Cat that wets the bed

Gnarly once pooted in the middle of the living room floor while I
was IN the living room on the phone with my mother! I was sputtering
and gasping while my Mom laughed and said, "She knows how to get
your attention!" I was working full time and going to school full time
and her box was not clean enough. She went to the vet, and had
no health problems at all.




One time, my husband had picked me up from work and we both went out to
dinner and a movie, making us get home much later than a normal weekday.
Dash (RB) was quite unhappy about this. She pulled my husband's coat off
the back of a chair, looked right at us, squatted, and peed. From then on,
we always made sure to stop at home first if we were going to go out.

how to send you a message!

I always go to my bed when I don't feel good
either. I just wish they could learn to heave over the edge into a
trash can like I do


Cheeks executed the most amazing projectile vomit
*from her cat perch in the window" all the way to the
floor and all over a bunch of important papers. (None,
of course, as important as she is.) She gets so upset
when she makes a mess that as I run for the paper
towells I say, "It's okay, don't worry, I'll clean it up!"

That should be "pooed." Kitty farts have never upset me much.


I made the mistake of picking up Tiger upside down once, and he farted
in my face. Never again. And he had the worst farts.



Aww! They do the cutest things, don't they?

If I expect to be in trouble, I bring treats. If I go out of town overnight,
I come home with Kira's favorite treat. She forgives me quickly.

After reading so many stories, I have to say that Oscar is the bestest cat
ever. She's tolerant of my sometimes-slack litterbox-changing habits. She
has never punished me for being left alone or for changing her litter. She
has only eliminated outside of the box when she was very ill or when sheer
terror prevented her from approaching the box.

She does seem to leave little poops around the basement, near her litterbox,
but I'm pretty sure that's because they stuck to her long fur for a bit before
dropping.

Mine don't punish me for leaving them alone overlong, but they do generally
throw up. I think they get stressed.

Oscar hasn't thrown up since I switched her to canned and Wellness a few
months ago. Well, she threw up once, but that was very clearly because I'd
just allowed her to gorge herself on freeze-dried chicken. It was completely
different from every other time she's vomitted. Hopefully, I've learned my
lesson about feeding her too much of a good thing.

Luna definitely "horks" more when left alone. We call her the
horkinator. Silly little girl!

I would really like to switch the Lunameister to canned/wet food, but
she barfs it up pretty quickly. She seems to have SUCH a sensitive
tummy. I'd happily take any advice and hints from you wet food pros.
It's only from reading here that I am realizing she needs to be
switched! Fortunatly, Jasper came to us as a wet food eater. Now, the
trick is trying to switch him to a better brand of food. He is a
Friskies-in-the-pouch addict...I've been trying to see what he'll take
to...i bought science diet, pro plan, and nutro...tried em all. He's not
diggin it much. If i mix with the friskies, he'll go for it. Im trying
the mix it method, but he REALLY seems to want his friskies. Brat. ;-)

Luna may just need a higher quality wet food. She must have a sensitivity to
something. Check your ingredients and maybe keep a little food log for her.
Try to find a food without grains (although if dry food is OK you would not
think it was that.) What is the primary protien in her dry food? maybe it
needs to be a food that has no beef or fish etc.
