    Default I am livid and gonna make myself a STIFF drink before bed.

    I'm a cat lover, have been for 55 years, but I'm thinking really naughty thoughts about one right now.

    One of our cats peed in my box of denim quilt squares for my "All Machines Quilt". I think I caught her just after the fact and let her have it. She got a half glass of ice water thrown at her along with some of the violated squares.
    My wife is trying to hand wash the pieces but I'm about to throw the whole damn thing in the trash and forget it.

    Got to calm down or I'll not get any sleep.

    ARRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I'd like to murdleize that feline!!!

    Let the squares soak overnight in white vinegar/oxyclean

    If it is fresh pee, it will wash right out. Your wife must love you and the cat. Enjoy the stiff drink anyway.

    White vinegar does work we had a cat that had a bladder issue before we had to have her put down. If cat has never done this before the cat may have a urinary infection that is what the vet told us. I know it is frustrating before we new what the problem was and got her on meds she peed on my king size quilt 3 or 4 times in 2 weeks was no fun going to the launderymate in order to wash. Have a good drink it will be okay

    There is a possibility this kitty has a bladder infection. She is a polydactyl (24 toes) and about as weird a cat as you'll see.
    We haven't had the funds to get her spaid yet and her heats are prolonged and tortuous to her and us.

    I know what you mean about having to wash a big quilt. The one my wife made last year needs to go and we just haven't done it yet.

    Look for a free spay clinic at an animal shelter near you...we have them here several times a year. You can also check with a feline rescue organization in your area..they sometimes offer low cost/free spays to individuals; the only way to help control cat over populations.
    I'm with everyone else..probably an infection that won't cure itself. Once you have forgiven her you should post her pic.

    Am awake now. Slept all night. Got maybe 6 hours sleep all at once. Didn't do much good. Screaming headache due to past neck injuries. I may just cancel this day due to lack of interest.

    Here is a picture of Pollyanna:


    Thanks for the links. We have a very good vet that really cares and his prices are not bad. In the past 8 or so years we've had several kitties spaid and neutered at the free spay deals only to loose every one of them to some disease. We don't trust those around here any more.
    I'm not overly concerned with over populating of kitties we keep the two un-fixed ones in the house.
    We will get her to a vet as soon as we can.
