He saved the cat from a tree when it was just a kitten so he doesn't know its lineage or anything, but lineage probably has nothing at all to do with the problem. The problem is that the cat is developing very strange behaviors. It goes around and sniffs at sweaters and bits of rug and things like that, and then it attempts to masturbate on these items. This occurs constantly regardless of who is present. Does anyone know what causes these problems? My room-mate is afraid that the cat is mal-adjusted, it that's possible for cats. -eli -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eli Liang --- University of Maryland Computer Vision Lab, (301) 454-4526 ARPA: liang@cvl, eli@mit-mc, eli@mit-prep CSNET: liang@cvl UUCP: {seismo,rlgvax,allegra,brl-bmd,nrl-css}!umcp-cs!cvl!liang
