How to talk your cat out of a fight

CATS are a lot like people in that they can be calmed down if you get them right at the beginning. However, once they’ve lost their temper, they take at least 20 minutes to calm down.

Angry cats are dangerous to touch because they’re geared up for a fight, and so uptight that they can’t tell friend from enemy. They can’t help themselves because their flight-or-fight system revs up, flooding their bodies with adrenaline and other hormones.
