@malpluscats: Replying to @King🐾 & Onyx🙋🏻♀️ never thought I’d be getting harassed (not by this account, a different one) for refusing to scruff my cat who hates water but here we are lol. Scruffing cats SCARES them. It does not calm them. It scares them. It paralyzes them. I’m not a mom cat. It’s not appropriate. Look at any of the modern day research. None of it supports scuffing. I’m a big girl. I can handle my 5 pound kitten. I scruffed Phoebe once very gently when she was being too aggressive with another one of my cats. I’ll never forget the look on her face. She was terrified. I felt horrible. I cried about it. Still think about it. There’s NO NEED FOR IT. #fyp #kittensoftiktok
Lemme just say… i worked in vet med and I’ve witnessed what scruffing can do to a cat 🥺 it’s never the preferred option for any educated

i’m not saying to scruff while holding her mid air. just saying to at least support her back while she is in the air. i don’t scruff my cat either unless she is getting a bath and her feet are touching the floor of the tub and i BARELY hold it.

Yeah as a long time cat lady and rescue volunteer they don’t like that. She will let you know how she wants to be held.

Deleted my comment on your other video because I didn’t see size of your cat! Definitely would never recommend scruffing a kitten this size. I was picturing a bottle baby, who physically relax when scruffed until they’re about 3-4 weeks old. Didn’t think anyone would be telling you to scruff a cat this size 🤦♀️

My mom had a long haired cat, and she used to trim the fur around that area, so that it wouldn’t have poopy mess in its fur. 💖

Maybe just don’t hold her because she’s obviously not comfortable

When a scratch doesn’t wanna be held put it on the ground that’s how you build trust and that’s how it stays with you long
