She's got some kind of fixation with soft plastics and has gone through extension cords, Christmas lights, the plastic ends on the arms of my glasses (now held together with scotch tape).<BR/><BR/>I use Grannick's Bitter Apple on everything now--pre-emptively so that she won't chew things in the night and destroy them. Works like a charm.<BR/><BR/>Best of luck with your furry monsters.Prof. Poirothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10692220552576961642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366909960546184927.post-56140932620336740912008-10-18T11:39:00.000-07:002008-10-18T11:39:00.000-07:00Have you thought about finding your animals a new ...Have you thought about finding your animals a new home? Their acting out suggests they are unhappy in their current home. Or maybe you and them should visit an animal communicator. Perhaps they are trying to tell you something, but you just do not understand.orthohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475048083814392914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366909960546184927.post-91651735770087835592008-10-18T07:29:00.000-07:002008-10-18T07:29:00.000-07:00Is it too late to get a puppy?

And they're always ready to take you for a walk or play, especially if you happen to get wakened in the middle of the night by an evil cat.)Bardiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846065504793800266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366909960546184927.post-75321750931499413282008-10-17T06:59:00.000-07:002008-10-17T06:59:00.000-07:00How did my cat get all the way over there into you...How did my cat get all the way over there into your apartment???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366909960546184927.post-50965432762816963602008-10-17T05:46:00.000-07:002008-10-17T05:46:00.000-07:00I am being held hostage by my younger cat, who ins...I am being held hostage by my younger cat, who insists that I mention that sometimes cats 'misbehave' (although she is adamantly opposed to that idea) to get the attention of a neglectful human. She wants me to tell you that it might be a sign of poor health.<BR/><BR/>She also sends her congratulations to Sisyphus for the ideas.<BR/><BR/>(as the lowly human servant of said cat, I totally understand the problem, but I daren't say that out loud.)Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10849272391043604637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7366909960546184927.post-76605431429579260552008-10-17T05:04:00.000-07:002008-10-17T05:04:00.000-07:00Dear Cat of Sisyphus,I have heard of your reign of...Dear Cat of Sisyphus,<BR/>I have heard of your reign of terror, and I applaud you. While it is true that I have never taken to chewing cords, I applaud your inventiveness. Of late, I have enjoyed ripping books to shreds under the cover of darkness, so I am a compatriot of yours.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes,<BR/>The Man-Kitty.
