I have 2 cats...a third has moved in (although he lives somewhere because he has a collar), a fourth I have to keep chasing off the top of my wardrobe and a fifth has been eating all the food. I'm completely clueless as to how to go about handling it. If I lock the cat flap, mine will be stuck either in or out, neither of which is good. <BR/><BR/>I'll be watching this space for ideas!Elaine Denninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10640829930815645105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408579395752156780.post-92174759039366918362008-02-26T11:47:00.000+00:002008-02-26T11:47:00.000+00:00Thanks for that JJ - I'll certainly try it!Thanks for that JJ - I'll certainly try it!Flowerpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14102679179201725732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408579395752156780.post-70001606987439262962008-02-26T11:11:00.000+00:002008-02-26T11:11:00.000+00:00Hi Flowerpot, I heard that bleach is absolutely th...Hi Flowerpot, I heard that bleach is absolutely the wrong thing to clean up with because it has ammonia in which Tom cat thinks is a competitor spraying - and then he sprays more. I was told to mix up a solution of washing powder in warm water (can't remember if bio or non-bio) to clean it down with which wouldn't encourage the vicious circle of the unwelcome little bugger pissing all over again. Hope it helps.<BR/>JJxJenny Beattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640209636605410939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408579395752156780.post-74004804528186043642008-02-26T10:13:00.000+00:002008-02-26T10:13:00.000+00:00Yes I think it is that one, RT, but when I came ho...Yes I think it is that one, RT, but when I came home the other day I saw two of them, almost identical, so not sure now!
