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.
This morning I got up early, and
the deer were in the back again. Scooby had not gotten up yet, so I decided to go out and chase them away. I made a video with my old pocket camera, but WordPress Media said “MOV” files were not allowed to be uploaded, so that is the end of the video. It was bad and looked like one of those Sasquatch movies, to be truthful. I have posted a video before, but I must have used my iphone or something else. I will have to check on it. Anyway, he did not see them today but he is still lurking about this morning. I think it is residual behavior from yesterday.

The big deer is watching me look at her through the window. They always watch me watching them.
The “big” snowstorm predicted did not occur at least not in my neighborhood, which makes me happy. I shall research the “movie file” problem. We will hopefully return to normal programming next Wednesday.
Thanks to Marc’s comment, I remember how to do a video embed and now it is shown.
it is hard when you have a high strung kitty. Have you tried Rescue Remedy?

I would not describe him as high strung but very laid back except for this one thing. Never heard of Rescue Remedy but I shall look it up. No more deer around since i posted this.

Poor scooby!
As for your movie issue you can convert mov files on a PC or simply upload to YouTube first 🙂

Thanks Marc! It was so long since I did a video, I forgot what to do! It is up now, but a bad video nevertheless. Chalk it up to a learning experience!

I keep wondering why Scooby is scared,maybe he,s not used to anything in the yard it’s a shame he gets so stressed out,I mean you think he would learn from your other felines that they’re nothing to fear.I wonder how long they stay as you could take Scooby s mind off them by playing with him or give him a treat every time they appear.Do you get youtube as they have relaxing music on there for cats who are stressed.Hope you sort thing’s out.

Poor Scooby being so stressed by the deer, and poor you for having to clean up after him. Chasing the deer away is probably your best bet. Keep making it unpleasant for them to be in your yard. Do them make some type of Deer-B-Gone repellent that you can put out?

I looked into that before when the deer were eating my flowering plants, but a fence around the flowers and bushes was the only effective measure. Got my video up now.

Aw, the poor guy. That is such an unusual reaction for a cat. I hope you can find a solution.
