Deer problem continued (2)
This post is about Scooby and the deer again.
Yesterday, described in the last post, Scooby saw the deer again. All day long he ran around the house from window to window. He would climb all over everything, knocking things down. He would pee in the house. He would not eat or sleep, until about 7 pm when he was tired out. Then he ate and fell asleep on the rug. Earlier, after reading some comments, I sprayed Feliway, which I forgot I had, all over the house. I tried using it before to calm him but it had little effect. I will try again today.
Deer problems return
I had been spending a lot of time chasing the deer out of the backyard. It is the same animal family. I recognize them. The problem is not that they do anything bad out there, but that Scooby is terrified of them and is crazy for the next 24 hours. They have not been back for a while. Unfortunately he saw them before me, and crazy day begins. Here is a photo of three cats at the top of the stair looking down at a window with a deer view. Here is also a photo of the deer–again. It is 20 degrees C outside, and I decided to see if Scooby can “man up” and I shall not chase them away. He needs to get used to them. I shall see how it goes. A snowstorm is supposed to blow in tonight but we shall see.

The usual suspects
Scooby’s new raccoon
Scooby is enjoying a new cat toy to play with. There are so many cat toys about, that I do not recall where this came from, or when; but, it has shown up and Scooby likes it a lot. He is fickle, and will tire of it easily. Then he will move on to something else. Ellen from 15andmeowing sent us the fish pillow as a present along with some other things. We like it very much and appreciate it.
