I kept telling her that!!! Really mental!! They're gone now. I have a cat that lives in my yard, good enough for me. Or maybe it's a raccoon...hmm

LOL, which is basically a cat with opposable thumbs. Run! RUN!!!!!

x 2.

All the cats we've ever owned (currently have 2) were so easy. Basically just HAVE a litter box and they figured out the rest. Some were kittens whe we got them and others were spca adoptees. Never heard of having to litter-train a cat...

We have a baby ourselves and luckily the cats love her. Very good cats and even tolerate rough petting/hair pulling while we try and train the baby.

Having a dayhome might help tho. The cats are around kids all day.

You guy's might want to try some kitty prozac for your psycho kitties. lol No, realy, they make the stuff, just tell your vet you need kitty prozac and they'll know what your talking about. I know people who it has made a huge improvement in their cats behavior, the difference between keeping the cat and getting rid of it.
An outdoor cat run can also go a long way for making kitty happy. If your not a handyman, they make some realy nice ones at www.thecatsden.net

I was thinking about building a cat run. Perhaps when the weather warms up a bit I will give it a shot.

- Nice to see someone from Pincher Creek on here :p I was born in Pincher and my dads family ranched in the pass before they moved into town.

Realy?? How wierd is that? lol I've lived here all my life! :smile:

My female cat is a bit psycho. She's had a nasty habit of licking off all the fur on her belly or her side (always seems to be the left side??). For years I was shelling out over a thousand for meds and kitty anti-depressants. I finally stopped a few years ago because it just wasn't worth it. She still did it even on different meds and different treatments. She's not great with kids, but she's never hurt either of my girls and my girls are definitely rambunctious ones. She also "grooms" people if they're sitting on my couch. She'll lick their hair like crazy. :lol: My male on the other hand is half stupid. My kids can climb on him, and pick him up, and pull his hair, or push him around, and my dumb kitty keeps coming back for more. He's the most loveable little man I've ever met. Plus he loves water, so when I was trying to train him not to do anything by using a squit gun, he loved it. So I had to find alternate solutions. :lol:

If I didn't have these two, I'd definitely ask where that poor kitty was. But sadly after 11 and 10 years I don't think my kitties would welcome a new kitty with open arms. :sad:
