Sorry if you've received the message below in bits and parts...my news
server has been screwed up for a while.  Below follows my post IN FULL
so please read if you care to respond...thanks!!!

Hello all!!

I've read most, if not all, of the recent posts regarding spraying and
have digested the information about Felliway and behavioral modification
drug use, however, all the suggestions seem to involve male cats.

Well, I have a 6-year old FEMALE sprayer!!!  Lucky us!!  :-))  I was
wondering if anyone might have some *female*-cat-specific suggestions,
similar situations or success stories they could share??!!  Any other
suggestions besides what I've read??  Perhaps *female* spraying issues
might have suggestions other than what I've recently read.

THANKS for your time!!  Let me give some background if I could...

I have 4 cats, ALL female.   Two oldest ones are sisters (same litter,
age  6 1/2).  Those two moved with my girlfriend and I from NJ to FL in
August 2000.  While in Florida, we got our third cat who is now 3 1/2
and then our fourth cat who is now 2 1/2.  After all the new-smell
introductions, hissing and dominance indications, everyone really gets
along well.  We often wake up with all four on the bed!!  Anyway, all
are spayed and healthy.

Our move from NJ to FL in August 2000 was to an apartment for a year
where there was NO spraying.  Our second move from the apartment to a
townhouse was when the spraying started in December 2001.  We took her
to the vet and it does NOT seem to be a medical problem but more
behavorial.  Also doesn't seem to have to do with a litter box problem
either as she tends to spray *targets*--an empty box, mat, jacket
mistakenly left on the floor, papers on a table.  We think the problem
stems from a combination of (1) looooong introduction of our fourth cat
to the house and (2) the fact that the previous owners had a cat in the
town house.  The fourth cat was quarantined for a good few months in her
own bedroom prior to being introduced to the rest of the cats and we
think that such a long time went by without the older cat knowing the
source of the "new smell" in the house that she started marking
territory as a dominance move and never really kicked the habit.  Also,
I think the prior-owner's cat smells were still in the house and might
have been a bit threatening, especially coupled with the 4th cat  :-((

We've been in our CURRENT house since August 2002.  The new home is VERY
clean from a human standpoint but I know they owned 3 long-haireds (and
a puppy for about a month).

We've tried reprimand and Felliway previously (when the problem was
first noticed in Dec 2001) and, for the past few months have been using
"Clomicalm" (aka Clomipramine...more often used with dogs but used with
cats as well!)  The first suggested dose of Clomicalm stopped the
spraying but really basically KNOCKED her out :-(  So we gradually
lowered the dose to what controlled the spraying but made her more
"normal".

We had hoped to ween her off the Clomicalm TOTALLY but, when we did,
spraying started again so we put her back on the low dose that was
working.  Now, however, it seems she might be getting either "used to"
the medication or, as the Vet has indicated, used to the FEELING of the
medication in that she realizes, "Oh this is how I feel normally (on my
medication) so, not that I'm used to it, I'll start spraying again!!"  
Wish I could talk cat to see what her problem is!!! :-))

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone might have some *female*-cat-specific
suggestions, similar situations or success stories they could share??!!  
Any other suggestions besides what I've read??  Vet suggested upping the
dose of climicalm for the next couple weeks to see if that controls the
spraying again so that's where we're at.

Thanks again for reading!!

"I ordered from Jerry a long time ago.. He was helpful and

I "had" a very aggressive female Pit.. She was showing
aggression not only towards Dok, Rhodesian Ridgeback,
but our cats and even us.

She now plays with Dok, even to the point of allowing him to
take a toy or bone from her. She no longer shows any
aggression towards us. She is showing some aggression
towards the cats but that is down to a warning growl.

It is not just my opinion that all this aggression existed
before Doggie Do Right as we were advised by three vets to
euthanize her.

Hi Jerry,

I wrote to you a week or so ago about the unit.  I have since
borrowed one from Elaine Mc Clung.  She speaks very
highly of it.

