Sorry to not have replied here. Lol,my dog is the reluctant big sister here and is tolerant most of the time,but when food is involved she is still VERY territorial!
The kittens I kept were born in '88 and are long gone. I kept her 3 kittens and they lived a long happy life
Mom was spayed about 3 weeks ago,and the kittens are due for the same in about a month. Things were blissful in terms of it stopped her constant yowling. She had been inside for about 4 mos.,and was very accepting of being an indoor cat,THEN she got out about 3 days ago and she has been constantly yowling ever since
and is desperate to get out again 
Honestly,I had planned to let her out again after she was fixed but am moving in about a week to a place that sits at the back of a property that is on a highway and it just won't be safe to let her out. I had decided not to let her out in the interim in an effort not to whet her appetite- for her sake AND mine. Then this morning I got up and fixed some coffee,and when I got back someone had peed on my bed!
I am assuming it's her protesting being kept inside again. I had actually noticed the smell of urine a couple of nights ago and figured it was maybe on one of the pet beds as everything is askew as I am packing to move, Any thoughts or suggestions?
This brings me to my next concern; I have been living in a studio that is about 425 sq. ft,but am moving to a place that's 400 sq. ft.,but at least has divided rooms and a kitchen,and will save me a much needed $700.00/mo. Do you think it's cruel to keep the 4 cats in such a small space? Again,they have to stay inside because of the proximity to the highway. I pretty much decided to keep them,but do not want to be cruel. The owner of the property knows about all of my pets and is very accepting,and based on the looking around that I did do,that seems pretty exceptional,and I feel quite fortunate.
