners...

41

u/YakiVegas 7d ago

This person clearly has other cats and should know what to do. Grab it by the scruff! Duh.

57

u/Significant-Clue-425 7d ago

They’re not trying to succeed. They are amused.

u/smoothiefruit 7d ago

is this right?

I've only ever had dogs and I would 1000% be scrunching that scruff

2

u/pm_me_ur_anything_k 7d ago

Works even better on cats

2

u/smoothiefruit 7d ago

this cat is being so rude!

2

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

No, it's bad to scruff a cat. Not recommended by vets or behavior experts. It causes distress, can ruin your relationship with them, and leads to further behavioral issues or acting out

2

u/smoothiefruit 6d ago

that's what i thought i'd heard!

1

u/smoothiefruit 6d ago

what DO you do? its being so rude lol

and surely eating people food/ the bag it's in could be dangerous

3

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

Well the kitten flinches when they raise their hand. That shows it's used to this behavior. Cats require a feeling of control and will get defensive and lash out when they lose this.

Cats older than 6 months shouldn't be scruffed. People think it's not harmful because it's loose skin, but imagine being lifted by your neck skin and have the entirety of your weight being held by that one tiny spot. That would be incredibly painful, no? We're also not cats so to them, being scruffed by another species would freak almost any animal out.

Learning body language is heavily recommended. You approach in a non threatening manner, use toys to distract it, give it a treat to make it make it interested in that instead. If you're worried about being scratched, wrap the cat with a towel, it will prevent them from scratching you and allow you a proper grip and control while holding them

I have an orange who loves to steal my girlfriend's jewelry, eat plastic, and get into things he shouldn't. I've never had to hit him, scruff him, raise my hand at him, or anything like OP has done. If you're calm and show non threatening body language, the cat won't be hissing at you like that. Physical punishment does not work on cats, it's all behavioral techniques or practices with them

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

Grabbing cats by the scruff can causes distress and only exacerbates behavioral issues. There's many other and better ways to train cats

9

u/YakiVegas 6d ago

Yes, that's exactly why all mother cats NEVER grab their kittens by the scruff to move them away from danger etc. /s

0

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

Too big to be scruffed by a mom cat. It causes aggression and defensive reactions from them. We're not cats, it's not going to have the same reaction from us picking it up by the scruff as another cat. It's abusive

7

u/YakiVegas 6d ago

lol ok PETA

2

u/joe__kerr1 6d ago

Downvoting me and calling me PETA doesn't make you right. Scruffing cats is heavily not recommended by any cat expert, vet, or behaviorist. Your lack of knowledge doesn't make scruffing okay

2

u/ScarletOnlooker 6d ago

How about you close the door so he can’t escape?

2

u/autolockon 7d ago

It’d probably just drop it if you clapped your hands really loudly

2

u/Dogsrus65 7d ago

LoL! What was stolen? 

1

u/Jazzlike_Platypus430 5d ago

Who closed the door?

1

u/carmardoll 7d ago

An orange with working braincells!

u/STFUisright 7d ago

I had to pause this video to chase my orange off of my counter. That’s my cinnamon bun!

-6

u/imperfcet 7d ago

I love the claws-out swat when the human tried to take it from her

-49

u/Buada 7d ago

Who would steal pitas from a kitten?!

Leave em alone.

61

u/Deposto 7d ago

Someone who doesn't want this little gremlin to eat plastic wrap and dough and end up with a blocked intestine.

-31

u/Alert_Long4454 7d ago

Dude, it’s sarcasm.

20

u/Deposto 7d ago

That doesn't sound like sarcasm. Like, at all.

16

u/karlhub 7d ago

I have a hard time believing someone is serious about stealing pita from a cat

9

u/Alert_Long4454 7d ago

Tell that to the six people who downvoted me lol

6

u/karlhub 7d ago

That's just the hive mind doing it's thing

5

u/Alert_Long4454 7d ago

True, I forget that sometimes. On Reddit people(like me) argue, when there is really no point to it. 

1

u/Buada 7d ago

Maybe it just a bunch of bots now.

-5

u/andiinAms 7d ago

You’re at -19 now lol

Idiots 😂

2

u/Alert_Long4454 7d ago

Like, yeah, dude, totally. It’s a freaking joke. Of course nobody would want their pet to choke on plastic. 

-7

u/andiinAms 7d ago

Lol who is downvoting you?? Some Redditors have a terrible sense of humor 😂

-1

u/Buada 7d ago

I think this place is just overrun with bots now. It’s the only real explanation.

Even you’re getting downvoted now.

Yet somehow my other replies aren’t even being viewed? Yet alone being downvoted. It’s literally bots. People aren’t THIS stupid.

u/tellmeagoodusernamek 7d ago

Do you know how many birds have gone extinct since the 80s and today and who is mainly responsible for that other than humans, yeah, they're fkn vicious

36

u/QuaccDaddy 7d ago

Sir this is an indoor cat

8

u/Significant-Clue-425 7d ago

Do you know how many birds though?

4

u/sbb214 7d ago

birds aren't real!

1

u/RussiaIsBestGreen 7d ago

At least one.

3

u/andiinAms 7d ago

You’re not wrong. Entire bird species have gone extinct due to cats’ predation.

That’s why mine will only ever go outside on a catio. Protects them in addition to wildlife.

Looks like this goofy lil guy is hopefully an indoor dude.
