  • Feely ((HUGS)) hun - can I ask if you feel like you are being a drama queen about things? Or do you feel that your hubby is unreasonable?

    button have you checked up on the cleaning stuff you use? I've heard that some cleaning chemicals smell like rival kitty wee to them ...

    I know they can like the smell of bleach, but I don't bleach my coats lol. It's just clothes he goes for I'm sure, when he's sick he does it on clothes too? Maybe our smell comforts him or maybe he just wants to secretly pee on me :D

    I'm a lovely owner! I give him more expensive food than we eat, and this is how they repay me!? BAH! They probs haven't peed anywhere, but I'd like that black LED thing anyways to be sure, and also to see if OH has been hitting the toilet bowl, lol

    Buttons They don't like the smell of orange. When we lived in a flat years ago - we had a housebound neighbour who had a flat full of animals - and he used to let them out on the landing to pee! :mad:

    We got some orange essential oil and sprinkled it around our half of the landing - so they didn't pee by our front door. It seemed to work. Could you sprinkle some around the doorways of the bedrooms - at least to keep it out of there?

    I really don't know. I am prone to a bit of drama queening, but I don't know if I am in this case, if I'm making too much out of it. It is probably somewhere in the middle, but it seems like everyone else things he is the totally innocent victim.

    Thanks 3. I know he doesn't like lemon but OH has bought in cheap lemon juice that smells sweet? I just put some on my hand and he licked it off :rolleyes:

    I'll go get some orange essential oils in town today then :) I just want it to sprinkle on tumble drier sheets and dried out baby wipes, and pop one in each drawer so if he ever gets near and wants to go for a widdle, hopefully the stink will send him away, plus it will make our clothes smell citrus'y fresh :)

    I'll sprinkle some at the front door and entrance to Keira's room, plus will probably make my house smell nice when you first walk in the door. I hate the stink of cats that sometimes you smell, not like wee or poo or anything, just a cat smell? You know you can tell if someone has dogs....like that.

    feelie i have read back a few of your posts and for a while i have felt that your OH has been controlling you, the more i read the more i worry for you. to me this sounds like mental abuse, for someone to put you down as much as he does and say thing like leaving your child with someone will end up in him being abused is awful. you are a strong person and a fantastic mummy to your little boy and you need to be happy. i agree with BM you need some you time to enjoy yourself and be a person instead of a mummy 24/7! im here if you ever want to chat xxx
