We have a cat whose health issues have meant that he leaks more or less wherever he goes. He is on medication that has brought his personality back (he's clearly so much less uncomfortable than he was), but he still leaks. The vet suggested we consider using diapers. When I started researching it, I found all the sites reviewing diapers mention belly bands, but they don't review or recommend any brands, like they do with diapers. I couldn't find any details, but I thought a belly band was worth trying before going for diapers, since he could use the box for pooping whenever he wants without the diaper being in the way.
We just tried it, and it did not stop the leaking. Examining the band after removing it, it appeared to have collected exactly no urine.
I would just like to know if anyone has actually tried the belly bands and whether they had any success. People say the anatomy isn't right, but still they are suggested all over the place.
