Since both kitties are suffering from taking antibiotics and aren't
feeling very well, I thought they could both use some extra purrs
right now. Purrs for healed infections, repopulated intestinal
flora, and improved appetites!

Captain and Stanley are nicknamed "the purrmonsters" for a reason. Loud
purrs and plenty of purr-ayers are on the way for our two kitty buddies!
May we see posts ASAP from our hoomin friends describing how their feline
owners are much improved!
I've had some success.adding acidophilus to cat food, to help curb the
litterbox problems that can accompany antibiotics. The vet suggested 1/2
capsule per day, but that was for 8
Melody and she weighed about 6 pounds at the time. You might want to
discuss dosage advice with your own vet, based on the cat's size and
health condition.

Thank you so much! Oscar left a particularly liquid offering in the
litter box. (At least she's doing *that* in the litter box, even if
she doesn't seem to want to pee there. Actually, between the first
"accident" and this second one, I can tell from cleaning the litterbox
that she's done the right thing a few times, so I'm not sure what's
going on.) I'm sure it's the antibiotics. I may head to Vitamin
Cottage for some bacterial goodness in a couple of hours and see if
Oscar will take it.

Is Oscar still on the antibiotics? The reason she doesn't want to pee
in the litter box may be
she found it icky from her own liquid offering. She probably also
associates it with her upset tummy.

I've been cleaning the litterbox very regularly so that there wouldn't
be any stuff for her to step in when she next went to use it. I
suppose I could bring up her second box though ...
I agree she may have negative associations.

With the antibiotics and a cats nose, her own pee and poop may well smell
very bad to her right now.

True enough. They smell much less offensive than usual to me. Go
figure. At least she's depositing her runny #2 in the box. Thank
$DEITY for small favors.