So, I brought it home and plugged it in.  Of course, I
wanted it to come on, all the barking stop, and have every
one immediately fall to the floor in little comas for a few
hours.  Well, after I got all 27 of them to be quiet, still no
comas.  But, it had only been 36 seconds at that point.  So,
I gave it a little longer.  Still no comas.  Was this really
going to work?  I mean, I do have an unusual situation.

So, by bedtime, a few hours later.  I started to notice just
how many were asleep already - with their feet in the air!  I
started to have hope. During the night, all was calm.  In the
morning when I got up, only a few of them WALKED quietly
to the door to go out.  Not the usual evacuation.

I had the unit from Sunday afternoon until Tuesday
Morning.  I was certainly pleased with the night effect.  I
wasn't so sure about the amount of the day time effect.
Until I took it back.  Within half an hour, the monsters had
resurfaced.  I wondered if I could break into Elaine's house
and if she would notice :)

I know another person who does dog rescue.  She rescues
Beagles.  She has 23 in an 1100 square foot house.  God
bless her.  She is interested to see if it will work for her.  I
also spoke to someone else who does cat rescue, and
she is interested.  The cat rescue people have monthly
meetings.  Maybe Elaine could give a word or two about it.

So, if there are any words of advice you can send my way
about the best way to use it in my case, I would appreciate
it.  I of course wanted to keep it on the highest setting, but
don't know if that is advised, even with my situation of so
many new ones coming and (too few) going.

Also, how I and others can go about getting one, etc.  I
think the vets should have the info in their offices.  It must
help dogs with separation anxiety.  My vet practices
homeopathic as well as traditional medicine, so I
would think it would be right up her alley.

Hi Jerry, (update 10/31/00)

Teddy, my friend, with the very alpha male Siamese cat
reports all is well. She has been running DDR for well
over a week now and JR has not beaten up on any of
the other cats. Gillie the smallest female cat was living
in the bathroom and JR was attacking her every day.

Teddy forgot to close the bathroom door the second day
she had the DDR and came home to good news "no hair
all over the room." Now she is leaving the bathroom
door open all the time and JR has not attacked Gillie.

Gillie used to be able to sleep with Teddy on the bed but
JR got soooo....bad he would almost maul her if she came
into the bedroom. Teddy told me that yesterday Gillie came
into the bedroom and JR just looked at her and ignored her.

Teddy is so grateful as she was considering putting JR
outside or having him euthanized. Will update you in
another week or so.

Thanks, Elaine

Doggy Do Right and Jerry Howe

I just recently looked at this newsgroup and I found it
incredible. I do have a Doggy Do Right and have had it for
about one year. It truly does work - at least on my Dobe,
Chelsea. Chelsea was the unhappy recipient of several
failed attempts at obedience training, both in a "class"
environment and with a personal trainer. She is very high
spirited and strong and, unfortunately, spoiled, since we are
an older couple who doted on our dog. We were lucky
enough to find Jerry Howe and to not only buy a Doggy Do
Right, but to also have him personally work with Chelsea.

His methods are wonderful and effective. Chelsea is not a
dog that you will bully, and I wouldn't dream of hurting her.
After Jerry spent time with her, she no longer jumped on
furniture, ate food off the counter, pulled me incessantly on
the leash. She is calmer and we are all happier. Well, it is a
very long story and I won't bore you with all the details, but
suffice it to say that Jerry Howe saved the day for our dog
and for us.

Marge Hoffman

P.S. You can send me the reward money, but I won't sell
you my DDR!

Hi Jerry,

Well, we have been running Doggy Do Right for awhile (3
weeks) now and would appear that it is working. We are still
on the lowest setting but my cat aggressive dog is now
much calmer with the little fur balls getting near her. Not
perfect but much improved! I do think that you need a more
universal name as it appears to have drastically cut the
spraying problem down that we have with our crowded cat
situation. I am going to send an e-mail to Domesti-Cats
club, Feral Cat Network and Space Cats Club as a lot of the
members have some of the same problems with their cats.
It has also lessened the number of nightly cat fights.

Thanks, Elaine

Hi,
Lowest setting to us is when the machine is on the least
number of times during the day. We are going to try  putting
it on the next setting and see if that will completely solve our
problems. We are holding our breath at this point on the
spraying and hoping that BIOSOUND continues to work.
Will let you know. Yes, feel free to use my post. If you sell to
people with cat spray problems though you might want to
recommend that they do what we did.

