[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's gross but you clearly want to do it.  It's your house, so do it.  Be free.  Don't crowdsource it on DCUM.  For what purpose?  So you can justify it over and over again?  It's your house.  You lock him up when guests are there so no one who would mind needs to know about it.  Done.[/quote]

You're right. I'm going to talk to DH about it tonight and just wanted to have thought through all the suggestions/objections/other options. DH gets really pissed about it, and the cat is originally mine (although DH and I have been together 8 years, so he loves the cat as much as I do), so I feel a lot of guilt/obligation to try to keep the cat's impact to a minimum.

Last night I got up and went and slept in the guest room because the cat was having a super neurotic night and wouldn't stop yowling. We shut him out of the bedroom and then he just yowled at the door, so going into the guest room at least kept him away from bothering DH.

It's been really hard dealing with the personality changes and health issues the last 6 months, but the cat is otherwise extremely energetic and the vet says in very good shape, so while it has crossed my mind a few times that "I can't live like this," it seems like his issues shift or resolve for a few days every couple of weeks, and we think we're getting better. I think I just needed to "talk" it out because I've felt so stressed over the cat in general. [/quote]
