Well we would take him to the vets if he appeared in any way unwell, but we can't afford to take him just for a check-up right now as it's so expensive.

We do have scratching posts which him and the others use. I have to admit the other cats do occasionally scratch where they're not supposed to as well, but they are generally well-behaved and Dusty is caught doing it the most. As for the spraying, we often catch Dusty doing it so we know it's him.

He has the freedom to go inside and outside as much as he likes when we're home. During the day he normally chooses to stay outside. He was originally a stray, but now he's very friendly with all humans.
