Lol. Mine have done the same to one of my recliners. It seems that they don't care for microfiber, but anything with looser threading is up for the kill!
Reminds me a little of my house.
My Cleo is medicated on 10 mg Amitriptyline daily and I also give her 2 drops of Rescue Remedy with her food at night. She has terrible anxiety.
I give Charlie and Ramsey, Cleo's tormentors, 4 drops each of RR in their food at night.
Albert has no issues...
In my personal experience, taking them out on a leash can make it worse. They assume that they can go out with or without the leash/jacket/harness on and that's when they start strutting out the door at any time. Thankfully, my cats are terrified of outdoors and learned quickly that inside is...
I agree; sounds like she's just finding her most comfy way to potty.
My Charlie put his two front paws on the lip of the box and then hoists one of his back legs up there as well. Then he just lets it rip. It's horribly obscene, but absolutely hysterical.
Ramsey has been a bit of an oddball since we got him. He just does things differently than any cat I've ever known.
Recently, he's taken to redecorating. He has decided that his favorite place to lay is on top of the dryer in the laundry room. However, more often than not, there is laundry...
We have a Drinkwell fountain that the kits love. We leave the lid off of the top (where the spout is) because Albert prefers to drink from there and we do not use filters in ours. They harbor bacteria and our vet instructed us not to use them because of that. We clean ours out once a week and...
Feral cats who don't want to be caught can (and will) FREAK if you attempt to handle them and that can be very hazardous to you.
It seems to me that trapping would be your best solution, if you can manage trick him into it. I suggest that if you do end up trapping this cat, that you take him...
So far it's working very well. I'm giving it on an as needed basis and it seems to help calm Ramsey down dramatically. He used to be obsessive about playing chase and fighting with his siblings, but he's gotten to where he'll stop doing that if you call his name and redirect his attention.
I...
I've always named my cats the first name that popped into my head when I looked at them.
Albert is my orange cat. It seemed like such a funny name for him when he found me as an 8 week old kitten, but now it fits him perfectly!
Cleo's mom looked like an Egyptian kitty; svelte, black and with...
We had a calico kitten come into the shelter late last year who was named Mandy. Then we found that Mandy had a couple of "secrets" she'd been hiding, and she was promptly renamed Manly!
I have four cats and a dog (our foster was adopted 2 weeks ago) and have never had an issue with anyone critisizing the way I tend to my animals or my life. BUT (!), I'm also a bit compulsive about cleanliness and have the advantage of working from home, plus my husband helps out any time I ask...
As a lot of you know, I've been meaning to order Rescue Remedy to try with my cats who suffer from anxiety. Charlie has seperation anxiety, Cleo has "pissy girl syndrome" and Ramsey...well, Ramsey is just C-razy.
My bottle of RR arrived today and I'm so excited! I've already dosed everybody...
