Thread: Weird Behaviour is driving us to distraction

Certain MC's are very good hairdressers,our Merlyn RIP was a classic,up behind you on the settee front paw either side on your shoulder & just gentle licks that quite honestly could send you to sleep then came along Shimba & Wellynton Boots,Shimba got the hang of it pretty quickly but WB was really rough he would pad your head with claws out but purring & pull at your hair & make your eyes water so without looking at him we used to move forward & tell him no gently & then sit back again & let him have another go,when he was gentler we just told him he was a good boy & let him carry on,must have been near to six months before he got the hang of doing it nice & gentle but now he is the best punk hair stylist around...... dread the doorbell ringing after he has rearranged it.
As Roxy gets upset & if you really don't want to see if you can get her to be more gentle could you have something close at hand or a mouse in your pocket that you could distract her with straight away rather than having to tell he no,she most probaly is trying to show you affection but hasn't got control of it.....x
