Hi,
so I have an nine year old (originally stray) cat. Her original owner never picked her up, so she's mine now. She had a bunch of behavioral problems which I have managed to work out over the past year (to all you people with cats who don't use the litter box, howl, over groom themselves etc.: they can change ) My most recent success was her puking without panicking (I'm really thrilled about that one!)
Anyway two problems which I haven't yet been able to tackle:
1. she grooms me at night. Thoroughly. Seriously I'm dripping with drool when I wake up. Also, she probably swallows my hair.
She has a lot of alternatives to sleeping on my bed. I couldn't think of anything else to do yet.
2. She's scared of men. She scratches, screams and runs into hiding if someone enters our apartment.
Any ideas?
Thanks
