Does this mean I can bring a kitty home?

Killer would enjoy that very much, I think. You have to clean up the blood though.

Have we re-named him from his recent name of Slash to Killer since the incident on Saturday?

Feed it to the dog. Other than that? I find that in order for cats to be have behaved, more often than not, they need a monthly, gentle, 4 Ft or so flight onto a matress or couch.

Notice I stressed gentle. I don't believe in abusing animals and there's a difference between a gentle toss and a fast-furball.

I have 2 kittens born mid February. I keep lots of toys, got something hanging from almost every door knob in the house to keep them busy. What ever the dollor store has to offer for cats, buy it. Cats love to chase things like feathers on a string attached to a pole. Toss a empty paper towel roll on the floor. Wad up some foil. you get the picture.

When the cat just gets too full of himself you can always toss a fake rubber snake over by them. Go hiss while you're at it.
