Hello everyone and thanks for taking the time to read this. I will do my best to keep it short. I have a male cat about a year and a half old, he is fixed and can be the sweetest little thing. Then he gets in these hyper moods and things get real chaotic around here. We have an entertainment stand and he knows he isn't allowed up there. I have tried physically moving him to the ground and interacting with him or playing with the laser light. It works for a bit and then he is back up there. He also likes to get behind the t.v. where he knows I can't reach him and play with the cords and wires. Pretty soon I am getting annoyed and snapping "Damn it Wyatt. Get down!!" He sits there and stares at me... I have also resorted to using a spray bottle on him but he doesn't care. Unless its right in his face and I hate doing that to him. Another huge problem I have is that early in the morning he is clawing up my box spring matteress. My gf is extremely frustrated with this behavior. She has tried spraying him, raising her voice, clapping her hands, and who knows what all else. He just doesn't stop. He has now started climbing the door frames and I am doing my best to catch him in the act. When I do I tell him NO, and give him toys while setting him on the cat tree. Please help me. Its like nothing I do works and I am not sure why he is like this. I have five other cats that he can pick on and yet he chooses to be a problem child. I thought age and getting him fixed would help resolve these issues. I think it made him worse. Any and all ideas/suggestions are welcome.
