Drugged Cats!

[aelfgifu]

I had been having issues with Pip expressing his extreme displeasure with sharing the house with another cat and a dog by targeting Hank's clothes for some "special attentions". In response to this, the vet had me put him on ati-depressants. In addition to this, we purchased a little doodad that plugs into the wall like an air freshener and dispenses good cat pheromones. We have had it plugged in for a few days now and both cats are sitting like lumps on the char next to the outlet where it is plugged in, moving only to eat and go to the bathroom. OMG it is weird. It is un-natural. But they are not going to the bathroom on Hanks clothes... Pip isn't even sleeping on the bed anymore - this is obviously not a permanent solution. Or I need another one for the bedroom too.

I am planig on at least getting one more feliway for the bedroom. And hopefully weaning Pip off after a few months, since the re-fills are still ~$20 each. Our other cat, Theophilus, is naturally VERY laid back, and is practically comatose these days. It is amazing to see them actually sitting on the same chair though.

Thanks for the name. Evidently they sell a spray that works too. Perhaps without the Too Happy effects.

Sadly they don't sell anything to calm dogs down. I think I will be forced to setup an agility course in the backyard and run The Dog Rasputin through it over and over again until she falls over :p
