    Pee problem--need advice

    we finished the clavamox Sunday. We started letting him out to roam a bit Friday night. Today he had the whole run of the house with no accidents. I did pen him back up tonight until we are sure he's over his issues. We sprayed the areas we had previously cleaned with enzyme cleaner...

    Pee problem--need advice

    OK-- One week later and Im happy to say all spots have been cleaned w/enzyme cleaner and dried. Then we recleaned the areas w/a RUG Doctor filled w/Oxyclean. There is absolutely no smell whatsoever! Blackie is still confined and is doing ok--he has about 7 days left on the medicine. He is...

    They've Gone Snaky!

    As far as confinement--maybe get a large dog crate for the boy--- We have our Blackie confined in one right now for litter box training and while he is being medicated for a possible cystitis problem.. This way Mommy cat can have the run of the house to choose her birthing spot without...

    They've Gone Snaky!

    Moxy I don't blame you for keeping the kittens. We used to raise rabbits and would only release them to good homes. And we also offered to take them back if they grew tired of them. We recieved half of the bunnies back and that put an end to their breeding. As far as the kitty conflict...

    Pee problem--need advice

    We have tackled the stained areas with Natures Miracle and just rented a HUGE rug doctor to retreat the stains. We have no intentions on putting down Feliway until these areas are completely treated. We have treated them repeatedly with enzyme cleaners---see previous posts in this thread...

    Pee problem--need advice

    Went to the vet today. There was trace blood and protein in his urine. The vet couldn't say for sure that the blood wasn't from doing the bladder tap but said there was a little more than usual. No white blood cells or crystals were found. He put him on Clavamox and I got it in him by...

    Meowing Problem, Please Help!

    Please take Kitty to the vet---my beloved Bear did that same howling & it turned out to be thyroid which they can treat. It makes them quite manic and howling is all part of the behaviour that exhibited with this! Good luck!

    Pee problem--need advice

    No offense taken...Im just speaking out of frustration...we had recently recarpeted the basement due to a flood not so long ago so the thought of having to redo them is unthinkable... We are treating the areas multiple times and with having Blackie confined during this time, we are hoping that...

    Vet check is scheduled for Thursday at 3:15pm--will report back their findings. In the meantime, he is relaxing in his den. Also additional advice regarding behaviour modification is still appreciated. Thank you Melisa

    Pee problem--need advice

    We have been cleaning w/enzyme cleaners and doing the CSI thing w/the black light. I know my threads have been rather lengthy but I do believe I've mentioned this. This has proved that all the spots are indeed clean. If I have to rip up the bloody carpets, my husband is sure to disown me...

    Pee problem--need advice

    I cleaned his box this evening and he is using it consistantly while confined. I had a cat with cystitis and that cat went everywhere. We have a 3 story house and he mostly slept on the top floor and he had ZERO accidents on the other floors of the house. I really think he became turned off...

    Pee problem--need advice

    I uncovered and moved the box out of the corner when I discovered he wasn't using it to pee in about 3 months ago. I used the Cat Attract which is supposed to be used temporarily to bring the cat back to the box. Then you mix in the regular litter (which was the same litter used by the resuce)...

    Pee problem--need advice

    I have read everything on the cat pee problem. I adopted Blackie after I lost my beloved Bear last fall. All seemed well until after I noticed that Blackie was peeing outside of the box. He was peeing in the general vicinity but not actually in the box itself. I attributed it to the box...

    goodbye kermit untill we meet again

    I can really understand where you and your husband are at. I lost my beloved Bear in November. I had guilt on several levels because I didn't know how sick he was and when he was diagnosed with the thyroid disease and kidney cancer he was gone in a matter of weeks. I beat myself up endlessly...
