    HELP! At wits end with cat...

    She has a cat tower that sits by my sliding door and I usually leave the blinds open enough that she can see out - it looks out on a big tree where the squirrels and birds love to roost. I have toys for her (balls and small mice and such), but I don't like to leave them out because they are all...

    HELP! At wits end with cat...

    I actually did this just a couple of days ago and she won't even TOUCH that part of the couch that has the foil on it. So I know she hasn't peed on the couch in those few days. I've been checking the house for other spots and haven't found any yet, so maybe the foil will help force her back to...

    HELP! At wits end with cat...

    I thought about another cat, but she has been an only cat since I had her sister put down when they were kittens (sister cat was ill and couldn't be cured). Anytime my cat is around another cat she freaks, so I am more scared of what she would do if I brought another cat in than I am of the...

    HELP! At wits end with cat...

    I do spend time with her whenever I am home - I make sure to pet her and let her lay in my lap while I'm on the computer or watching TV. I'm just not home as much these days. I might look into a behaivorist - I think I will call my vet and let her know how things are going and see what other...

    HELP! At wits end with cat...

    No, nothing changed around that time except my schedule. I moved into my apartment almost a year ago, and her litter box is the same one, in the same spot as it has been since I moved in. I changed litters about 6 months ago, so I ruled that out as an issue because she went 5 months with it...

    HELP! At wits end with cat...

    To the suggestions of confining her to a room while gone - I have considered that, but currently the only room in my apartment where that would work (and where her litterbox currently is) is the pantry/laundry room, and it isn't very large, and as much as I'm gone I don't like the thought of...

    HELP! At wits end with cat...

    My cat is peeing on my couch. It is purely behaivoral, I am sure, because she only pees in her litter box and on the couch. If I move the couch, she still pees on it. I've had the cushions off for a while, stacked in the corner, and even though I am sure she can smell her scent on them, she...

    Urine odor

    I've read great things about Dumb Cat (an enzymatic cleaner) - I've only just ordered my first batch, so I'll try to remember to let you know how it works out!

    Nicknames

    I just have the one cat and her official name is Dot, but no one ever calls her that. Everyone calls her Cat or Puddy Tat, and I sometimes call her Sweet Pea (or Tweet Pea) or Baby Girl And I know its a cat forum, but since we are on the subject of nicknames, my dog's name is Riven, but she...

    Head Butts? (sp...)

    My cat does this - she butts her head against my hand if I stop petting her. Its her way of saying "I'm not done with you yet!"

    Cat peeing on couch

    I'm having a problem with my cat and would like some advice before I give up and try to find a new home for her. She is 4 years old. A few times over the last couple of years she has pee'd on furniture, the floor, etc... Each time I took her in to the vet and a UTI or some other infection was...
