Hi there!
You may want want to e-mail Dr. Leela to see it she might help you with a prescription for your cat.
I have tried to explain that subsquent behaviors are due to events in her life that were not natural and therefore you either have to "work" with the left over behaviors or not.
I don't buy the argument that any cat can not be contained, over the last 10 years and well over 1000 cats, I have taken the meanest, rowdiest street toms and made them into pets within weeks. I have no doubt that your cat is "quick with her mouth" -this is well documented and expected in declawed cats. I foolishly assumed that she was kept indoors because she had been declawed. If allowed outside you need to realize that it is contributing and reinforcing "marking" behaviors (which is how cats communicate)-you can't have it both ways...
