Seamus has been a little stressed out since his Daddy left. Periodically, he will spazz and attack me, my ankles and feet for the most part. I did get a pretty hard bite on my face this morning, but I'm thinking that was a love nip that went a little overboard. Anyway, while I wait for my Bach Flower order to arrive, I was going to try smearing vicks vapo rub on my ankles to discourage him. I was wondering if anyone had tried that method with any success before I make my feet all slimy and stinky. I did try eucalyptus scented lotion after reading that cats didn't like that smell, but apparently no one told Seamus. I've tried spraying the computer room with Feliway, since that's where most of the attacks take place (and the stairs) but with little success.
Also, any tips for keeping him off the counter? I tried oiling the surface, but that didn't work. I tried to set a mouse trap upside down, I read that would scare him but not hurt him, and I ended up snapping my own finger.
Sorry for the length and Thank You Thank You for any advice.
