1. That's true
It really irritates me that mine go outside eat a little grass and then come in and barf it on the carpet.

2. Use Petromalt. The treats work especially well.

3. I use the stuff in the tube
They won't eat any other treats but Pounce Tartar Control. I know barf is part of life with cats, but it's still no fun!

4. Do any of your other cats...

eat the barf before you can get to it? I had a Momcat who used to barf a lot and, when she did, one of her children would come running up and start to gobble it up like it was a delicacy! :barf:

5. Morrissey, the little one
But not very often. I think he's growing up; we got him on the cusp of cathood.

9. Oh man
I was sitting on my mom's couch this weekend givving the cat a nice rub-down...when he suddenly did that awful back-bucking chicken-being-strangled noise and then SPLASH.

Not splat.

SPLASH.

Ew. He exploded.

10. Projectile vomiting in the feline is NOT a pleasant experience.
But think how he must feel!

11. just found some this morning on the window sill
I try to encourage them to do it on the hardwood floor. A lot easier to clean than on the carpet.

He also has a urinary tract problem which I've been able to control with the proper food. he sneezes a lot which can't be stopped since he refuses to take pills and I refuse to force him

14. Doncha love that sound in the middle of the night? *Whoompa-WHOOMPA*...
WHOOMPA...p-tuey! Should you get up and clean it then, when you're already in bed, and it feels *perfect*? Or wait until the morning, although you might forget all about it (until you step in it)?

One of my cats is a dry-food bolter, so he spits up a lot. When I hear him eating like a maniac, I envision a cannon being loaded. Will he go off or not? Sounds quiet. Hmm, maybe he's okay, and I can get some sleep, finally. Ahh, sweet repose.... *Whoompa-WHOOMPA-WHOOMPA*...p-tuey! :grr:
