Thanks for your insights. Beleive me, I know everyone has good
intentions with their suggestions. I didn't get a dog. I got a cat. I
didn't want the responsibility of taking a dog out. I thought there
might be other ideas.

Please, if you are going to yell at me and tell me I am a BAD

PERSON,
don't bother replying. I just want REAL suggestions.


Have you considered training him to leash and harness and taking

him out
for walks? He'd get more exercise, stimulation, and the joy of

chasing
bugs. LOL

My Rowan would go stir crazy if I didn't take her out.


Hi, thanks. I've considered it. My concern is that he will then cry

to
go out on a regular basis. P.S. no bugs here - it's WINTER~! Thanks.


What if he does? It sounds like you don't like him much at the moment.
Six months is a long time to put up with an unhappy cat in a
one-bedroom apartment, though, so I can see why he might be getting on
your nerves. However--if you really want to keep him you will be
willing to put some effort into making him happy. If not, I can see
why you feel guilty for wanting to get rid of him, but don't know what
to say about that. His reaction seems extreme due to a change like a
one bedroom smaller apartment. Did you say he was neutered?
