LOL. Our Baby Mason does this! :) Only he prefers
plastic milk jug rings.
Late at night (or early in the morning, depending on
how you look at it) he walks through the entire house,
room to room, meowing to himself with this stupid ring
in his mouth. Neither are any of the other cats

I am so sorry that Lola is in such dire straits. You
are probably making the right decision about helping

This makes me very sick too. I had no idea how common this was - humans are the
cruelest beings to ever walk the planet. Is it any wonder we prefer the company
of our animals.
Bad toilet habits can be due to many things as we know - people should be
required to take a basic animal healthcare
Sherry,

Take the milk ring from him and roll it on the floor. My guess is he'll

Another hint for flavor compounding... Banana. I don't know why banana

some feathers attached to the end of a plastic stick.
He would bring it to me and I would throw it and he

Steph,
I like Hideyo's idea of the screen door. Could you put one on your
bedroom door? That way poor lonely Chief might not feel so isolated.
I'd also rig him a wonderful cozy bed right by the door. You'd be able
to talk to him through the screen door too. I understand not wanting
to alienate
Yep. I have a screen door everywhere in

something) they can

I've been running interference between these two since last December!
