    Oh they are so adorable. Thank you for that.

    She felt safe.

    Years ago my cat urinated on my chest in the middle of the night which woke me up. The urine contained blood.
    I took her to the vet and she said cats do that to attract attention when they are poorly.

    Hmmm...thank you Beevee. My older crazy female cat sprayed the couch last night and i kicked her out of the house.
    She kept coming back in and i kept chasing her out.
    I went ahead and let her sleep the night and today in the house.

    You posts tells me i should set her up for a vet visit.

    Chloe and I both thank you.
    Maybe there is something wrong besides her being psycho.
    This is not the time for guessing.
    Thank you again.
    That behavior was very unusual.

    There are hundreds of them on Rotnest Island in Perth/Freemantle harbor.
    You can take a boat out there.
    The Dutch who settled there called the island RAT NEST because they thought they were rats.
    So the name ROTNEST.

    ...and some people try and convince me animals don't have a soul.
    Not buying it one bit.
    if they can share their joy, then they have a soul.