We went through the house with BacTerminator an enzyme
product that eats the cat urine. We have used Bac T. for a
long time and it usually only slows them down for a week or
two, so I know it is the BIOSOUND that has created the
success we are seeing right now. We were resigned to
constant cleaning and even then it was difficult to keep up
with. I don't know if you have forgotten but we have 19 cats.

Elaine.

"It is NO WONDER that the marked changes in
deviant behavior of children can be achieved
through brief, simple educative routines with
their mothers which modify the mother's social
behaviors shaping the child (Whaler, 1966). Some
clinics have reported ELIMINATION ofthe need for
child THERAPY through changing the clinical emphasis
from clinical to parental HANDLING of the child
(Szrynski 1965).

A large number of cases improved sufficiently after
preliminary contact with parents that NO treatment
of children was required, and almost ALL cases
SHOWE a remarkably shortened period for therapy.
Quite severe cases of anorexia nervosa have been
treated in own to five months by simply REPLACING
the parents temporarily with EFFUSIVELY LOVING
SUBSTITUTES (Groen, 1966)."

Maybe the move caused the spraying but that's

Subject: Clomicalm for cats??

For background information, we have a female--yes *FEMALE*--sprayer!!

She seemed to develop aggressive tendencies toward our youngest cat
back
in October 2001 when we got the young one.  The spraying seems to be a
marking-of-territory behaviour which we have desperately tried shaking
her of for over a year and a half with no success!!  We even moved into

a home twice as big as our previous home (not just because of the cat!!

LOL!) and she still marks certain areas.

Anyway, after many, many, many behavior modifaction attempts (love,
scolding, litterbox setups, training, crying, smelling (ack!), washing,

drying, cleaning, wash, rinse, repeat...you name it!!), we are leaning
towards this form of "Kitty Prozac" (I know...it's Clomipramine, not
fluoxetine/Prozac).

Any news?  Any info?  Any successes?  Any problems??

Thanks!

Can't say as I know much about your situation; the product "Feliway" (is
that what you're referring to?) is often used when dealing with an
emotionally disturbed cat.  IMHO while it may be a useful product it's
only a temporary thing and if there's a root cause it should be dealt
with there.

There's nothing particularly strange about a female cat spraying, though
it's not near as common as males.

Only thing that I've noticed that works (worked enough to to stop 2
intact males spraying as well as a female) is to get them in the act and
distract them; when that tail starts the twitch, yell or spook them so
they forget what they were doing.  Eventually they fall out of the habit
 or it sinks in that you object to it.

They don't spray and I wasn't addressing you.  BAD PUPPY.

If you don't know enough about cats to know that the behavioural markers
indicated by spraying and urinating are *very* different then stay the
f.ck out of the conversation.  BAD PUPPY.

If you research my posts from several years ago you may come across the
reason the female was spraying; the males were spraying because they
were males.  If you do more research you will find the time and effort I
put into weaning them off that habit.

<snip>
> AnyWON who'd hit a kitty kat to teach it MANNERS

Why would I hit a cat to teach it manners ? BAD PUPPY.

Double isn't necessary.  Just stop pissing me off.

Then I'm glad my "critters" don't have that problem.  And just think how
glad I am to get the approval of an obviously mentally stable person
such as yourself.

> Have you ever seen a "EMOTIONALLY DISTURBED" kat in the wild?

A stray feral (not mine) would wander through my brother's house then go
straight out the back door.  Nothing that was tried (including reverse
psychology) to get it to stay, worked; eventually it froze to death
sitting on the fence outside one very cold winters night.  Very sad.  I
could postulate that the cat had been abused at it's former residence,
but I don't know.

>>>IMHO while it may be a useful product it's
>>>only a temporary thing and if there's a root

>
> You mean, like physically and emotinally ABUSING your critters.

Yes, the root cause is *sometimes* people who don't know how to get
along with their critters properly; in the domestic cat world that
includes people who hit their cats, people who have their cats declawed
and a long list of things some of which are due to ignorance and some
are due to willful abuse.

