I have two cats, a three year old female and a two year old male. The male, Indiana, has lived with us since he was eight weeks. Lately, he's been peeing EVERYWHERE but the litter box. I changed litter, because the local store ran out, but went back to the usual brand at the end of June. He was fine until Thursday. I don't know what transpired Thursday while I was at work, but he's been off since. I took him to the vet and paid $430 for them to tell me nothing is wrong except for a full bladder. They wanted me take him to the er for a catheter to drain his bladder, but I'm not shelling out another $500 off of a guess.

What could be the problem? I'm debating separating them. Maybe my oldest is stressing him.

Is he neutered?

Well the full bladder is an issue. I doubt its a behavioral issue. Could be a UTI, bladder infection, or a blockage among other things. I'd go to another vet an get his urine tested. They should of done it while you were at the vets the first time.

 

[toddypu]

Ok. I'll look into that. His paperwork doesn't indicate a urine test

 

[toddypu]

Yes. He was neutered when he was still a baby.
