I've Finally Had It!

[K & L]

This is the first time in months I've come home and didn't have pee to clean-up. I'm not getting my hopes up totally that the problem may be solved, but this is a good start. He's out there meowing wanting inside and it does break my heart. I had to do this with Bentley and now he doesn't even want to come inside. Why do they have to do what comes naturally? They should know a good thing when they have it!

Sounds like your cat run is a great place. The cats are safe and they can do the things that are part of being a territorial predator without harming their human's home. Some cats "get" human rules and some just don't. It sounds like the best possible compromise. It is hard that he cries for inside time, but his behavior inside was "crying" for freedom to be free to act out his needs too. In my opinion you have given him a really great gift.

you all in my prayers, lucks for whatever you will figure out! I absolutely feel your frustration, they can't speak, you can't scold. I'm curious if leila have stopped..

(((gentle hug)))

(p.s. amelia and brock hasn't come back at all)..

Everyone has their breaking point. To keep us sane, sometimes we need to think of ourselves over others. And putting Mouser in the cat run is certainly NOT an inhumane thing to do. It will soon become his HOME and he will still have the beneifts of both of you visiting.

Good luck with Leila.

Fingers crossed and good thoughts being sent to all that have even THOUGHT about spraying in your house! That is a defintie No-No!

Hope the no pee trend continues!

He may eventually outgrow that or something clicks in his head and he stops on his own where you can let him back inside. Putting him outside in a safe cat run is a lot better than what some people do with a cat that has a problem like that.. I have to commend you for caring enough not to toss him out on the streets.
