I want to cut it down to where it will be pretty short, or just have alot more leaves for its height. Is there any pre-treatment that i should give it before i cut it down? How short should i cut it, and what kind of after care? I would post a picture if i could, but cant.

How do you want it to grow? If you give it a little TLC is should have alot more leaves and have a fuller look if thats what you are after. You might want to try repotting it in some well composted well draining soil, with fertilizer to give it a boost.
They seem kinda tough to get to the height you have it, so you couldn't pay me enough to get me to chop mine down.