And sometimes it has nothing to do with the owner or as I've stated is
due to ignorance.

That's why I said "root cause".

OTOH, why did you say "abuse" ?

If you're saying that female cats won't spray then you really don't know
sh.t about cats.

I do ? are you claiming to be psychic ?, maybe you should be "the
amazing people wizard" instead of "wizard pussy" or whatever you're
calling yourself today.

Intimidation *does* work on cats.  If what you want the cat to do
doesn't make sense to the cat then it's the *only* thing that will work,
to the best of my knowledge.  Of course you have to convince the cat to
act intimidated which may not be easy.

Punishment OTOH only fosters resentment.

> At least you're not in favor of declawing unless it's necessary.

I'm not in favour of declawing at all and have never posted that even in
jest.  I think in order to make that statement you would not only have
to take portions of a post out of context of both the post and thread as
you've done, but start snipping words out of sentences.

I'm not even in favour of trimming a cats nails unless they're broken
(which happens with outdoor cats or a poor diet) or ingrown (which I've
never personally seen).

>>> when that tail starts the twitch, yell or
>>>spook them so they forget what they were doing.

NO. BAD PUPPY.

...unless you're under the impression I mean scream at them for 10
minutes, in which case you aren't that psychic are you; a sharp "HEY!"
or something is all that's required.  You don't even have to threaten;
just temporarily distract.

That, AFAICT isn't even loosely related to what I said.  Care to
elaborate ?  I can sortof see a string of logic based on your obvious
lack of knowledge of cats, but frankly even if you can manage to spell
and type plain English, IMHO you should still explain what you mean to
avoid coming across as a lunatic.

<snip commercial advertising>

Cats aren't dogs, Puppy; there is a divergence point beyond which
applying dog-training methods doesn't work as well.  You're welcome to
get a cat of your own and try it though; probably won't hurt the cat...
confuse it maybe.

who have temperament and behavior problems. It's

Odd, I thought I had read from some of the dog-groups posters that you
occasionally made some sense or something to that effect.

So here's your chance

(This has never happened to me, btw)

A cat has for no reason whatsoever (that you can discern) just sunk it's
teeth into your arm.  You have 4 .5" fangs buried to the hilt, two on
the top, two on the bottom and assorted quarter inch teeth as well.

So what do you do, oh great and magnificent one ?

I'm sure you're full of sh.t as far as I'm concerned; are you full of
sh.t as far as *you're* concerned ?

You claim to give help when asked. I'm asking.

If you can't do that then, let's try an easier one... you do claim to be
a "Puppy Wizard"; same question but this time it's a pitbull.

?

OK, let's try the easiest one; let's make it multiple choice...

You give help to people on Usenet; some of them don't know anything
about the subject at hand, some of them have bad attitudes.  In order to
get them to "fly right" you...

a) call them names which makes them ignore you because you're a troll ?

b) accuse them of being responsible which causes some of them to have to
justify any bad behaviour ?

c) Keep their attention and make suggestions that hopefully the more
prideful ones can manage without any "loss of face".

Still can't do it ?

Here's a quote

"Forensic sciences" is as "Forensic Sciences" does; calling something
something it's not does not make it so.  But if you have a title which
includes rational discourse, use it.

I take it you view yourself as a policeman ?

You mean I've never hit a cat ? I have, once: it decided I was territory
that should be marked, I disagreed.  And I would still happily smack a
cat that is injuring me.

Though (since I do actually think about things) if I think of it I might
try the "sound like a cat in pain"... or submerge my arm in a bathtub
full of water if I have one nearby to get the cat to let go.

If whoever had that gun could've discerned the reason behind the cat's
"attack" then that cat might still be alive.  Still think reason is
irrelevant ?

Animals generally don't scare me.  And I respect them enough to call
them by their proper names; "cats" not "kats"; are you German (katz) or
trying to pretend that pets are cartoon animals.

