I love him to death but this is becoming a nightmare. I have to leave everything hidden and all doors closed to my house.
I've had to buy new curtains, lost bills because they were shredded before I could realize it, missing earrings, he mutilated one of my heels. On top of that my mail is attacked. I don't know what to do. I work all day and I know he gets lonely I can NOT get another cat, and honestly don't want another one BUT what do I do? Part of me truly believes he gets lonely but this just isn't working. I don't know if I could find him a home with someone home full-time to give him the attention he obviously wants.
How/what do I do to get control of him? What would you do if you were me?

I have everything HIGH and he jumps. I cannot get another cat my mobile home park allows only 1 cat. He has to be in a good place. I will not ship him off to the pound but this isn't going to work. I've had him since February 14th. I need help in this. Plus I've got diabetes so I'm going crazy trying to keep everything (medicine) safe and hidden but this is my house and I have it all put away. How do I find him a good, sincere home. How? And people judge you so bad for something like this. I'm just miserable. I just am. ;o(

What is advice on the best way to find good homes for a cat (if you aren't lucky enough to have a friend/family member with a solution?)

This is not an ex-boyfriend. HONEST. He is just a lonely one and taking it out on my house. I can't change anything. 10 months and he seems more unhappy.

He's been neutered since August. I bought him from a store (no one had 'free' kittens). He purrs like a maniac and is lovable BUT I need to find him a better home. I have to just do it. If anyone lives in So. California and knows of someone looking for an inside cat and has tons of love please send him my way. I guess I have a new year's resolution already. Thanks to all of you for your advice. It means everything - honest.

You may have to confine him to the bathroom while you're out, and work on training him when you're home.
Has he been neutered yet? Sometimes that calms kitties down.
If training and neutering don't work, you might be better off giving him to a home where people will be able to give him more attention.
Good luck!

The cat is lonely and is acting out. a friend needs to be added to the household or find a home for the kitty.

You just have to be firm and loud with him when you say NO, and hide your most precious things when you're not there. My cat over time, learned to stop, but it takes time and effort.
Just to be clear, we are talking about an actual CAT here and not a metaphor representing your ex-boyfriend, correct?

HA! I would find a "no-kill" shelter and take his butt right over there! Get out the yellow pages.
