Hi!
I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem with their cat. About two weeks ago, my cat Henry and I were watching TV when he jumped up and ran into the kitchen, where he's basically been hanging out from midnight to 8 AM every day since.
Last Thursday I got home from work and walked in the door to find a dead mouse on the living room floor, Henry resting peacefully next to it , but also looking very proud.
I've looked everywhere and cannot find the source of the mice, but I have placed peppermint oil in strategic places and apparently they have not visited again.
Henry continues to camp out in the kitchen from midnight till at least 8 AM in the morning, determined that something is underneath the paneling of my dishwasher and garden cupboards.
Henry is usually my TV buddy; we watch TV together every night and he comes to bed and stays with me almost every night or at least he did until two weeks ago.
I am at a loss as to what to do and I can’t figure out why he’s so obsessed unless there really are still nice in the paneling and I’m just not seeing them. I miss hanging out with my cat so much.
The only plus side is he seems more stimulated and less bored than he sometimes has been in the past and he is more trim because he’s moving around a lot, as he runs whenever he is away from the kitchen and thinks he hears something.
If anyone has any suggestions on what is going on or if you’ve had this happen with your cat I would love to hear from you.
Also: is my placing peppermint oil spray in strategic places hurting my cat?
Thank you for any advice or input!
Angie
