We had a stray that did this for oh a good 4 years or so, working out the energy of his wild growing up.<BR/><BR/>Peer pressure worked on Ashes, eventuallySparky Duckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10599649584020982942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27448101.post-86872201617338334732007-05-25T00:34:00.000-05:002007-05-25T00:34:00.000-05:00Yes, you get it!

Oh, there he is...When did my cat go to your house? Oh, there he is at the front door winding up for another long shriek...excuse me while I answer his summons.<BR/><BR/>My guy is 9 and has mellowed a bit over the past year. He's gotten louder though. I discovered quite by accident that he <B><I>DOES NOT</I></B> like those tooty noisemakers, the ones that unfurl and tweet when you blow on them. He is so terrified of it all I have to do is reach for the one I keep in my pencil cup on my desk. If he doesn't see me reaching for it, all I have to do it make it rattle and he hightails it. When I get real sick and tired of his shenanagins I give it a long, loud, satisfying blow and I'm in blissful peace for the next 10 minutes. Then he comes slinking out, looks around to be sure it's gone and behaves until the next time.<BR/><BR/>I wouldn't give him up for anything.Harlekwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01841943052975232245noreply@blogger.com
