One of our cats was diagnosed with crystals 2 weeks ago. For a month he has been peeing outside of the litter box. We took him in right away but the vet didn't find anything wrong the first visit. The second visit (2 weeks ago) he was diagnosed with crystals (no infections) and given Urinary SO food. He doesn't have blood in his urine anymore, but is still peeing often and in small amounts. He doesn't like the food, so that doesn't help.
I thought the peeing on the floor would get better, but it's just getting worse. Before he was peeing on things, garbage bags, clothes, blankets. Now he is peeing EVERYWHERE. Just on the floor when there is nothing there, in the sink, in the shower, in the bathtub, on the toilet seat, in the babies crib, in empty baskets, on garbage cans. I'm losing my mind at this point. Right now he is in the bathroom, has been for a few hours, and even though there is a litter box in there and it's a small space he is still peeing outside of the box. But he DOES go in the box too.
I don't know what to do at this point. It's out of hand. We've tried different litters, right now we have 2 boxes with crystals and 2 boxes with cat attract. He's on urinary so food, vet said he's fine now. We can't have him peeing around our whole house on everything. The house reeks and it's impossible to find every spot he's gone. And we have a baby who is just starting to get mobile. We don't want him chewing his hands after he's touched cat pee and can't use strong cleaning products either.
