I think you'd better tell me what other "odd" habits your Thumper had so that I can check them off against my Thumper.

One thing I am relieved about is that this behavior doesn't appear to have anything to do with territory or male dominance. Far from being a sprayer, Thumper once led me to 3 places where Tom had sprayed when he managed to climb up onto the top deck and get in the living room. I told Thumper that day that he'd more than earned his $35 adoption fee (it's a reduced rate for FIV+ cats) and I've told him often that he's very special.
