Time and patience- how long has she had her? Leave her alone, let her be her own cat. She may never want petting, picked up. That's ok. Her attacking behavior tho cant be ignored. Antidressants, rescue remedy, Comfort, feliway,- all the usual. Time out is good. I have cats that get put in condos at night (Bailey) More litter boxes Several feeding areas But sometimes nothing will c hange ingrained behavior and its what it is. And then tough decisions to be made. Good luck to your friend Susan. Reminds me of that big tuxie remember????
