Okay Sassy is recovering from the urinary tract infection wonderfully. She now sits down to pee. But I've been letting her out during the day from the room we had her in to observe her. I thought since it's been since last Saturday and during the day she's fine I could let her out tonight. This morning I woke up to Smokie wanting to be fed, so I fed him. Then I smelled in the office a pungent smell of cat poop. I looked all over first didn't see it. But after a second time around I found it. Must have blended in with the wood floors or something. Same place as before, behind the treadmill. So I picked it up and looked at it again. There was a tiny amount of blood and a little mucus. They were not terribly hard I could mush them with my fingers flat, but they did look bulky. When I opened one up it was dry inside kind of grainy powdery with hair. The inside looked like I could see granules of cat food. I couldn't tell the color of the hair as it was the same color of the poop so I'm going to assume that it was white fur. There is really only one cat with a white hind end which is Sassy.
But it doesn't make sense when she's in the room we have her in she doesn't poop outside the box , but the one day I let her out she does.
Is this some sort of behavior thing or is she just having a hard time with hairballs? She does groom herself a lot. I counted about 3-4 times a day. And being that I can't comb her, that could be why. I've been giving her olive oil and hairball remedy when she decides she wants it.
So now I'm not sure what's up. Anyone have any ideas? She seems fine otherwise. Still trying to find things I can sell so I can take her in for a blood test.
