    Trouble Urinating

    No the urine was normal, vet said it was bladder/penile spasms and inflammation. I thought about trying a water fountain but he is scared of the faucet so I thought it might look the same to him.

    Trouble Urinating

He was constantly scratching and biting himself leaving small sores that turned into nasty scabs. The vet said it was an allergy to either fish meal...

    Avoiding future accidents??

    Thank you, I tossed the catnip laced "litter" and he explored around yesterday then this afternoon I found urine in the box as far as I can tell the peeing in his bed may be a one time thing. I actually asked the vet about that wheat litter before I bought the fluffy paper and he said it would...
