    Stress urination

    I will ask her to visit before we go, and I will try to get some feliway. Hopefully since they have met her before it won't be as stressful this time.

    Stress urination

    Yes she sleeps at the house while we are gone, same cousin will be watching this time. I admit he is overdue for a check-up. The only issue I have with a calming product is, he isn't stressed when we are on our normal schedules, how do I know if it's working? He has had crystals in the past...

    Stress urination

    We have 3 cats, two that are approximately 2 years old and a 14 year old. We moved into a new house last March. Shortly after we moved into the new house the older cat began urinating on area rugs. We added an additional litter box and the problem went away. In November we went on vacation...

    Cat Peeing In Closet

    If you don't have an enzyme cleaner handy I have found white vinegar works very well for neutralizing the urine smell and reducing repeat offenses. I scoop my upstairs box twice a day and my 2 basement boxes once a day. One of my kitties just got over a UTI and the first symptom I noticed when...

    Recovering cat personality change

    I was not offended at all, it's almost impossible to offend me. I too hope he is back to his normal self soon. He is the most affectionate cat (with my wife) that I have ever met. He is very sweet with me and all our animals, but he is a momma's boy. He actually hugs her neck all the time...

    Recovering cat personality change

    The ER did blood tests, Xray, and ultrasound. Vet could not take a urine sample because his bladder was empty, she however is a fantastic vet. When I say sick, he presented with extremely pungent, musty urine, lethargy, dehydration, and the first night he was vomiting. Both the ER and our vet...

    Recovering cat personality change

    We have a 18 month old male cat who about a week ago suddenly got sick. After a trip to the ER and our normal vet the best guess was he had a UTI. He was given antibiotics and some pain meds. He is almost back to 100%, but he is not as affectionate as he was prior to getting sick. Should I...
