Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:01 pm   oh and they love the alpine scratch pad at the pet store... it is an incline board of just carboard. |
Nutsy | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:02 pm   LOL Grooch - well, if your kitty cat is anything like mine was, water is the ULTIMATE cat-freaker-outer! |
Kstme | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:05 pm   Moondance and Grooch...I found some liquid catnip at the petstore and it seems to be working for her scratching post...for now... You just spray it on and there's no mess! Isn't it odd how animals don't like the citrus scents, but our dog will eat an orange...lol |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:06 pm   a spray bottle is great too... just make sure they have an alternative outlet like the scratch pad or post! And again...do not let them see you spray them... you do not want to associate yourself with the water bottle |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:06 pm   I have that too Kstme...works GREAT |
Kstme | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:07 pm   Grooch...picture in my head...Grooch being flooded by cat using Super Shooter!  |

Kstme | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:10 pm   Grooch...have you thought about adopting another kitten? Sometimes a playmate helps...OR destroys your entire house... |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:10 pm   Liguid Gold - Catnip |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:11 pm   Kstme... I knew I liked you! |
Grooch | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:12 pm   I'd believe it, Kstme. She is one smart, evil cat. I wouldn't put anything past her. She hit another milestone in her life last night. She discovered the garbage can. From a sitting postion, she can leap right up and dive head first right into it. |
Grooch | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:13 pm   Hubby won't allow it. (But I'm going to get my pug. Whether he wants it or not. shhh....) |
Karuuna | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:15 pm   Grooch -- lol, my kitten does the same thing. A flying leap into the trash can, whereupon both trash can and kitten, and a lot of trash, go flying wildly about the room. Ending in a total mess, and one cranky Karuuna.  |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:18 pm   I have perfect cats |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:20 pm   G... my ideas about scratching etc... got archived... be sure to try them, one is bound to work. |
Karuuna | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:22 pm   Moon, are you just trying to make us feel like incompetent parents? My cats are in charge. They know it, and it scares me. |
Kstme | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:24 pm   Moon... Grooch...After much reading, I am coming to believe this kitten is NOT, and I repeat, NOT of a domestic variety! It sounds, to me, that one of the parents may have come from "V" and some of those tendencies could be from the "alien" parent! I am calling Rosewell, NM shortly...I will let you know what I can find out! The line is busy...you know, those aliens talk forever on the free long distance line!
 |
Grooch | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:26 pm   LOL! I think you may be right, Kstme. It would explain alot. Let me know what you find out.  |
Kstme | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:28 pm   Grooch...<sniff, sniff>...It's been confirmed...<sniff, sniff> Your cat was fathered by Marvin, The Martian!!! Sit, take a break...have a cold drink and we'll ALL help you deal! btw...what's kitty's name? |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:34 pm   Leave Daisy alone! There are NO bad animals just bad parents... <Moon RUNS for cover> Daisy made me say it! |
Grooch | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:35 pm   Marvin, the Martian, huh? It makes sense. Hubby is a cartoon freak. He will be happy with the news. Her name is Daisy. (Named after Daisy Duck, Donald's girlfriend.) There seems to be a whole cartoon theme here. |
Grooch | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:39 pm   See! She is evil! She is making Moon speak in tongues. I resent being called a bad parent. Hmmmppphhh!!!! I have slaved over that little bratty kitten. Given everything her little heart desires. And what do I get in return? Moon picking on me.
 |
Karuuna | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:43 pm   LOL, all of you! The only reason I got a kitten was to make me feel like a competent parent. My son certainly doesn't. Now my pets don't. It's a conspiracy I tell ya... where's Ewing when ya need him? |
Moondance | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 12:54 pm   I have a perfect little kitty right here next to me just looking at me adoringly and purring Hmmmm those kitty prozac drugs work GREAT! |
Kstme | Tuesday, October 02, 2001 - 01:06 pm   Grooch...remember...you NOW have an excuse! Martian parentage!! USE IT! Daisy...I like that! Song at the end of "2001" when the puter went nuts..."Daisy"..."Bicycle Built for Two"... Are we catching the connections? Hmmmm...Moondance...are your cats "truly" of this world? Oh, I see...they're sedated! LOL We have so many toys on the floor, it looks like we have small children! The dog collects his into a pile and the cat keeps throwing her stuff on top of it! |
