    In my own defense, I'm not assuming that Ally "misses" me per se, it's the fact that clearly something is altered for her when I'm gone so that she feels the need to pee on my things when I get back. I realize I miss her more than she misses me, although she does seem pretty happy to see me when I get back :) .

    You did read the part about assuming the territory of the owner when they leave? That would explain the peeing when you get back - the cats are asserting territory.

    It just seems like retribution.

    So, when you leave, she says "my pillows" and then pees on them. It all makes sense now! :)

    You joke, but it's true.
