Eli sprayed in the shower stall
I saw him do it. I think he meant for me to see. I think he's frustrated by
not being able to spray outdoors like he used to, and at the same time he knows it's inappropriate to spray in the house. So he found a compromise. "I can spray in the shower stall because it doesn't hurt anything." I've noticed other cats in the shower stall sniffing that spot. I sure hope it's enough to keep him happy. |

When Pi decided to pee in the sink, while looking straight at me, it turned out he had a UTI. Chak -- If I had to live my life again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner. --Tallulah Bankhead |

Winnie does that too and it is the only place he sprays. It is really quite convenient to clean up. He isn't altered, never sprays anywhere else, takes care of our two entire lady cats when they are in need and never gets either of them pregnant. What a gallant little fellow. If Sunset or Missy did get pregnant, we could find good homes for a few purebred Himalayan kittens, so it wouldn't be a tragedy, but it is better this way. Will in New Haven -- |

Someone musked on my coat and also put a pee spot on my PJs. I'm blaming SMokey for the musk, but I don't know who is responsible for the peeing. That was a few days ago and I'm keeping my eye open for other inappropriate pee, but right now I think I just let the PJ pile get too high and someone decided to dig in it for a wee-wee. --Fil |

Keep an eye on him. When Pi decided to pee in the sink, while looking straight at me, it turned out he had a UTI. When Fin needed my attention, he'd wait until I was actually on the throne, then he'd climb into the sink and pee. It was his way of saying, 'Clean the box, woman!' I cleaned the box. The next target was either my bed or the couch. Jane - owned and operated by Princess Rita. |

How come you don't get them fixed - are you breeding? Joyce The cats were with Micki when I moved in with her, except for WooToo whom I inherited from my mom. These cats never go outdoors, so the only issues are whether Winnie woudl produe the typical tomcat stinking spray, which he doesn't, and whether we want kittens. Micki would like some kittens from Sunrise or Missy by Winnie. They are beautiful cats and would produce excellent Himalayan kittens. Sunrise and Missy have been mothers before and proved devoted and affectionate ones. Missy's temperment, she hates hoomaans, does not seem to transfer to her kittens who are very nice pets. Sunrise is a diva and her kittens probably do think very highly of themselves but they allow hoomans to serve them as does the Diva herself. She even consents to be petted. Micki would like to keep one or even two and says, and I agree, that others would be easy to place or even to sell. While I agree that a five-cat household could absorb a kitten easily, I am not sure about a five-cat one Labarador retriever and one parrot household. At least Buy Run, the Pomeranian, has moved out, although he still visits. It is probably all moot as Winnie only fires blanks. Will in New Haven -- |
