Thread: HELP! MY MAINE COON IS BULLYING ME! I am at the end of my rope.

Hi Alekto! Thank you so much for sharing your story with me. Glad to hear things are better for you! Finn doesn't attack every time we walk or ever attacked my head, thank goodness! I cant imagine that! Finn was neutered on the last week of Nov. 2012. So that is almost 7 months ago. I have tried both Feliway items and also calming sprays and chews. Nothing works. Ive also tried grabbing him by his scruff. When he was younger this was easier to do and he would eventually go limp but now he doesn't give in. He manages to resist by pushing his back legs off on your arm or wiggles around like crazy til you just let go. We also tried time outs. Since we live in a one bedroom apartment, we have to put him in the bathroom or the bedroom and he throws fits. As I've mentioned earlier the bathroom is somewhere he cant be left alone or he will urinate in the sink and claw at our towels and toilet paper. Even when we did try the short time outs, he just went right back to what he was doing. Last night, he flipped over his travel water bowl and rolled around in the spilled water. Yes, hes now found a way to flip over this bowl too! Water went everywhere. So I took his bowl and left it in the sink in hopes that he will forget about it for a bit. I refilled it a few minutes later. He went on to his litter box and kicked around litter for about 5 minutes and right back putting his paws in to the water bowl. I am sure Dexter loves to find litter in his fresh water! But later before sleep, Finn hopped on the bed and sat on my chest and purred. I was in love all over again. I just never know when hes going to be lovey and then bite out of nowhere. Most of the time when he comes at me purring he will eventually have enough and walk away and sit by my feet and rest his head. Then he will gently hug my foot and take a lick at a toe and out of nowhere chomp down like it is a piece of chicken. I cant understand why after almost a year of doing that and making me yelp, he continues to do it. At those times its not even like hes being malicious. As if he thinks he can just sit down n chew on my foot, sock on or off like its a dog bone. At first I thought maybe he is teething but he has all of his adult teeth for a while now. Hes so darn crazy, hes already broken the tip off of his adult incisor on God knows what!
