Fairchild - This is actually normal behavior. The cat is taking out its frustration of not being able to secure his territory from the alien cat. Cats live in the moment and usually tend to go back to normal within a day or a couple of hours. My neighbor has a male and female. The male became upset with a stray cat passing their window and in turn beat up the female cat. By the end of the day the male was back to normal and the female was cautious but went back to her normal routine.
Beau is so excited to see every box that come in the door.

Grace got into trouble with mommy and daddy today. She climbed half way up the tree and when I chased down from that she decided that she was going to climb on one of the curtains. She got a good scolding from me. She thought that Daddy wasn’t going to scold her when she tried climbing the curtain again when he came home. He scolded her and she ran right up onto the cat tree and sat there for about a half hour.

Yep. Princess has never tried to climb my curtains. She always has climbed into the tree until this year. She is starting act more and more like a mature adult and it's Grace that is acting like the teenager.

I am the person reaching for the cat. Most definitely.
I am in my 60's and have had cats in my life for a total of nearly 60 years. My Peaches is failing at 18 years of age. My husband doesn't want any more cats and about 15 years ago I agreed to this. What was I thinking? I am beginning to wonder if I will have to go into therapy over this. The thought that this is my last Christmas with a cat makes me burst into tears. I am totally emotional over this. We had to euthanize our Siamese last month.
On the bright side one of my 1-year old granddaughter's first words was one I taught her. She was fascinated when she heard me say it and immediately copied me. Now she says it whenever she sees at cat.
"Meow".
Is it genetic?

Corky - it sounds like you are already in withdrawal so you definitely need to override your DH and get another one when the time comes. I hate seeing all of the cats at Petsmart, especially the ones whose owners have died. They always look so forlorn. I would love to bring one home but my husband has always said one cat at a time. He said "it's me or a second cat." Well, I thought about it for about a week and decided his Social Security and pensions are a lot more than another cat could earn, so I had to keep DH instead. Yes, there have been moments when i question my decision!!

Corky, Perhaps you can talk him into fostering a cat. The shelter covers medical bills and the cat can go to another foster parent if you want to travel. There's the problem of them being adopted by someone else, but usually I'm pleased with the adopter and think it's best for the cat. I have fostered for years and only adopted 2 to be my own. I agree that a cat-less household is sad and can only be made happy by a cat.

Corky this is hard. I would say it is unfair to be held to a decision that you agreed to 15 years ago. It was something you felt able to say then, but not a contract. A lot has changed since, including your feelings. It must be a very emotional time as you are still in such recent grief for your beloved Siamese. Perhaps DH does not truly know just how incredibly empty the thought of a home without a cat makes you feel. And yes it is definitely genetic

Feelinfeline that is def me in the cartoon. A few years ago I had traveled to see my mother and as I was returning called my DH and told him I was heading back home and that "I am not alone". And his response was "what color is it?" haha
corky60 I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Siamese and Peaches' failing health. And tell your DH that women change their mind all the time. I do hope he understands what this means for you. And I love the story about your granddaughter. haha Meow Yup def genetic.
Snickersmom love that it only took you a week of contemplation. I might have had to take longer . Wonder if your DH realizes his near miss?
