Hello!
I was curious to know if any of you experienced a similar problem.
We have two 11-week old kittens (siblings) and the boy kitty has been peeing on us in our bed the past 3 nights.
First 3 days we've had them, both used the litter box like a charm all three days.
Then on day 4, August (the boy kitty) peed on my husband in the morning (around 7:15-7:30 AM). The next day, he peed on me while I was asleep (around 9:00AM), and the following morning, he peed on my husband again around the same time mentioned above. So we called the vet (they have their first vet appointment next Thursday) asking if we should try to get him in sooner. They basically gave us a UTI testing kit (which we will do of course). We will test him/try to collect urine from him this weekend.
The thing is, we've had a cat who had a UTI. Usually it's strained peeing, not a lot of pee comes out, and cleaning their genitals obsessively. August doesn't have any of these symptoms. When he pees, he pees! All of it comes out, and then he acts like nothing happened. Super playful, eats well, uses the litter box again, etc.
Last night, I woke up dry, so I was hopping he might have suddenly gotten over it. Nope. Just received a text from my husband (again, 7:15 AM) that he peed all over him.
Thanks ahead of time for any insight!
