Hi
my cat is a new mother , kittens are now 5 weeks; I have noticed that mother cat is peeing just outside her litter box, litter box is kept clean , I change litter every week,. I’m at wits end.

her tummy looks bloated to me (my sister says it’s due to her feeding kittens) ...

urine color is normal and no smel.

advice please

Hi! Have you been able to get her in to a vet?

Is she getting canned food to help with getting extra moisture into her system?

Do you have puppy training pee pads you can put there to help with cleanup?

Hi. I am not sure about the bloating - but does the mother cat seem to be peeing as much as she was before? Smaller amount or more frequently? I am guessing that by now the kittens are also using the litter box? If so, and they are all in a big enough area, add another litter box. Can you touch mom's belly to see if the bladder seems full/extended?
