The Cat Thread

Happy birthday Patch!

In my house live 2 dogs and 2 cats. Generally the dogs live downstairs and the cats live upstairs. One of the cats (lets call her "Tilly") just pisses where and when she feels like it. On our bed. On anything left on the floor. In bags. At least once a week, sometimes more.

Either the pissing must stop or the cat must go. I'm fed up with living inside an animal toilet. Any suggestions for either route very welcome.

Notes:

we've tried Feliway with no success
The cat doesn't seem to care about the dogs or be stressed at all. She just likes pissing on things :(

Is she stressed about the other cat? Is she neutered? I think you ought to give her vet a call see if they have any proper suggestions? My experience with vet is that they are usually pretty good with giving free advice on the phone anyway. If not, if she is from a cat home, give them a call and see what they can suggest?

Sorry not really answering your question, but I do think there is a territory marking thing.

My partner seems determined to feed the cats human food from her plate. This pisses me off and we have a few arguments about this. Feels like she is trying to buy their love. I say this is a bad idea for the cats health. Also it gives the cats a bad habits.

The cats also have found that the kitchen worktops as a fun area. The other half also doesn't stop them, once again as she doesn't want the kittens to hate her. Now there are a couple of plants on the window sill that the cats seem to like munching on.

This is driving me insane, the inabilityto tell them off and being too slow to stop them or catch them.

Consider yourself lucky. I have 3 Maine coon and came home to find a dead squirrel in the washing up bowl and a live one in the shoe rack.

This bastard left us another "present" which I trod on at 7:30am when I went down to feed them . So that's 3 squirrels this week . At this rate there won't be any left to hibernate. Wifey wouldn't let me take a picture out of "respect"

That's a big mouse?!

Great portrait by the way!

Small cat.

Wonder if they snacked on the rodents? Also are you supposed to release squirels?

Came down to another partially eaten mouse today with blood up the skirting boards..

It was beyond release. It had gone to a better place.

Touchwood Patch hasn't brought in a sigle livestock in for months... does it mean

1. She thinks I can feed myself
   
2. She is being fed just OK
   
3. She can't be bothered to hunt
   
4. She can't find anything interesting
   
5. She is just plain lazy
   
6. She doesn't love me anymore
   
7. She has been gifting someone else I don't know
   
8. She hunts and eats outside
   
   

Or all of the above?

Fake as we all know the earth is flat.
