I have HAD IT!

It is pretty sad when there are almost as many blog entries about our cat as our kids. This is not due to his good behavior or good looks however, quite the opposite. Once again I have HAD IT with our feline friend. A few weeks back he peed on Jeff while he was sleeping in our bed. As we can all imagine, that did not go over well. He somehow survived that incident, but we swore if he pulled anymore tricks of that sort again he would be the cutest orange kitty on display at the Humane Society. I thought for sure he would not be stupid enough to do it again, especially after getting the wrath of Jeff. I was right. This time he just waited until Jeff wasn't in the bed and then peed on our new $500 bedding. In my book, this is much worse. Jeff can easily take a shower. The bedding, on the other hand is much more tricky and expensive to clean.

So....I am done. I have had it. I told the kids he had to go. Noah immediately started crying and told the cat to go hide in the basement. Ellie's only request was that we find him a good home. I told her this may be a bit of a challenge. I personally do not know of anyone looking for a cat who pees on them or their bed and refuses to use a litter box. Jeff actually even considered giving him another chance. What?? Why he has a soft spot for a cat that peed on him in the middle of the night and is constantly pooping in the garage right next to the litter box (which Jeff cleans up - not me!) I will never know.

So that is where it stands. As for now the cat is banned from the upstairs. He is spending much of his time out in the garage, where his bed has now been moved to. In my mind the question isn't if he goes, but when and where. So, if anyone is looking for a very cute orange cat with a few personality flaws, let us know.
