Sigh. The decision has been made to get rid of Vader. Danny and I talked for a long time about it last night, and we decided that although many of the things he does wrong would probably improve, it would take maybe a year to do so, and I can't handle them alone for that long when Danny's gone on trips. So we're taking him to a shelter today

Okay, whoever posted the last comment is 1. Rude and 2. Probably a Troll. Curious, did you try the spray bottle method? Like when he does something wrong you fill a spritzer with water and you squirt him. It works under the theory that he won't necessarily always know it was you showering him in wetness but he'll know 'when I do X, I get nasty water on my fur'
Just a thought. Good luck in making the hard choices.

Thanks for the support. :-/

I tried spraying him with water... he didn't really seem to mind it much, so it wasn't too effective.

Some animals are alot like people. Stubborn. I think you did well when you named him Vader, tho little did you know he'd already given himself over to the darkside. *Hugs* Sorry that you have to give him up...but peace of mind is probably worth it...and he's still kitty-age right? I wouldn't worry tons about shelter issues. People love babies and that includes animal babies. So he's young and will find a new home quickly.

I started reading what you wrote and my first thought was 'cut off his legs--that's just sick!' and then I read the rest and the lightbulb went off! True. Vaderkat has a kinder, gentler chance at redemption...*runs away before she starts talking of the odd images in her head of kitty with Vader suit on his body making kerrrrrshawwwww breathing noises*
