I'm sure this is a common problem. My cat, Butters starts meowing/clawing at the bedroom door at around 3AM and refuses to stop. I live in a tiny one bedroom apartment so there's nowhere else I can put him when he starts to act up. I've tried letting him in when he meows, but then he just attacks my feet. I've tried spraying him with water every time but now he is just trained to run away when the door opens. (Then goes right back when the door closes.) I've also tried those soft claws (the clawing keeps me awake more then meowing) but he just rips them off after a day. I just don't know what to do anymore. Please help!

Odd behavior following walks
Posted on 2008/03/05 by RolandAfter returning home from walks, Zoe acts oddly. As soon as she gets home, she takes a toy and carries it in her mouth while pacing frantically through the house for about 1 hour. This happens each time she goes for a walk. What does this behavior mean? Otherwise, she is playful, energetic, and affectionate.

Defecation changes
Posted on 2008/03/07 by UserWe have a 13 year old German shapard/Austraalian shepard mix and very recently (the last month) we have noticed a change in her defecation behavior. Previous she used to go on grass or the side of the road/sidewalk; but recently she will go in the middle of the sidewalk/road (like a horse). The vet said this is normal for a dog her age but it can be embarrassing because she has always had a delicate digestive system. Everything else is good for her age. She is arthritic (we give her ketoprofen). Any ideas?

Dog marking everywhere!
Posted on 2008/03/08 by NicoleEin will not stop urinating on EVERYTHING. He is obviously trying to mark his teritory. I've tried repremanding him (the classic rub his nose in it and a newspaper)however, he gets extremely violent. So I guess this is two questions: what can I do to stop him from marking and what can I do about is severely violent behavior? (by violent, I mean: severe lashing out, loud and violent growling and barking and worst of all biting...hard enough to break skin and leave scars.)

My cats are fighting!
Posted on 2008/03/08 by JohnsonMy healthy, neutered 6 year old males are currently engaged in an epic battle to esablish alpha status. This began a month ago, and I know the reasons behind it - house on the market, constant vaccuming, strangers coming and going and a stray that appeared out of no where and really set them off. These two otherwise completely docile, affectionate, LAID BACK, wonderful kitties are now spraying EVERYWHERE, and ripping each other to shreads. We tried the Feliway, and the squirt bottle, but it has become so bad that the vet finally put them on seditives, which don't seem to be helping at all. I'm tempted to put them in solitary, but as I said, with the house on the...

My cat cries!!!
Posted on 2008/03/10 by UserHello, I have a 3 year old cat that has recently (within the past few months) become quite a whiner. About a year ago we began closing our bedroom door so that he could not come in while we were sleeping. He was fine with it for awhile. Now, he sits outside of our door and cries all night and bangs on the door with his paws. When we do open it to see what he wants he runs and hides. I'm not sure why he has suddenly started doing this, we've tried numerous things like playing with him before bed to tire him out, ignoring him, waking up and giving him attention, etc. I need sleep!!! Please help!
