Questions and Answers Part Four
"Dear Jazz, How can I win the cat's heart? I worship the ground she walks on,
sniff everything she sleeps on. I bow to her and her "shrine" room where I
dare not enter. I dearly want to lick her bottom parts and clean her litter box. I cry and
whimper and bow to the floor in her presence.
Mom says that after 6 months,
the cat will never learn. But I want to be her friend! And Disciple! I could
bring her dirty socks. Or even dirty underware (if I can lick it first). Or preceious sticks from the
garden. What will win her heart?"
Hrothgar
Dear Hrothgar, I am worried about you. You shouldn't look up to cats that much.
We are the ones in charge! Maybe the cat is a substitute for something you didn't have
as a puppy..? But I understand you, I like cats too. Cats like mice. What they don't like,
is when you're eating from their foodbowl, or when you're
chasing them.
Just have patience. I have to disagree with your mom, it is NEVER to late to become friends with a cat. Before
you know it, she will be sleeping next to you (whick could be very
uncomfortable because of all the cathair in the nose...). Try just being there
for her, let her chase your tail and your leash. If it doesn't work, bring home mice!
The amazing Jazz
My favorite place to do "the other" is on the stairs
and I thought that mummy would be pleased if I went wee wee on the parquet flooring rather than on her sofa! Can you give me some advice
on how to break these habits as I don't want to keep getting told off. Thank you, woof woof.
Woof woof Pheobe! First of all, you write very good for someone that is only six months old! Since you are six months, you should be able to wait until you get outside
to do all the things that are supposed to be done outdoors..First of all, tell your mom to use a very strong cleansing cream, that smells VERY strongly! Tell her to put it where
you usually pee or "the other". The sofa is worse, though. Maybe she should put your things there, so you won't pee
on them!!
How often do you get to go outside? It could be a solution if you try going out every second hour for awhile, with your mom and dad
saying how good you are when you're doing it outside instead. Tell them to give you regular meals, so that they will find out when you need to go out.
But if they let you out in the garden, then they won't have any control over when you need to "go to the bathroom". Let me know more!

"Hello Jazz, my name is Phoebe and I'm writing to you from England in the hope that you might be able to help me.
I'm a little over six month's old and I'm a very good girl in many ways and very cute, but my mummy and daddy keep
telling me off for weeing and "the other" in the house. I can't understand it.
