I also pay the f**cking rent and buy the food. I also have black bed linens...It's you who don't get it. This is not a kitten.... this is a mature 2 year old cat.
So....why not close YOUR bedroom door so he can't get in?
Does Stephen mind it? If your door is closed, he'll probably go sleep with him.
If there is a particular place on the bed he like to lay down, put a beach towel there.
Bear, I get it. I get that you can't have an animal in the house, and not change your lifestyle in some way because it's there.
jezzer is 15 or 16 years old...she's always been a bit daffy. Now, she's quite a bit daffy. A year ago she decided she didn't like to pee in the litter box in the mud room, and started peeing in the closet in the room (no door to closet) After cleaning it up with oxy power, we put a second litter box in the closet....she decided she didn't like peeing in the closet, and moved to the tile floor in the dining room. The upshot is we now have a litter box in the middle of the dining room, with a puppy training pad next to it. Some days her muse tells her to pee in the box, other days, the voices tell her to pee on the puppy training pad. As long as there's no odor, I don't care. I mean, I certainly don't like having a litter box 10 feet away from the front door, but it's that or live in a house that smells like cat piss.
She's an old woman. I'm responsible for her. She's got no health problems to warrant putting her down, and I'm not going to just because she getting senile. She's happy.
I'm seriously trying not to make you mad bear, I know it's extra effort.
I know from experience you're not going to make the cat do things your way, if it doesn't benefit him in some way.
