    Do I dare use the word...success??

    For those who have been following the saga of Jim and Sterling peeing all over the house, their confinment stage, the medication, the suppossed success until I allowed the fosters in contact with them again......
    Well, I gave it another shot yesterday. I allowed Chevy to be out in the house with my residents for the day. I knew in my heart that I would be cleaning up some pee spot or other by nightfall, but he just BEGGED to stay out and resisted every attempt to go back to Timmy and the others. So I gave in. (oh, as an explaination, twice a day when the biggest group of cats are locked up for dinner, Timmy and Chevy get a chance to run around the lower 2 floors...the shy fosters need to stay on their 3rd floor retreat) So they have been associating with Willow and Calvin and Fern and Rutherford for quite a while now, but the others couldn't see them as they were behind a closed door.
    So back to the story......
    NO PEE SPOTS were found.
    Yippee!!!!
    Chevy still spent the night upstairs but I think I will give them another go today if he want to stay out. Cross your fingers.

    Impressive! I'd be jumping for joy. I'm getting tired of washing my daughter's comforter - Allen has been using that for the past few weeks.

    Yay! Progess!

    Crossing fingers and paws that everything goes okay!

    I wish pee were our problem, keep finding little piles of poop outside the litter tray and both kitties are so close in size that I can't tell which one of them it is! LOL

    poop is easier to clean up (as long as it is a solid)

    We did the same thing yesterday, Had Chevy have the run of the house during the entire day, and I can't seem to find any spots. So this is good news.

    Chevy spends the nigt with the fosters to prevent anything from happening in the middle of the night, but I will probably allow him out again today if he wants to.

    What great news!!! I sure hope you continue with SUCCESS!
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers
