THAT'S INSANE, dickwad:
"Despite Skinner's clear denunciation of "negative
reinforcement" (1958) NEARLY EVER LEARNING
THEORY model involves the USE OF PUNISHMENT.
Of curse, Skinner has never to my knowledge, demonstrated
HOWE we escape the phenomenon that an expected
reward not received is experienced as a punishment
and can produce extensive and persistent aggression
(Azrin et al, 1966)."

All four of ours have had winter adventures. They've made
it back thin and hungry but mostly unscathed. Our Montana
parking lot stray -- declawed by her previous owner -- survived
a Montana winter outdoors, apparently by living underneath
warm engine blocks. Cats are creative, resilient and wired for
survival ...
My very best wishes to you and Ruby. Don't give up hope!
