I love my cats...I really, really do, but I'm at a place that isn't good. My oldest cat, Bettie, is almost 10 (next March will be her birthday) and she has gotten crazier over the last few years. I have her on anxiety medication and I also have a couple hundred dollars worth of Feliway throughout my house. I play with her, give her tons of attention, she pretty much gets what she wants, she even sleeps on my fucking head, but she's never happy. She's always fighting with the boy cats for no reason. She goes out of her way to attack and threaten them. She also pisses and poops on stuff when she's mad...which has become all of the time. Hell, if my blanket falls off the bed in the middle of the night she pisses on it almost immediately. I have taken her to the vet numerous times and she's been checked for almost everything, but there is nothing physically wrong with her. Her behaviour has no real explaination other than she is a crazy bitch. Even the vet has basically given up and said that he wouldn't blame us if we had to get rid of her...of course, who would want my crazy cat.

Anyway, I'm close to my wit's end with her. I came home from a long day to a mess left by her again today. Sadly, she acts out and ruins things more than she behaves. I really don't know what to do anymore. I don't know if she'd be happier in a home without other kitties. I don't know if she's actually miserable in her existence. I just don't know how much longer I can put up with this and I also don't know what else to do.

Gah...I'm just over it.
