@laura536@LittleFae I could but the winters get evil. Plus he meows to come in to eat & such. Idont think that'd be a good idea for us but thanks. @Junebuggbabie85 ill check. Are they around me? I'm near Chicago.
THANKS TO YOU ALL FOR YOUR ADVICE & INFO!! I'LL KEEP TRYING BUT I MIGHT HAVE TO JUST LIE & SAY I FOUND HIM. IF ANYONE HAS ADVICE ON HOW TO LIE & WHAT TO SAY TO A SHELTER. SHOULD I CALL FIRST OR JUST GO IN? SHOULD I SAY OTHERS ARE PICKING ON HIM BECAUSE HE SEEMS SICKLY? THESE ARE MY IDEAS. THANKS AGAIN!
@lil_buggie_3 yea it looks like its my last resort. I'm sad to let him go. He's been with me & a friend if that makes sense. He talks to me....meows. ill miss him but I know he deserves better than I can give right now. I just hooe someone can give him the love & home that he needs. So u think I should just walk in with him? And drop him off to a shelter. I don't have to call first do I?
@little_buggie_3 aww I'm sure there's a lot of people & pets who appreciate you housing these animals. My cat is great!! Friendly & talkative. But just can't get neutered without special procedures to test his heart murmur. So I guess ill look online and find the closest no-kill shelter & drop him off. Its soo sad though& ill miss him. But it is for the best.
@gatorbob I didn't know they give drugs to cats to stop them from spraying. How do the cats act? Its interesting how drug companies will do whatever to get whoever on their meds. I'm sure some pets need & benefit from it but a cat that needs a neuter & treatment for a murmur....I don't think its the way to go. I really hope the shelter works. I also know that some places I can keep tabs & if they'll euthenize him, they'll let meknow so we can find a different option..
Ugh I feel so bad for you and the poor kitty!! My middle male cat sprayed a few times before he got fixed and then stopped. Vet bills are outrageous I totally understand your situation. I wish I had good advice but you seem to be on the right track. Just wanted to offer some sympathy and good luck!
But id have to do constant benadryl to my cat. Idk if its ok for his murmur either. @angieahrens @starrxoxo9 thanks. Looks like shelter is a must then. Ill miss my lil guy!
If I was near by I would take him but I'm in the uk, I love cats and used to take them in a lot before I got pregnant. I hope someone takes him in for you. Keep u's updated. Also I wouldn't recommend the rubber band balls thing as it can get infected and pretty nasty if not done properly.
@rawksy thanks but are you really willing to take a cat that sprays & poops in corners? Lol nope that rubberband things not for us. I'm inexperienced on it so I can't do it.
@angieahrens I hope so. I might wven go back to the shelter & see if he's there to adopt out. Lol. My heart hurts to think about him in a shelter scared.
@one5one I'm pretty good and getting them out of the habit. Started off by leaving them in the toilet with a cat litter tray after every meal if they poop or pee in it then I'd let them out, if they don't they stay there until they do. Also cats like to pee in clean places if there tray I dirty they won't pee there. So once one cat does his business use a scoop to clear it out. It takes a while but it does work eventually.

@rawksy he is potty trained. It wasn't until his hormones got the best of him that he started to spray marking his territory on things. Couches clothes even on my arm!! & he poops in hiding places to. Before the hormones he was ok.
@one5one sounds to me like he isn't happy about something. He may have picked up on your pregnancy or something. Ohh how I wish I could home him for you
