Hello, members of The Cat Site!
I am a new member, but I've been reading on here for about 2 years now ( I just recently decided to join. Ha). I'll have to make a introduction post for myself some point, but for now, I've got a question....would you adopt a cat knowingly that it pees everywhere? I hope I posted this in the right selection. Here is my intake...
I am about to have a cat (she is a TICA purebred Ragdoll cat) flown to me from California (I live in Florida) and....her owner says she does not use her litter box for peeing. She is 6 going on 7 years old and is spayed. She has been to the vet for a possible urinary track infection\crystals, etc all came back clear. Owner says she uses his bed to pee on and his rugs\carpet and has been doing this on and off for a couple of years now. I fell in love with her and I just can't say no, even though she pees everywhere, but I was wanting to know if anyone would adopt a cat that does this? What happens when that 1% will actually adopt a cat like this? What about the cats that cannot find that 1%? Does anyone have any tips on helping her back into the litter box? I am a determined person and will NOT give up on her.
Thanks!