I "intimidate" my cats on a daily basis.  It sends a clear signal.
Since they know I won't hurt them they choose whether or not to respond.
 I'm usually successful at getting them out of the kitchen but
unsuccessful in getting them to get off the couch.  Go figure.

no, they aren't.  In several of your posts you've made statements (apart
from the personal attacks) regarding cats that could cause injury to the
cats; for instance mistaking improper urination for scent marking may
mean that your cat dies of an UTI.

I'm not; I've got a cat, a pitbull and apparently children stuck to my
arm draining the blood out of me.  At least I don't take leeches as pets.

I'm now out of blood.  I die.  The cat, pitbull and children eat
heartily for a few days.  Eventually the cat hops the fence, the pitbull
eats some of the children; some more of the children grab the family
jewels intending to hock them but are mugged by another gang of kids;
the rest open the gate and get away and are now on the streets with
nobody to support them.  The pitbull gets shot by a cop because it's a
pitbull.

Yeah, real good job.  Thanks for the help.

They murdered the kat several days AFTER the attack.
The REASON the kat attacked was cause he was WITHOLDING
BRIBES and WOULDN'T GIVE IT UP when the kat got PISSED.

INDEEDY. NO CRITTER (baring a brain tumor or rabies)
attack ANY critter UNLESS HE'S AFRAID.

Let's talk about FEAR, RPL. That's what this is all
about, RPL. I got the same fears anyWON else got,

We're the same same, only opposite, because
I couldn't get away with using "corrections"
on the giant breed dogs I work with because
it's too dangerous. Ask Siggy an Roy. They
got what was PREDICTABLE and PREDICTED by
offering and witholding bribes. We've got
a half dozen posters right here who've had
their critters turn on them or their house
guests for offering them bribes "just to
make friends" as charlie sez who KNEW BETTER
than to do that because it SEZ SO in my free
manual but he thought it was O.K. because jean
donaldson sez to bribe dogs and that makes
SENSE to certiain personalities, RPL.

I was taught at age 5 not to bribe the dog
to go out to play because that would be
entrapment and would sour her on playing,
that's what grandpa taught me. Treats are
fine for pleasure but not for CONTROLL
because it can cause persistent aggression.

Absolutely not. Long ago I had a very delicate
Chihuahua who was afraid of kids and I couldn't
use any force on him or he'd become more afraid.

aggressive Great Dane with a history of eatin
professional trainers I tried REALLY REALLY
HARD not to correct him any harder than that
little Chihuahua and that seemed to work just
as well because you CAN'T FORCE ANY CRITTER
and expect him to naturally want to do anything
you ask

And that's why installing commands as conditional
reflexes will come in handy because we don't have
to force to get a critter do go around in circles
if we so desire. Goin straight may take fifteen
minutes... but that's because the distraction of
being asked to come and go or turn left and right
keeps them focused. Kinda opposite of how you'd
think of being focused, ain't it??? Nice stuff.

> for instance mistaking improper urination

There AIN'T NO SUCH THING unless the cat is SICK.
Housebreaking is INSTINCTIVE. The only thing more
unnatural than a housebreaking mistake is opposite
sex aggression and we see PLENTY of that here. The
dog lovers almost all have opposite sex aggressive
dogs because ALL AGGRESSION IS FEAR and ALL FEAR
is CAUSED BY MISHANDLING.

> for scent marking may mean that your cat dies of an UTI.

NOT when we can CURE "marking" in WON DAY, RPL.
My methods work FASTER than you could get a vet
appointment and IF THEY WORK then YOU DON'T NEED
the vet because BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION CANNOT CURE
a REAL ILLNESS, only psychosomatic symptoms, like
SPRAYING, BITING, SEPARATION ANXIETY, SELF MUTILATION,
just the NORMAL STUFF which comprises 90% of all
veteriary care and treatment, RPL.

> > Looks like you're havin a HEALING DAY, eh rpl?

Me too. You can see my spelling and upper cases
have almost completely healed already, thanks to
your efforts.

> I'm not;

You ARE, like it or not. You're TALKIN. That means
you're THINKIN and IF YOU'RE THINKIN then we only
got WON PROBLEM to deal with, and that's your FEARS,
or shall we say your / our HUMAN NATURE. Same same
as mine, only different, opposite.

>  I've got a cat,

I've had many kats.

