Scary Shiny Shoes
Cat Chat – Brought to You by Dr. Elsey’s (06-30-2021) #0047: Tracie describes a highly unusual situation in which a friend’s cat became horrified and then hyper-vigilant about her new Italian patent leather shoes and stopped sleeping with her at night, guarding the shoes instead! Dr. Mikel comes up with some theories to explain this behavior and some suggestions on how to manage these scary shoes so the kitty can go back to sleeping with his human. (Spoiler Alert: the shoes now live only in her car, where she puts them on after leaving the house!)
