You said it yourself that the vet told you why the cat was doing what it was doing, we have a cat that is 18+, it too started this, but when my mother brought another cat into the house, it all stopped. Now the cat had something to play with, and beat on. ( The beatings stopped fast when the other cat got older, and BIGGER ). Any book on cats will tell you why your cat was doing this, please consider other options before killing a cat, or any animal! BTW, the older cat used to hunt in the desert, when we lived in Arizona, but it found a substitute when we moved, instead of running down jack-rabbits, it would attack and chase any dog in the area. ( We are talking about one VERY MEAN cat ). -- John Wersan UUCP : {decvax,dual,watmath,rocksanne,rocksvax}!sunybcs!daemen!wersan "Any statements made are not mine, this computer has me mistaken for someone else, of lower intelligence."
