Re: Please adopt my Persian/Himalayan cat
Dear Ruivy33,
The first thing I would suggest (and this is a very common suggestion for any pet with a behavioural issue) is taking the cat to the vet for a complete medical check to rule out any health issues. She may be attacking you because she is in pain. Don't trust your own eyes to replace a veterinary checkup!
Second, she was very young when you allowed her to mate. Typically, vets recommend waiting until the queen is one year old before breeding. When you are at the vet clinic, I would also ask whether spaying her will alleviate the aggression you're experiencing. Spaying will certainly be better for her in terms of her reproductive health. Also, if you do give her up for adoption, having her spayed will ensure that she is adopted by a sincere cat-lover, rather than someone who will breed her repeatedly for profit. Please consider it!
Sincerely,
Maneki Neko
