I got a new simase cat very recently and love him like a brothers but he comes with existing issues. First Hong Kong is very noisey mewling at this and meowing at that creating ruckusus at ALL times of the night. I work many hours and I cannot be sleep deprevated or my jobs will suffer. Next Hong Kong scratches EVERYTHING in site. I have a wonderful wicker furniture collections that he has turned to his personal itching posts. It has taken many years to afford my own furnitures so this is disheartening in the slightest. My questions dictates my futures with Hong Kongs. 1.) is it ok to remove his vocal cords to quite his mewling 2.) is it ok to remove his claws 3.) if either of these are too inhumane I have also considered putting him to sleep. This option would at least be humane and he would not suffer but I do like having a pet and would miss our bonding. Do you know how much this stuff costs? Please give me any inputs.

1. Saimese are vocal cats, get used to it or find someone who would like to have her.
2. Get a scratching post
3. Bash yourself in the nuts with a meat meat tenderizer for thinking of putting the animal to sleep

Do 2 and 3. Mostly #3.

The cat is probably feeling pretty displaced. You need to devote time to him to help him adjust and settle in. Buy a scratching post, or one of those "Cat Towers" that's covered in carpeting. When he tries to scratch your furniture (wicker, ugh), either squirt him with a small watergun to make him stop, or grab him and put him on the cat tower.

if he is an indoor cat then i would have his claws removed but removing vocal chords is just wrong

yea removing vocal chords is fscked up man. You're the kind of sick b@stard who should never get a pet. My brother adopted a dog who i think had his vocal removed. I always wondered what kind of sick fscker does that. I'd do #4. give the cat away

Soft Claws can help protect your furniture. I also recommend a scratching post. Pay attention to his scratching habits; some cats prefer vertical scratching posts over horizontal and vice versa.

Reptile misters are available in any pet store and are great discipline tools for cats.

...You're a ROYAL ASS. Remove their vocal cords? Are you FVCKING STUPID? Siamese are some of the most loyal and amazing cats. I don't think you deserve him. And if you put him down, so help me I'll hunt you down and sick PETA on your ass.

I have tried squirtings when he mewls but this did not break him of his noise. I did not think to try it for his scratchings. Maybe I Should mix in lemon juice or anti-cat nips in the squirt guns.

You obviously have never had the audacities to have a REAL job andhave to get sleep while your simase cat is mewling at the tops of his lung. Try sleeping with mewling and you will be seeing what I am saying. Maybe a dog would be better.

I've water-trained several of my cats to not scratch, and NONE of them hate me. Only one cat I've ever had hated me, and she just hated everybody and everything. We gave her to some friends who owned a farm, they said she made an excellent ratter, despite that she was completely antisocial.

OP, I don't think you're meant to be a cat owner. Find your feline friend a new home before you start mutilating him, and get a dog.

-Get the kitty a scratching post, and make sure it knows that you do not approve of him using your furniture as such
-Siamese cats 'talk' a lot. You should've known that when you got him
-Stab yourself in the balls for thinking about euthanizing a healthy animal

Yes, use the brick to smash your sack so the world won't have to deal with your sick, inhumane descendants. Then go jump in a large body of water, smashed balls and all.

I don't think you're a dog person either. Dogs take more time to take care of and they'll bark a lot too. If you can't properly care for a cat, there's no way in hell you'll be able to take care of a dog.
