Re: [Felvtalk] Kitten Sitting & cat wet the bed
Just an FYI, just about any waterproof mattress cover you get will involve plastic/rubberized plastic in order to be - waterproof. You will find it reflects your body heat which is great in the winter but can sometimes be a bit warm in the summer! I even tried putting two fitted sheets on the mattress over the top of the cover. But for an Ohio winter it is as good as having an electric blanket! kat PS. Oz and Miss Kitty are doing well altho both are disinclined to leave the master bath. Oz tried it once and freaked out when one of my dogs, Polar Bear, wanted to chase and play like he does with my other cats. Of course, Polar Bear is about 75# with a mass of long white fur (kindof like a white chow chow) so that could have been part of it. Had to wrap Oz in a sweatshirt and take him hissing and howling back to the bathroom! k On 11/5/12, MaiMaiPG wrote: > There are lots of good waterproof mattress pads.

Re: [Felvtalk] Kitten Sitting & cat wet the bed
There are lots of good waterproof mattress pads. None of mine have an issue but I use them anywaythey aren't the plastic crinkledy type and are very comfortable. Odo Ban is my favorite.

[Felvtalk] Kitten Sitting & cat wet the bed
The kittens were recently wormed for round worms. The owner is taking them to the vet today at 10:30. The kittens had thrown up & more diarrhea overnight. I have another problem that I need help with. One of my cats peed on the bed yesterday, urine down to the matress. I need some odor spray recommendations. Also, does anybody recommend some kind of waterproof mattress pad cover? On Sun, Nov 4, 2012 at 10:47 PM, Lee Evans wrote: > Were they dewormed?
