Update on "bald belly syndrome"

newsgroup like this. I never heard of Granicks Bitter Apple. If Ted keeps
licking, I'll look for it.

Cat in Heat
Have your cat spayed. Female cats do suffer while they are in heat. Spayed
females live longer, healthier lives.

toward your heart from the wound, RUN to the...

Why is she biting after being petted ?
Generally, if one of my cats' tail starts to twitch and/or the pupils start
to dilate, I know s/he's getting overstimulated and may bite and/or scurry
away soon. If I just stop, s/he'll stay.
