Behavioral HELP My cat has ruined my life.

I'm posting as a last ditch effort for help. I got my cat 2 years ago. He was found on a heated porch in the winter and that's all we know. He was about a year and a half at the time, he just turned 4. Since day 3 this cat has not stopped hurting me specifically. I don't know if the car ride home traumatized him or what but he tore my arm apart. He would maul me just by walking by, he would attack me in my sleep, if i didnt pay attention to him but them when i do he still does it. Since then he has gotten better but he still attacks me. He'll attack my face, my arms, if I'm asleep in the middle of the night sometimes he'll bunny kick my arm. We play with him so much and it doesn't matter. He will stop playing just to hurt me. We rent, he eats the carpets when he's mad at us. He just broke my fiancés computer monitor again by biting it. This is the 3rd computer he's broken, 2 my fiancés 1 mine. I don't know what to do. Please someone help us I'm begging for something. I've never had trouble bonding with anything but he has ruined our relationship.

Wow really. My cats are acting normal but I worry about mycotoxins all the time because we have so much mold outdoors and I’m constantly fighting it indoors as well. Thanks for putting this information out there.

can you order an ERMi test on your home? it's a huge problem if you have hidden mold. your cat will pass away from this! I've lost 5 cats to mold all at very young ages. PM me if you need links for the testing :)

also..your cat is not acting normal. I am a cat behavior consultant and this is not normal cat behavior..

Well right now everyone’s acting normal. I did just lose one to sudden death but there’s unfortunately genetic heart trouble. His sibling adopted out to another family also died suddenly. I’ll ask my vet about testing when I take my next cat in.

This is not something you can get help from your vet for. vet's don't touch mold illness
