12/30/2011 Poop update Week 4 Mieshelle, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. My time has been consumed by the holidays. Well, basically he has defecated in the box every single time since day one at we’re at the end of week 4 right now. Who would have thought! I also didn’t realize how much this problem had been bothering me and my mood is so much better too! I never thought people could get depressed because of their cat pooping all over the house. Well, actually, that DOES sound pretty depressing doesn’t it?…ha! I will be taking back the Prozac the vet initially prescribed me before I worked with you. Obviously, we didn’t even need to use it like you said (well, maybe I did initially)! I am a little erked by this as you might imagine and will be changing vets. I am still continuing the (behavior advice removed) and also he loves the (behavior advice removed) in that certain way you mentioned. The bed, sofa, and wing back chairs haven’t been covered in plastic shower curtains since we started. I am going to have a New Years party in style now! Yippee!! (picture me dancing on top of the dining room table — the one without the poop under it– because that is what I’ll be doing — who needs a New Years resolution when you’ve already achieved it??) All the best to you and your family, Adam “Keeper”,”Bobcat”, and “Elka”
