In response to Sky's remark about getting rid of my cat.

[Guest guest]

I'm sure others are wondering why I would keep a cat that causes me such pain.

Here's the answer:

1. She has a sister. How can I separate them?

2. She cries because she wants outside. She was an outdoor cat at one time. It's

nature calling out to her. Not her fault.

3. They have been with us since 2004. It's only in the last few years that I

became super-sensitive to her voice.

4. Her sister is my husbands favorite cat.

I do take her outside on a harness and 25 foot leash and sit with her in the

backyard every chance I get. I cannot let her stay out by herself. There are

large dogs in my neighborhood. One night they tore a cat to pieces next door.

In the last week I have been using a spray bottle with water to discourage her

cries. I hate to do it. It seems to be working and she still loves me.

I would appreciate not being criticized for my life decisions. I will return the

courtesy.
