thing I could do.

Other than say and then post about it on DU.

It was only the liquid part of the barf that ended up on the shoulder strap of the brief case.

He doesn't even digest the food. He eats and the power barfs the undigested food back up. We thought it was an issue with chicken, but it was beef tonight.

this could indicate hairballs he is trying to dislodge. I had one that would do that every so often too. In and right back out. Blech.

Check with your local pet store - they have stuff that can help with this.

just as he was about to pee in my purse.

I have no idea why he thought he should do that.

Moggy of the fond memories used to leave very smelly deposits on suitcases, toolbags or coats of the people he did not have a good reaction to. Or to comment on the fact that he thought I was working away from home much too long.
He would leave his deposits like that looking right at you, if he could - and within the next five minutes, use his litter box as if nothing was wrong.
It was definitely a communication process with him; otherwise, he was a real lover of a cat.

very nasty stuff in it. I changed my kitty to Iam's, and he rarely barfed with that brand. Also try some Petmalt, kitty's love it and it helps them pass the fur balls. Just put a dab on their paw and let him lick it off.

All my cats have ever done is try to dig to China in their litter boxes. No barfs or poops in shoes ever.

Now that's some reaction: Fucking cat barfed on my briefcase.

I would have said, "Is your tummy-wummy upset, boopsy? I feel so bad for you."

Then I would take boopsy out every day during shedding season and comb the shedding fur off him/her. I would also cut about five hours off my work week, just to play with boopsy and bring him/her more catnip, thus ending the hostility toward the briefcase.
