A couple of nights ago, a young skunk crept onto the porch to munch on the food I put out for the strays. I sat VERY quietly. It ate and left without spraying. The smell of cat pee can't compete with skunk. If it becomes a regular, I'll have to come up with a name. Just hope that a cat or a coon doesn't come along and startle it.

Eric, you are so right.
About a month ago we had to have our elderly dog Gizmo put to sleep(the vet thought he had a brain tumour) it was one of the hardest things to do...and it was the kindest thing for him, but not for us.....the selfish thing would have been to bring him home and let him have bigger and bigger fits which left him unhappy and disoriented.
I only have one elderly cat now...I miss Gizmo - even though he had turned into a grumpy old burger.
Anyway, I think some animals have better personalities(even at their grumpiest) than some humans.

I envy you your little family of critters!

Can you not stop the cat going into the living room. We had same prob with one of our cats so we now make sure he can't get into the living area. Try putting her litter tray into kitchen, and make sure she can't get out, she will learn eventually.

we have started shutting her out of the livingroom, her litter box has always been in the kitchen, i am beginning to wonder if this is the real reason why her previous owner gave her away
