Xander again

[dragonyphoenix]

I'm not keeping my new cat, Xander. He's gotten increasingly aggressive. As far as I can tell it's redirected aggression, which is sort of like projection in a person. Since he'd been abandoned, I can see that he has issues, but I can't even get close to him without him lashing out a claw at me. After he finally got a good scratch in, I decided enough was enough. I feel guilty because he's a very nice and docile cat underneath this, but this is just too much.  ;-(

I am so sorry. I understand how hard this is for you. Sometimes the baggage someone brings, even a furry someone, is too much to handle.

Sometimes the baggage someone brings, even a furry someone, is too much to handle. That's a great way to put it. Thank you. I've been feeling guilty, like if only I was a better person I could handle it.
