Good morning

The conversation started off with me being concerned that he's not drinking enough during the day. It's been very hot here the last few days. This led to him telling me that if he drinks he needs to wee and therefore use the school toilets which he won't do because they're 'disgusting'. I'm not 100% sure what he means by that but I don't think it's down to worrying about germs. He's not the best at explaining some things clearly, as far as I can make out they're very messy........it's a school with nearly 1000 kids so I suppose that's not that unusual. Whatever he means by 'messy and disgusting' it's enough for him to avoid them.

The problem I have is that I also avoid public toilets wherever possible because I feel exactly the same as you! And with me it is because of germs and multiple people using the same space. He knows this, so it's difficult for me to preach to him that he should be doing something I avoid myself he ran rings round me last night
Don't worry, you're not the only one who has hovvered in an impossible position with a handbag dangling from you in a public loo, after using a tissue to open the door, close the lock and touch the flusher :o

As weird as this sounds, I am so glad that I am not the only person who thinks like that...Hovering isnt easy when you have a slightly dodgy knee :rotfl:

Morning everyone.

Please has anyone any suggestions as to what to do about a cat who is washing herself constantly.

Its a girl cat so they wash more anyway and she has got delicate skin as she had a bad start -shrew bite when she was little and she is always in the wars.

She has some bald patches on her back end which the vet says are alopechia - OH was convinced she was at deaths door and insisted we take her but the vet said nothing to worry about.

She has had the worming tablet and flea drops so it's not lack of condition. She is fed away from her brothers on her own so it's not stress at meal times.

Everyone is off dry food now as OH is convinced all the cats are dehydrated so all on wet - they get a mixture of gravy and jelly pouches, three different types including high meat content

I've sent for some of the calming powders to mix in with her food although I don't think they will make much difference.

My gut instinct is that its more a general skin thing rather than a stressed out cat but OH does not agree.

In fact I think OH is more of the problem than she us - he spends hours discussing various theories as to why she has bald patches and even rings me from work with more theories, each madder than the rest. Last night he was convinced she wasn't eating and that was why she was loosing condition. It was no use me telling him that during the day if she shows up she gets fed by herself in the kitchen - boys eat outside or on the lawn. It's me that feeds her about 90% of the time and no she is not starving.

Right now the boys are asleep by the patio door, one inside a cardboard box and Sophie is curled on my lap fast asleep, not licking herself and not a care in the world and certainly not a stressed cat.

Thankyou tweets:)is'nt it silly the things that we worry about when other people have so much more to contend with and this will hopefully get resolved without presenting me with an unexpected expense:eek:

I tend to worry like this and it gets done.

I am worrying at the moment because we due to have a new kitchen or bathroom in the near future and I keep thinking how they going to do it if I working . Council wont do one house at a time so I can book couple days off work

No doubt it will be sorted and I am worrying about nothing

I'm with you both there Would you feel comfortable speaking to the school about it? If the toilets are dirty then someone should make them aware of this. Perhaps the cleaners are not doing their job properly. A schoolboy shouldn't have to worry about drinking and using the toilet so the school ought to address this issue. Maybe they don't realise the problem exists but once they know they may let your son use staff toilets which hopefully won't be in as bad a state
