Biological nightmare
I've spent the last hour or so wanding around in the dark with a black light, squirting half a gallon of simple solution on glowing carpet stains. As much as I love Bubba, and as much as I abhor putting an animal down for a bad habit, Bubba is walking a fine, fine line.
I took the cats to the vet today. They haven't been in a while and were all due for rabies shots. Bubba, of course, was there to look for a medical explanation for his "issues." His bladder, naturally, was empty, so Sunday night I'll have the pleasure of collecting a urine sample to drop off for analysis.
The black light proved educational in other ways. The game room carpet is spotted like a dalmation, and I'm positive that Bubba isn't responsible for the majority of it. The bedroom carpet isn't much better. Let's hope CSI never has to investigate here. They'd have to take thousands of samples, 99% of which would be unrelated to us but still potentially foul.
