It is probably no surprise that cats are neat and clean if you own them. cats keeping themselves clean, they make sure that everything around them is tidy, such as their beds, litter boxes, and so forth. Have you ever noticed that your cat keeps peeing everywhere around your house? May cat owners face this issue and ask this question “Why is my cat peeing everywhere all of a sudden?” It may indicate that something is wrong. When your cat suddenly begins to urinate inappropriately, you need to rule out any medical causes before treating it. There are a number of reasons why cats urinate inappropriately. The conflict between cats may lead to inappropriate urination, a dislike for the litter-box type or litter, a medical condition may present or a more complex issue that may lead to inefficient environmental perception. As part of this article, we will examine some of the most commonly occurring causes of inappropriate urination, as well as some steps to help treat the condition.

by Blaz Bajič (Editor), Ana Svetel (Editor) Sensory environmental relationships - understood as dynamic, embodied, and emplaced affective sensory perceptions in (and of) the environment - invite us to remember the past, infuse our experiences of the present, and entice us to imagine the future. Ethnographically specific, socially and culturally nuanced approaches to environmental relationships require considerable conceptual and practical flexibility and inventiveness. Reflecting this commitment, 'Sensory Environmental Relationships' aims to offer a new anthropological understanding of how, in our individual and collective lives, senses, places, and temporalities intersect. While anthropologists have been studying the sensory environmental relationships in connection to people's pasts and presents, futures remain conspicuously absent. By bringing different timeframes into the foreground of the analysis, this volume contributes to filling in the gap in our understanding of the human experience. The volume's ethnographically based contributions address the questions of how embodied and emplaced practices of sensing, while moving or staying in place in diverse environments, engender, inform, and affect the processes of remembering (and forgetting) the past, experiencing the present, and imagining the future. Drawing on the fields of environmental anthropology, sensory studies, studies of movement and mobility, memory studies, and other related (sub)disciplines, as well as diverse, epistemologically and methodologically experimental approaches, the volume explores the ways in which sensory environmental relationships "touch" upon our pasts, presents, and futures.

As a political theorist, publisher, environmental campaigner, poet, as well as an outstanding designer, William Morris (1834–1896) was one of the single most influential figures of the nineteenth century. Under his direction Morris & Co. grew to the status of Arts & Crafts icon that it remains to this day. Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co. (1861–1875) was a furnishings and decorative arts manufacturer and retailer founded by the artist and designer William Morris with friends from the Pre-Raphaelites. With its successor Morris & Co. (1875–1940) the firm's medieval-inspired aesthetic and respect for hand-craftsmanship and traditional textile arts had a profound influence on the decoration of churches and houses into the early 20th century. Although its most influential period was during the flourishing of the Arts and Crafts Movement in the 1880s and 1890s, Morris & Co. remained in operation in a limited fashion from World War I until its closure in 1940. The firm's designs are still sold today under licences given to Sanderson & Sons.

The climate crisis threatens to collapse civilization, killing billions and causing species extinction by the end of this century. It's not just about protecting the planet for future generations; it's about saving our own lives. The urgent state of emergency demands a psychological ideal state, a flow state where we feel optimal and perform at our best. Margaret Klein Salamon's Climate Emergency Fund supports groups like Last Generation, which takes drastic measures to raise awareness, such as attacking famous works of art like Monet's Haystacks. This iconoclasm is about self-empowerment, rising above a fossilized past and mobilizing sympathizers through attention-grabbing stunts. The climate emergency requires us to enter a state of spiritual warfare, embracing the psychological ideal state that drives collective action. Keywords: climate crisis, existential danger, collapse of civilization, species extinction, Margaret Klein Salamon, Climate Emergency Fund, Last Generation.
I wish to thank both Lois Dodd for agreeing to the phone conversation and for her time and thoughtfulness with answering my questions and to share her experience and ideas with our readers. I would also like to thank Elizabeth O’Reilly for the many ways she helped make this possible. Larry Groff: Do you spend a lot of time looking and thinking about the subject before you start to paint? Lois Dodd: It's more about what I see when I'm walking around looking for something. Then after that it a matter of what size I want to work with and the proportion it will fit into. Then I try to isolate something that would make a good painting, a good subject. I look through my pile of gessoed panels that are different sizes and different proportions. They are all rectangles or squares and I always take a few of those when I go out so I have a variety of panels to choose from because that is the first decision. If you're looking at something you want to paint and it looks exciting, the lighting is good and then you have to decide what size what shape of a panel will it fit onto; you ask yourself, is it a horizontal thing or vertical or square. Those are the first choices. LG: How do you start a painting? Do you make studies or thumbnails first? Do you use a viewfinder of some sort? LOIS DODD: I don't really use a viewfinder but I can put my hands up to frame the view or something like that. I don't make thumbnail sketches, I'm more interested in starting right on the panel. I start with thinned out yellow paint and draw with the brush. So it's pretty minimal, general and not tight. You asked me if I scrape off, I don't use a scraper but I don't use heavy paint either I really paint rather thinly so we never get to the point where I can scrape. But if I don't like what I've done I can rub it off with a rag with turpentine and rub it all around and then I have a nice colored ground to work into that I can use.
