I've had my 2 wonderful cats for 12 years. However, the male cat has been having more and more frequent uti's. He's already on special food, has been castrated b/c of frequent blockage. But as we all know, when a uti is present, he pees out of the box. I am SO tired of cleaning up only to have the smell and stain linger. I now have a baby and it disgusts me to know that he's probably crawling over dirty spots. We are getting new carpeting next week and really looking for ideas to keep him from peeing on the carpet every time he gets a uti. He's about 16y.o. and I'm afraid that as he gets older this will get worse. I'm a firm believer in dealing with whatever you bring upon yourself, but I'm getting pushed to my limit on living in a dirty house. The thought of giving him up has crossed my mind, but don't know if I could deal with the guilt. Anyone BTDT? Have ideas, advice?
