    peeing on the sofa

    Just an update; the tape on the sofa trick is working GREAT, I leave them on all the time and he doesn't even try to knock them off (I put tape on pieces of cardboard and have them laying on the sofa).  And I haven't found any new pee spots yet, knocks on wood.  I took him back to the vet and...

    peeing on the sofa

    My vet just gave him a shot, idk what type, and sent him on the way.  They were on Max Cat, Jules still is, never had a problem with that brand with my other cats.  I am still thinking that it was cause she was off her meds, Tre really doesn't even go on the bed that much.  We'll see how it is...

    peeing on the sofa

    Thanks for the reply.  They both were just in to see the vet on Oct. 25.  Tre had crystals and blood in his urine, that's when the vet switched his diet to the C/D diet which he eats exclusively.  Jules was clean.  I've caught Tre several times on the carpet (which lead to the vet trip above) so...

    peeing on the sofa

    Not sure who is listening, but:  The sofa is working with the tape on it.  I have also been feeding Tre on the other sofa to deter him from peeing there (I heard that works because they won't eat and pee in the same place--it's worth a try).  However, we had a minor setback.  I caught Jules...

    peeing on the sofa

    Well last night I made Tre eat on the sofa, which he did.  I sprayed lemon juice/water solution on the sofa along with Natures Miracle.  And I used the stick side to tape and made 2 cardboard contraptions to lay on the sofa.  I also started to give his Cloicalm after dinner instead of the AM.  I...

    Hello all,  I have 2 cats about the same age of 1.5 years.  One DSH male Tre and one dominate female torte, Jules.  My problem is with Tre; he pees on the same sofa almost every night.  His background: I adopted them both in March.  Things were fine with the usual play fighting. They both got...

    kitty litter

    I am feeding them a bowl of dry food and an 1/8 of wet per day per cat. I cannot remember the name of each. We tried using swheat with some crystals that were supposed to take of the odor but it didn't work. So we moved onto another brand of litter. I would say that their poo/pee doesn't...

    kitty litter

    I'm not sure if this topic belongs here but I couldn't find a better place. I have 2 cats about a year old, probably more. I am in desperate need of a good smelling, clumping litter. We tried several including the sWheat brand which was the best clumping with no dust but the smell was God...

    kitty eye problem

    The goop is not greenish in color at all. Mostly clear. Some days when we come home we think it looks like it is getting better and then later it looks worse. Is this something we should take to the vet? As for food we give them dry during the day to eat and then in the evenings we give...

    kitty eye problem

    I just found this board and think it's great. We recently (one week ago) adopted 2 5 month old kitties. We brought them home and on the second day one of them had a lot of eye discharge, he shuts it more than the other one, and eye goopies. We called the shelter and they said it could be him...
