If so, how long is the training? You said you thought about three months above - I'm guessing that is to date - how much longer till he's done and back? Are you pleased so far? Was it fairly costly? As you can tell, I've been intrigued by this for a while. Have been thinking a little bit about it in case we get a Shepherd for the next dog, but that is hopefully still another 5 years or so (hopefully). |

The past month or so Oscar has started pissing in the corner of my half bath on the first floor. It was very infrequent at first but now has become more of a regular occurrence. I have no idea why. His litter box is upstairs, and he is beyond well trained. His litter box is cleaned daily and is always accessible. We've been in the house 14 months now so it's not an adjustment thing. No other animals have ever been in the house so it's not a marking his territory thing. One wall of the bathroom is an exterior wall, I was thinking maybe he smelled a raccoon or a neighborhood cat outside but the corner he prefers is not the exterior wall. I don't get it. I started cleaning it with tilex thinking the smell would deter him but he did it again this morning. Are there any kind of repellent sprays I can use? Not happy

I'm guessing that gives you an idea of how much I like cats. Funny thing is, I'll pet them if they are there at another person's house, and I appreciate the presence of a pet, but would never ever get one. I just don't see them being good company or excited like a dog. What if you were to don a pair of dish gloves so you don't get his hair on you and grab him and rub his face in the urine next time he does that? Pretty sure he wouldn't like that very much and might get the drift that if he does that, he gets it on him. Probably a bunch of people calling PETA on me right now, but I don't care. |

I gave Hamilton a week before I was going to call the vet and have him checked out. He is an indoor/outdoor cat so I started letting him spend more time outside so he could go wherever. It took care of itself in a few days. Quote:

Is there anything different recently such as a change in cat litter or litter box moved? I know cats can be very picky. We switched brands of litter one time, and found ours using the upstairs bathroom sink. Cleaned and bleached the sink, then swapped back over to the usual brand of litter and things went back to normal. But like Rudi mentioned, there is usually a reason for it. If it continues, I think a trip to the vet even just to rule out a UTI wouldn't hurt. But I have also seen cats just get "bored" with their litterbox...and changing the box for a different style worked.

Can you blame him?
It is possible I suppose but I wouldn't think so. I'm only a cat whisperer not an MD. |

The vet did say his heartbeat was fast. Thanks so much, I'll have to look into that Natures Miracle

Transporting said foodstuffs? I've never dropped milk I was consuming, but the leaking one, or that time I had to stop rapidly and the gallon jug decided it had enough and lept to the back of the seat, bounced onto the floor, and proceeded to leak out all over the floorboards

We have two. One who is 17+...we aren't quite sure how old, and the other who is about 4-5. But with just the one, we kept a box upstairs and one downstairs. If you don't thoroughly keep it clean...they will go looking for other areas!
