Your parents should be informed. Someday your brother or stepsister are going to overdo it and get scratched or bitten (at which time the adults should be blamed for not controlling the children).

If your parents aren\\\’t taking responsibility by teaching the kids how to behave appropriately with living creatures, it would be a good idea for you to step in. Show them how to pet them gently. Ask them if they like when someone hits or squeezes them - likely they don\\\’t! Tell them it\\\’s the same way for the cat. Like jpete46 said, if they keep this up they\\\’re likely to get scratched or bitten. It\\\’s the adults\\\’ responsibility to teach them to respect animals.

Tell them not to do that when they do it. If they don\\\’t listen, don\\\’t let them be near the cats. Tell them that the cats will respect, like, and come to them if they are nice to the cat.

don\\\’t let them near the cats. that hurts the cats feelings where your brother hits the cat. pet your cat over and over to make it feel better. keep your brother away from the cat. now about your sister ask her to stop because it is animal cruelty and ask her also if you were the cat how would you feel being squeezed. and tell them both to be nice and gentle with the cat.

Keep the cats in cages with food water and a litterbox or lock the kids in their rooms! Send them to time out every time they do that or pet the cats and keep the kids away from the cats at all times.

Spank them hard as @#$$, tell them they ARE NOT ALLOWED IN ANY WAY FOR ANY REASON TO HARM A CAT. Tell them if they don\\\’t stop, you would report them for animal abuse and hold no mercy!! Don\\\’t even threaten, get some hard evidence, and do it now and make an example of them! I am completely against putting hands on a child but when a cat\\\’s safety is in jeopardy, take out the belt!
