My cat needs a new home

[trtls.livejournal.com]

Hi again,

We are looking for a home for our 8-year-old male cat.

We've added children to our home in the last 2 years and he's super child friendly -- but he really, really needs more attention than we can give him. He would do best in a household without children and would do fine with other animals as we've had other cats most of the time we've had him.

The problem we are having is peeing outside the litter box. The problem he is having is that he's just not happy. I can't promise he won't ever do it under perfect circumstances, but he definitely started doing this when our daughter was born and his world got turned upside down. All cat supplies we have can come with him; litter box, some litter, some food and treats. If you or anyone you know is interested, please email me at karen@mkmiller.org .

ay ay ay, i had a similar problem with my cat (peeing everywhere! on my bed! on my couch! on my roommate's beds!) when i first moved to boston from New York. if you are hoping to keep your cat, i strongly encourage you to look into FeliWay. it is seriously incredible. it's a plug-in thing that releases feline pheremones into the air, calming the cat down. my cat IMMEDIATELY stopped peeing on things & stopped walking around, howling like she was dying. it basically works like airborne kitty prozac.

if you do not want to keep your cat, i really hope you find a good home for it. i would love to take him, but i have two FurKids already, and it's almost impossible to keep up with the pet hair tumbleweeds as it is. if you don't find anyone via livejournal, look into Buddy Dog Humane Society. they always had really awesome folks there (when i was looking for a dog), and they have a ton of people there to play with & take care of the animals.

also, craigslist was where i found my dog. i couldn't be happier with him. :)

oh! if you are looking for the best product to get rid of cat pee stains & smell, go buy Nature's Miracle. you can find it at Petsmart, it comes in a big white bottle with red lettering. seriously, all the smell & stains came out of my futon, it's incredible.

good luck. i hope you find a good home for him.

(also, this is weird, but i'm the heather you called for a reference for chistina today. ha!)

Small world! Thanks for the tips. I think we found a good home for him. I'll pass on the info about FeliWay just in case.......
