I'm not aware of cats pooping or peeing out in publicview, they usually cover it, right? She seems anti-kitty and mainly bored, some soap opera drama to liven up her dull day.

Sicy, why don't you want to get her the rabies shot? What if she escapes and gets bit or scratched by another animal and gets it?!?Even though Mittens is strictly an indoor cat, we make sure he gets his every 3 years. Sometimes it makes them a little ill, but it is better than getting deathly ill. I am sure you wouldn't want that to happen...

I know that you were just purposed to...when are you planning on getting married? Are you guys going to be living there? Have you thought about buying a house when you move in together? BTW, your babies are so precious...and good luck with any future decisions!!

Yeah, I sort of figured that...that's why we don't live there! An average house here in Houston is about $125K compared to California's, I believe an easily...$250K?! We are actually still renting until I get out of school, which should be in the next 2 or 3 years since I have to go part-time because of work...but the joy of renting is when you rent from your grandfather who lives next door...we pay $550 a month (3/2/2), we get trash service and lawn service....not too shabby!

I already said why I dont want to give them rabies shot.
And I already said that after hearing people out here, I would do it now. Zoey has already had hers for the year.


Yes of course I'd love to buy a house but who the hell can afford one.

Amen to that! We've been househunting for over a year and haven't found squat. The houses are out there but prices are just ridiculous. It doesn't help much that we're the newest "bedroom community". People are commuting to DC from here and it has driven everything sky high. Ugh! Let's not even get started on the PMI garbage. Yeah, I'd love to put 20% down but I don't happen to have 30 grand laying around the house. Grrrrrrr.

No.. its ok..
I am just so stressed out.. I feel like I'm going to have a nervous breakdown. I'm feeling like maybe I shouldnt have gotten a kitten.. I dont know, I feel like I cant handle it like its just making me want to have an anxiety attack or something. I just dont know how you all do it with so many cats.. I hope this feeling goes away soon.

Everyone here at my office keeps telling me I need to take home one of those stray kittens, but I know that Mittens wouldn't like it. I can't put him through that. I am sticking to my guns and sticking with one cat and one dog...
Good luck Sicy.

Me too, and it's a really hard one. She sounds like an absolute b*tch!

Sicy, you've only had the kitten for a few days and it does take some time for things to settle down. Snowball had a companion cat for 10 years, (companion cat died) and everything between the two cats just kept improving over the years. Two cats are a lot of fun, just try to relax and enjoy them!!!!

I ALWAYS feel like then when I get a new cat. The feeling will go way and things will get better. You won't be able to imagine just having one cat!

Aww, sending a hug right back at you, Sicy!

I second what Princess Purr said, it is perfectly normal to feel like this with a new cat. It will settle down, and so will the kitten.

Sicy after 4 or 5 you don't get that feeling any more. Hee hee hee! By that time there is no sanity left only kitty kisses and head bumps.

Take a vitamine B12 tablet, light some scented candles in the bathroom, make a nice bubble bath or use some bath salts and just give yourself some me time.

I think that between the kitten and the trapping you have not been taking proper care of your self. Just take a break and them read my suggestion on the other thread about your landlady.

Sicy,
I felt that way with one kitten, a few weeks ago(lol). I have not had a cat for some years.
Now everything has settled into a daily routine, I have learned to hide my reading glasses and keys(lol).

I agree with taking a stress break, if you drink go have a glass of wine with future hubby. Go dancing, or just go for a long walk.

Most of all just enjoy the cats, it just takes some time.
