Me and my fiance just recently got two new kittens.
Everything has been totally and completely fine with them, they're in perfect health, they use the litter box properly.. they seem like perfect kittens!
Except dora.
she is the female of the two (the other; Meeko, is a male)
Well at night they sleep on our bed, normally above my head on my pillow.
One night we woke up and the bed was wet at the foot of the bed, one of them had peed!
But we had been asleep when it happened so we didn't know which one.
Then it happened again a few days later, it was dora! we caught her in the act.
then it went two weeks with nothing. until last night.
They often will sleep for a bit above my head, and then one will wake up and start playing, and that will wake the other and they'll both start playing around until they tucker themselves out and go back to sleep.
but this time meeko just kept sleeping i guess, nothing out of the norm, i guess dora was just hyper anyways, she was playing around the foot of the bed, just jumping on my feet and rolling around.. nothing huge, normal playing behaviour.. i'm used to it, so it doesn't bother me anymore.. except the odd time a claw gets stuck in my foot! heh.
anyways she was playing and them BAM my foot feels wet, and i jump up, and lift the covers, she had peed on the bed again! while playing i assume.
At first, my fiance and I thought maybe because she did it the first few times that it was her scent that kept her coming back, so we flipped the mattress over.. but nope i guess not.
Can anyone explain why she is doing this? i'm kind of getting sick of sleeping on towels/changing the sheets more often then i need to be.
I'm taking her to the vet, just to be 100% sure she is healthy, and doesn't have a UTI.. but i dunno, i don't think she does.. wouldn't there be any other symptoms?
thanks <3
(ps: i know there was already a sticky thread, but i want some actual opinions on this situation)
