    Litterbox avoidance, advice needed!

    The new problem is the pooping though... He's been *touching wood* consistent with the pads. He doesn't seem afraid they'll hurt him or trying not to go until the last minute or anything. Or, going often like humans with infection do. Going to call tomorrow though and describe what's been...

    Litterbox avoidance, advice needed!

    Nope haven't had any tests done yet... But would he not be deathly ill by now if he had an untreated uti for longer than 6 months? (Which is about how long the pee pads have been a routine thing). I've seen no blood or even strain for pees. The poops are what he's leaving in an inconsistent...

    Litterbox avoidance, advice needed!

    We do have a modified litter box for him already. But it's downstairs. Which I know may be the issue. With the layout of our house upstairs we have nowhere quiet to put actual litter. The pee pads let us allow him somewhere to go, but without tracking litter. Even with daily sweeps, with both of...

    Litterbox avoidance, advice needed!

    So there's a bit of a story here. I have a cat who is getting older now, he's 12. He's never been a skinny guy. The last... I'll say year or so, he was having issues with peeing in the box, but would poop in the box. This led to our idea to try pee pads since we had already added feliway and...

    Whiskers temptations cat treats

    Boo gets a few of the seafood flavor after her fluids. Have never noticed anything strange from maybe 4-5, a couple times a week. She loves them, absolute favorite. I'm sure every company has had bad reviews at some point... :/

    at last check, she had returned to normal, aside from creatnine being very slightly above normal (by 2 numbers) *touching wood*  things did skyrocket initially though when we first noticed her sick, so i know its not something to just ignore. but, luckily things recovered pretty well. and she...

    CRF/CKD Cat.... food?

    We ended up trying yesterday... She got really upset, bad location or something... We got 20mls in before she just wasn't having it anymore, so we let her go for the day. Tried again in a lower spot the next day, got another 40mls in (on top of some with food). The 40ml was what I was...

    Talked to the vet yesterday, he suggested a few more days off.... then to try again but on a lesser dose. im just not sure how much less. he recommended 60ml, but last time when she was uncomfortable was only 90ml.... so im tempted to try 50 or even 45, just to see how it goes. he recommends...
