So I have to watch my grandma's cat for the next 3 weeks or so while she finishes chemo as she has no immune system and her cat bit her and she was in the hospital on IV antibiotics for 4 days because of it. Her doctor says the cat can't stay with her. So the cat is with me until my grandma gets better. However this cat is kind of generally horrible to everyone but tolerates my grandma. I have to go in the room to feed her and she goes and pees and poops in her dry food. (I fees her wet food) and is peeing and pooping all over the room she's in. It's honestly really gross and hard to deal with. She also screams like she's being killed if you so much as walk past her but if you give her treats she's just fine. I also need to take her to the vet as she had teeth pullef about 2 months ago and my grandma couldn't get her to take the antibiotics so I was wondering if kitty Prozac or some such thing would be reasonable. Also any suggestions on getting her to the vet as I can't touch her without gloves on otherwise she'd ruin me. As well as she will pee and poop if anyone other than my grandma tries to pick her up. I feel bad about it but currently she is in a large dog crate with her litter box food and water to try to minimize damage as it is too much to clean and scrub an entire room 4 times a day or to just let it stink. Any advice is appreciated I believe she is just scared but I really can't fix it. She also may have diabetes as her blood sugar was high last time I took her to the vet and is also getting tests run on that.
