My mother has a cat that sprays horribly bad. (yes it's fixed and it's a female). It was a stray that adopted my mom. She has a couple other cats, one of which would fight with but that cat has since passed. We hoped that since that stress was gone it would stop. it hasn't. Been to the vet, no infection. He suggested it could just be a behavioral problem. How do you figure out if it actually is behavioral? Can't find a direct link between a particular action and her spraying and it's not usually in the same spot. She's not a big 'lover' and when she's through with you, she let's you know so we don't think it's an attention thing. any advice or websites would be greatly appreciated. any web sites I've found haven't told me how to figure out what would be causing this 'behavioral' problem or natural remedies.

Any pet bird lovers out there?
Thinking about getting a parrot, either Amazon or African Grey. Anyone have experience with either? Any pros or cons you can share?
I have had smaller birds in the past, i.e. cockatiels, so have some experience, but never have owned a larger bird.

tip for banana bread lovers. sm
I just disovered (thru a friend) that very ripe bananas can be frozen (in their skin) no freezer bag required to make banana bread on a future date. I tried this, and it does work! It is great!. I love making banana bread for my family, but find that many times, the bananas are ripening too quick for my busy schedule.

So you bird lovers-name some of your favorite
When i got home, my parrot would ask me "being a good bird?" (as though since I had been gone, I may have been naughty).
My next favorite was when he got something especially good to eat, he would say "mmm, yum-yum!". We share spaghettis noodles and race either to the middle!

fumble fingers for music lovers
When I get like this, the only cure is to push the keyboard aside and pretend the tray is a piano and then listen to a fast piano piece and try to "play" it on the keyboard tray. (Obviously, I don't own a piano--yet.) This warms up my fingers and wrists, relaxes me, brings me joy if it is a favorite piece of music, and then when I type again it is usually more accurate and my speed is up. Sounds crazy but it works for me! Only takes about 3 minutes.
Another trick my piano teacher taught me when I was a kid was to practice the difficult parts with gloves on (yeh, that long ago). Then when I took off the gloves, I could play it better. This might work for the computer keyboard as well. You could use Playtex gloves perhaps.
For saurkraut lovers, put apples, onions and pork chops in crock pot.
Wonderful meal. Some fresh rye bread with butter. Yummie.
Its not the animal lovers fault about abortion and abuse of innocent children, it's the fault...
of our government to allow such a law. The innocent dogs being killed over the so-called rabies roundup vs. shortage of "beef" have no government to help protect their rights to live so the humans have to step in and protect their rights and the humans should protect the human's rights as well to live, but when a government passes laws, etc., you can only fault the government; afterall, they have the final decision.
