Hello all,
So while ago, I posted something in health forum regarding UTI and overweight. Long story short, one of my cats started pee outside of litter box. It happened once a month, then it became once a day, so I brought her to the vet and the vet mentioned that it could be due to her overweight, and UTI issue. The vet prescribed UTI pill and I gave her occasionally. I also changed diet she gradually lost weight. However, when I stop giving her the pill, she still peed outside of litter box despite of weight loss.
After visiting vet frequently for check-up and all, we did more test on her including urine sample, blood test, as well as X-Ray. The result came out fine, and vet mentioned that this is most likely behavior issue. Now I am at the point I am not sure what caused her having such behavior.
Past few weeks, she was fine, and I did not see her peeing outside of litter box that frequent, maybe 1 or 2 that I hardly noticed, but recently, I start seeing the issue again. The thing is that when she peed, I walked there, and even though I did not yell, she automatically hides to the place that she usually goes. Past 3 events, I saw her peeing 1. when I was able to wake up (and I give them breakfast after), 2. middle of the day (few hours before the meal time) 3. 30 mins before dinner meal time. I thought if it is relates to meal time but nothing has changed and I often notice her peeing not close to meal time as well.
Anyone can help me what can possible cause her this behavior? It has been few month already and I really want to know why. Thank you so much
