    (nearly) 2-year unsolvable urinating issue

    i hired a behaviorist for this same issue. even though i thought the peeing cat got along with others it was still a territorial thing. the suggested help was to change to cat attract litter, brush each cat several times a day using the same brush so their scent is on each other all the time...

    Help - Feline Hyperesthesia

    our cat was on buspirone for three years because of the same issue. every time he would take his pill he would go nuts but we did not know what else to do. we then started playing with two kittens a ton, because of other issues. our buspirone cat started playing all the time, and forgot about...

    Defecating outside the litter box...

    have you tried to change litter to cat attract? we had a cat that was peeing a lot of places and i hired a behaviorist, and one of the suggestions was the cat attract litter. i cant think of the brand off-hand but it was Dr. something and in a red big bag. if it is not medical this might help...

    cat peeing on blankets

    so we have been doing good doing a little scent swapping by brushing and changed litter to some behavioral litter. so far so good and last night the little guys actually slept for a time in the family room with at least ruffy and there was no fighting at feeding time this morning!

    cat peeing on blankets

    i feed the cat four am, but my husband feeds them at about eleven at night and then we feed them at like one or two in the afternoon. that’s because of the small amount of wet we can give the little guys at a time. they have dry always out. they definately eat more in the morning though but...

    cat peeing on blankets

    yes i never thought of it like that i just thought maybe it was too many cats too close. i think it’s more in the morning though because i don’t really notice that at other feeding times. maybe i’m more stressed in morning especially on days i have to go into office because i try to do too...

    cat peeing on blankets

    yes bob was kind of trying to get ruffy off of the chair that ruffy was sitting on. we were all just watching television and bob started messing with ruffy and was on the back of the chair he was on swiping at him. all of a sudden he went on the couch where ruffy sometimes sits and started...
