Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2004Bad Issa!!!
Yesterday Issa did something I'd never experienced before. We were reading the paper in the morning, and I saw him standing by the fireplace looking at us. His tail was straight up and I noticed it shaking in a very unusual fashion. I got close, and sure enough, he had sprayed the fireplace! He's never done that before! He's about 4 years old and was neutered at 6 months. We quickly cleaned it with enzymatic solution and sprayed the area with Feliway. I just hope it's an isolated incident. Where did he get the idea? Why did he do it?  SignatureVictor Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam here: uce@ftc.gov Email me here: pistorLITTER@BOXaustin.rr.com Was he putting out a fire?

Where did he get the idea? Why did he do it? To gain your attention ? :^) <g> Victor, A few years ago we had a Siamese cat called Castor. Once, when one of my husband's friends was visiting us, we think Castor decided to let us know that this chap had stayed longer than he ought to. Castor walked up to the radiator nearest to the chair upon which this chap was sitting, turned his bottom to face it and sprayed while looking directly at us. Immediately afterwards, he strolled off. My husband's friend looked uncomfortable and shortly afterwards decided it was time he went home :^) Sheenah >> Yesterday Issa did something I'd never experienced before.

They don't "sneak" like a lot of non-cat people seem to think-- they do it right in your face. I had to give up my furniture with tiny Mimi (RB) because she thought that every way I had to trying to get her stop scratching it was some kind of game, which she enjoyed-- and she would do it to get a reaction out of me. She would stroll up to the sofa arm, or whatever, and start taking these long, luxurious scratches, looking straight at me, saying, "HEY! Check this out! Whatcha gonna do, chase me? Spritz me? Bring it on! :P" Theresa alt.tv.frasier FAQ: http://www.im-listening.net/FAQ/ Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful.

MOM had a *function* to which she had to invite rather obnoxious loud mouthed diplomats wife. The woman was wearing a very heavy skirt. HRFL took a real dislike to the woman as she had the audacity to turf him off his chair so that he could sit on it. He sprayed her, he sprayed her skirt and he sprayed her purse. then he stalked off with a "f*ck you!" flick of his tail. It's likely to be a one-off point proving exercise from Issa, so i wouldn't worry too much.

You gotta love how they express their imperial opinions. :-) I once was owned by a *spayed female* who sprayed.

Where did he get the idea? Why did he do it? Could he be covering up an objectionable odor; maybe birds or squirrels in the chimney? Or smelling a tomcat outside and wanting to mark his own territory? -- CATherine > Could he be covering up an objectionable odor; maybe birds or > squirrels in the chimney? Or smelling a tomcat outside and wanting to > mark his own territory? That's what Tom said. There's a stray (not sure about stray, s/he's pretty plump, but no collar, very skittish) that likes to hang out on our roof. That might be it... I'm going to close the little door thinguie on the chimney, see if that helps. Thanks!
