It works out.<br /><br />Searching - I'm not so sure about the IBS for Midgie, since the main source of the odor is clearly coming from the other end. Is this the sort of thing that can work back up the GI tract and emerge as halitosis?<br /><br />Eric - it took Mithra about four months to warm up to Tria, but they became pretty good buddies before Tria disappeared. It's been a year for Midgie, though, and at this point I just don't see much changing. The intensity has diminished, so perhaps there is hope. Good luck with Elvis and Mori.<br />Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03463621516644789183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977625681756554695.post-18709534405469604202013-02-21T13:29:19.846-06:002013-02-21T13:29:19.846-06:00When we lived in the U.P., Mrs. Dr. Phil's old...When we lived in the U.P., Mrs. Dr. Phil's old orange cat once got distracted by the time change and wanted to pound on our bedroom door upstairs at early hours. So I'd go downstairs and lock him in the bathroom with one of the litter pans.<br /><br />This was apparently such a good game, that after a few days he'd run ahead to the bathroom, jump on the closed toilet and sit perched on the edge of the sink and wait for me.<br /><br />Silly cats. <br /><br />Dr. PhilDr. Phil (Physics)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11943336276878704753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5977625681756554695.post-45591772769474585842013-02-21T13:11:12.837-06:002013-02-21T13:11:12.837-06:00We had a smelly adopted cat, too.