> a pitbull

I've only had WON pitbull X but I've trained
many. One customer of the kennel had four dogs
whom three of them were left with the housekeeper
when they went on vacation but his Pit Bull was
an escape artist and he couldn't trust him there
and he couldn't trust him boarded at the kennel
either because like I said, he was an escape
ARTIST and would climb fences or chew through them.

We put him in a run and worked the techniques
on him every time he looked at the door or
fence or roof and in a less than five minutes
he learned he had no desire to challenge the
fence and picked his spot and layed down and
relaxed because I distracted and praised every
thought he had about escaping.

You can do THAT with those cats who cry and
screech at the other cats outside. Same same
for racing through or screaming in the house
in the middle of the night.

> and apparently children stuck to my
> arm draining the blood out of me.

Kids'll do that to ya, little bloodsuckers they are.

Then I'd highly suggest you let the Pit Bull have the
arm. JUST LIKE how Steve Irwin The Crock Hunter done
when he got bit by that gator. Had he REACTED in FEAR
or by REFLEX he'd of got spun into the drink and swallowed
for breakfast. But he DIDN'T because HE TRAINED HIMSELF
not to REFLEX when he gets bit, just like I do and that
ALWAYS STOPS the attack because ANIMALS DO NOT ATTACK
unless they're AFRAID or HUNGRY and fixin to EAT YOU.

That gator wasn't HUNGRY enough to want to EAT HIM
he was just defending himself from Steve's advances.

Perhaps they can be fun to talk to, like fishes?

I've posted to a few of the kids groups and
get pretty much THE SAME SAME reaction as I
get from the animal lovers. It's ALL the same.
I'll look into alt.children and see what it
looks like.

Pretty much, RPL. My manual trains parents to
get the same same results with their kids as
they do with their dogs kats birdies goats and
horses using THE SAME SAME SAME SAME METHODS, RPL.

Unconditional love trust and respect works
on ALL critters, and if that takes time, no
problem, we got CONDITIONAL REFLEX to instill
100% TOTAL NON PHYSICAL CON-TROLL, RPL. Using
these methods you can move a critter around to
any square you'd like on a checkerboard floor.

THINK ABOUT IT, RPL. If you're YELLIN that's INTENDED
to SCARE and INTIMDIATE, not TEACH PRUDENCE. "Teaching
PRUDENCE" would be using the METHODS I TEACH for FREE
to teach the critter to NOT REFLEX to HIS FEARS just
like how Steve Irwin does when he gets attacked (which
BTW is A LOT more often than I'd get bit doin his work).

It's EZ! You just gotta follow the method.

> Do you mean "kats" as in "katsenjammer(sp?) kids" ?

O.K., RPL. I'll conceed and call them CATS if
that'll keep you talkin honest and rational, RPL.

>  I'm not familiar with the series beyond the name.

It's an old newpaper cartoon series. Got nuthin to
do with CATS though as I recall but I was never a
big fan of that column.

> >> a) call them names which makes them ignore you
> >> because you're a troll ?

You're obviously no student of HISTORY, RPL. The
DOG LOVERS warn folks not to BELIEVE my Students
REPORTS. They call them LIES and FORGERIES, RPL.

That's why I had to DISCREDIT them by QUOTING
THEIR LIES and ANIMAL ABUSES, RPL. And they
DENY their own written words. What's that tell you?

> > You're right. Only UNCONDITIONAL LOVE TRUST
> > and RESPECT can CURE MENTAL ILLNESS and FEAR
> > AGGRESSION, rpl.

But FIRST, I HAD TO DISCREDIT EVERY EXPERT IN THE BUSINESS.

And now that we've done that it's on with
teachin folks how to do likeWIZE.

Not WIZE, RPL. I don't rely on LUCK. "Luck is for SUCKERS,"

Yeah. I find myself reading my own posts sometimes
two or three times AFTER I've posted them. Took
professor dermer under twenty minutes to a post that
took me sixteen minutes to read and I'd just written
it a half hour pryor.

Here's professor dermer pryor:

Naah, I haven't been trying to be abusive to you, RPL,
it's just the subject matter which arouses us:
