sharimcm 0 #1 January 9, 2007 I am a total sucker when it comes to cute, litty furry animals. I only have part-time custody of my basset mix due to her boredom problem. When she gets bored she chews... ANYWAYS, here's my dilemna. There is this really cute kitty that has made her way in to my heart. She is a feral cat that lives around my office. I have debated whether to take her home or not. She warms up to me easily where as all the guys she's a little shy around. So, should I take her home with me? I have no other warm-blooded animal keeping me warm at night. Yes, I have a leather couch... Yes, I love my footboard and headboard on my mahogany bed... ARGH!! She is driving me wild!

sharimcm 0 #3 January 9, 2007 Yes, but Turtle won't come live with me... I guess I *could* be his sugar momma, support him, love him, stroke him, lay him on his back and take advantage of him.... can Turtle make me this wild about him? The kitty is here... Right now... Meowing at me when she sees me... I've already gave her dinner for the night... I just want her to have a better life with someone who will take care of her.

If it doesn't come back, then simply find another animal to kick.

I think you should take her in. The way I trained my cats not to scratch was to squirt them with a spray bottle or squirt gun. They learned pretty quick. Also, make sure you have one or two good scratching posts in the house for her to scratch on. Rub some catnip on them to attrack her to them and praise her whenever she uses those instead of your furniture. If you need anymore advice feel free to PM me. I hope all goes well.

If I don't see her again today, the vet told me just to call back when I do have her and they'll fit me in.

I'll be picking her up Friday from the vet and she'll be coming home with me (without the kittens).
