S.O.S. cat intimidating cat UPDATE

So poor Mollie peed the bed again this morning. This time because Manny was in the room and she is starting to feel intimidated by him.

As much as Brooks and Manny are coming out around my husband ( mostly me )and me. Mollie is getting more and more intimidated by Manny.


I am not sure what to do and I am getting more and more pissed off at the rescue we got them from.

Hubby is talking about one or both going ( as in Manny an Brooks.) and I am pissed that I haven't been able to make this work.

I am a firm believer of Forever Homes. I don't want to be a failure.

Help. I have tried to do the Jackson Galaxy method Hunt, Caught kill but again these cats don't play like normal cats.

( cross post in pet section.)

UPDATE: got the Feliway plug in and placed it in the bedroom. I also picked up calming chewables and got something to clean the mattress. We did mop it up and got a orange stain remover to get the smell out. I just hope the orange smell fades so the cats can get on.

Well, Lunch party for the family is done.

So here is the low-down. First off we are still unpacking so we spent a lot of time yesterday and this morning doing a rush clean and getting things sorted. While I was prepping food last night my brother-in-law was mounting a tv on the wall. He was at our place until 1:30 am. Hubby and I got to bed at 2 am I am up at 6:50am. Nervous because my mom can be...well, she likes speaking her mind and doesn't care who she hurts because in her mind she is always right. Also Sis calls to find out what I am serving because 15 year old niece is a 15 year old who is picky. Sister never heard of chicken salad made with walnuts celery and grapes. she is use to it being shredded not small pieces. So I make a small amount of egg salad incase I need to serve that.

So I'm freaking out because she will only see what is wrong with the house not the potential.

Well, hubby and I are rush cleaning/hiding boxes and I am getting ready to finish cooking. THEY come early. I said come for 12:30 thinking They eat and I show off the place. They show up about 11:50. I'm rushing to make the quiches. while they are cooking I am putting together the sandwiches and cutting veggie pizza, plating and whatever needs done.

Mom starts by critizing everything that is wrong with the place and I am ready to cry. then they start lookin around. Basically gave themselves the tour.

We ate. Sis only ate one sandwich but said it was good. They said they like everything. we talked for a while.

now I am exhausted. I think I will be going to bed now--OH wait. Game of thrones start--DAMN.

All in all glad it is done.

Quick Help please

I'm having a hosting a lunch for my sister and mom and nieces They are coming to see my new home.

I have cooked chicken already for chicken salad. I am going to make it tonight Mix it and then put it in the fridge over night. I will make the sliders tomorrow before then arrived. Or should I wait?

Also I am making that Veggie Pizza that everyone is making now at days. (the one with cream cheese and veggies) A friend told me it is okay to make it then put it in the fridge overnight that she does it all the time and she says it seems to make it taste better because it has time to meld (her word.) together. Has anyone done that?

I am making mini quiches tomorrow. I am thanks for any suggestions.

I already made my fruit salad and I will make a dozen chocolate chip cookies tonight.

Did I just hear Rachel Maddow correctly?

One tactic was to for Russia to a line itself with NRA members so it basically use that connection to gain support of republican party?

Well,poor little Mollie peed on the bed this morning.

Not her fault. Either my husband or I closed the door after going to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I woke up feeling something warm and wet on my Butt.

Thank gawd for mattress protector. Husband took Mollie and put her in a litter box incase she had to do more and I stripped the bed and myself threw everything in the washer and then jumped into the shower...


Things we shrug off for the love of our Furbabies.

Bravo, Rachel, beautifully done and said to Peter Smith's family.

She expressed her sympathy for their lost and the fact all this had to be so public.
