Seems like I recall sugar and borax powder, mixed together, in little jar
lids under the sink etc.. The roaches are drawn to the sugar, but the
borax gets them. Anybody know about this one?

Just wondering if anyone has any good ideas on roach prevention/control
that's safe for kitties.
I'm pretty upset--i have a roach phobia. Never saw one all the years I
lived in the UK. And I've never seen one in the 9 years I've been in this
place. But I had plenty in the last Chicago place i lived in, and I was in
a permanent state of anxiety about it.
TODAY I got word that our sister building next door spotted one in the
hallway this morning. Two buildings in the street were demolished a couple
of weeks or so ago so we figure it disturbed them.
I've been told boric acid is the thing to get. But is it safe for pets?
(This crappy computer is hopeless for net research.)
I really really don't want roaches--I've had 9 peaceful years without them!
And, I don't believe cats keep them away. Pity!
Thanks for any ideas.
Kerry

Barbara, My Fantasia had Felv since 1999 and I have eight other cats and
I never keep them away from each other. They ate together and drank water
out of the same bowls. Played together. All I did was get them tested and
made sure they got there vaccines or titer tests. Hope you decide to keep
him and let him show you how much he his greatful. Good luck

I wonder if I would be doing the wrong thing by keeping him when I have 4
non-positive ones that are being exposed. By then are they really being
exposed since we don't know that much about felv?
Barbara,
Seems to me that you just answered your own question.
I've been following Tom's story since your first post.
I'm a firm believer that it's a cat that "chooses" his person, NOT the
person choosing a cat.
Seems to me that Tom has chosen you, right from the very start!
I think you know, deep in your heart what is best for Tom, and you!
Hugs,
Patti
