fair point. I guess our experience overwhelmed me. But all the same... boys' bedroom need to air during the day....

I remember an episode from a sitcom where that happened.

So you think females are queens and males are just...well...males. For Jim's sake, I'm hoping you only apply that philosophy to cats.

Haha rich -- "queen" is the name for a female cat who is not spayed.

It's been my experience that, as long as they're not into spraying, male cats are very well behaved litter-box wise. Females are the weird ones. I never had a problem with any of our male kitties unless they were sick. Female cats tend to piss on the floor for other reasons, especially if there are other females in the house.

Actually, Ancient Cat is sick -- vet says it's a kidney thing - but she's not sick enough to put down just because of it, and we can't treat her without mega bucks, and even then there's no guarantee she'll behave. She's 20, for God's sake. Not much of a return on investment there.

The smart thing to do is to shut Ancient Cat up in the bathroom when we are not able to watch her. We do that, when we remember. It helps.

I'm sorry for hijacking your thread, Mr. Squirrel. :)

That's OK, he'd pretty much played out his project. We're just keepin' the thread warm for updates. ;)

When I am in a better mood I will update...

Thanks for keeping it warm though.

Isn't an intact male called a Tom?

Not by the breeder lady. She called him "Kibby", or "the male".

I came home to a dog vomit laced leather couch today... nice.

It's a meme, I tell you.

I got late to your smelly coach party, otherwise I would have suggested a solution based on vinegar. That helped in my case and it did not ruin the leather. Removed the doggy stinch, though...

Welcome to the Cellar, victorm. :D
Better late, than when the stench is still strong.
