    Some Good news

    Milo is our large muscled cat that WANTED to go outside. he would walk from window to window howling basically 24/7 keeping us up all night. At one point we had considered taking him to the pound but they would put him down with behavior problems. He is a VERY smart cat wit hall his claws but...

    Invisable fence? Neighbor problem!!!

    Lets get one thing straight right now I'm a guy! Camille Eonich - no no - we were not really too keen on drugs and euthanasia was never ever considered. Taking him to a shelter WAS but we found out that every shelter is so full of cats they are putting them down - especially adult cats with...

    Invisable fence? Neighbor problem!!!

    GoldenKitty45 - where are you getting this stuff? "I can't do this or that" ?? Did I ever say that?? bothering the neighbors? Well - he did step on their lawn and since the neighbor did say their loose dog COULD chase Milo we should put Milo on a leash. "YOU need to confine him to your...

    GoldenKitty45 - we are not going to rehome Milo - I suppose you would rehome your child if he had a problem? You are asking us to dump Milo off in the country? Yea - very caring! sheesh! beandip - what spraying? no problem there - plus Feliway does not work at all. When Milo DID have...

    Invisable fence? Neighbor problem!!!

    "why can you not put up a fence?" We live on a golf course and its a new area - the "rules" say no fences to keep an open look. It does look nice so I can not complain about that. The neighbor is a VERY controlling woman and ticked us off many times when we were building the house but that is...

    Invisable fence? Neighbor problem!!!

    "So if you can't resolve the problem you can find him a home in the far country on a farm or take him to the shelter." We ARE in the country and sheltering is as good as killing him as they are all too full. Milo was an outdoor cat until he was rescued, We THINK he was born outdoor and was...

    Invisable fence? Neighbor problem!!!

    We can not put up a physical fence in the yard so we were thinking of invisible fences anyway (so not Purfect fence)- just wondering if they work for cats. The PROBLEM is that milo can get any collar/harness off so far - even tight ones. It's tough having a large cat that is in shape (no fat)...

    Invisable fence? Neighbor problem!!!

    Do you mean like a big dog kennel? They let their dog run loose and we have to kennel our cat? Keep Milo cat all night in a kennel outside? Milo could be put down if he can not go outside. He will not shut up inside the house. I don't think you know the gravity of the situation. He is...

    Invisable fence? Neighbor problem!!!

    I'm a little upset this morning. You see we have had a history with Milo and his needing/wanting to roam outside. When we lived in Madison we would not let him out because of traffic. As you know we were at wits end with his constant howling wanting to go outside. We even put him on Prozac...

    One note about Prozac and cats

    I know most of you have never considered Prozac and cats and I was the same way less then a week ago but . . . . . I am 100% sure Milo is happier and not so anxious as he used to be. We did not take this lightly. HOWEVER - having squirted a few meds from time to time down his throat I knew the...

    Milo - Day 5 on Prozac

    WOW - what a total difference. We gave Milo his first 1cc of Prozac (fluesitoid or whatever it was called) and there was immediate results . . . too much in fact. Milo as staggering around cross eyed and VERY mellow! He was even to blitzed to purr when he loved doing. After the second day...

    How to inform cat of death of companion

    Oddly enough our cats and dog do not do ANYTHING. Blake(Corgi) and Gabby(cat) were very concerned when Snickers was dieing. Blake would lay next to him with Gabby close buy. When snickers passed - it was like he was just . . . . nothing. No interest at all. It was like they knew that...

    Milo is on Prozac

    I cut and paste this from todays blog. http://grinderswarehouse.blogspot.com/ That is right. Milo the cat has joined the Prozac Nation. With his recent spaying problems and constant howling we took him to the vet and there is nothing physically wrong. The opinion is that with us moving...

    I've never given up on a cat, but . . . ..

    I agree 100% - he does "make love" to one of his cat beds and I swear he in heat or something. He goes from window to window howling NEEDING to get out. We're leaving him off Thursday for an all day peeing trial! I thought UTI and Crystals were the same thing. I also thought that once...

    My Cat Stalks Me When I Have My Coffee...WHAT THE?

    Milo will jump up on ANY table and knock off anything that smells with coffee. He loathes the smell and has even tried to push the coffee maker off the counter tops. A few weeks ago I was reading the Sunday paper when he jumped up and tipped of the cup. WHY ARE WE DRINKING THAT POOPY WATER!
