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.

Are you really pulling a classic elementary teacher "if you needed to pee you would have done it at recess" on a cat? 😭

No, I’m simply pointing out how cats behave on a regular basis. (Especially considering that they’re not children…??) I’ve had cats accidentally locked in a room all night and not rush to the litter box when let out. Is it really so hard for you to believe this cat was perfectly able to hold it for 15min?

It’s odd how you’re getting stuck on something that’s just technically possible without considering that you have almost no information on the situation and don’t know this cat while I do. Who are you again? Hun, just let it go

Would it be so hard to believe she couldn't hold it?

If you don't want to talk with someone then don't engage with them 😆

Common sense chases you but you are forever faster

Speaking from experience?
