I'm at a loss - I'm noticing a horrible sweet smell from the litterbox - we
haven't changed the litter brand and I'm simply using fantastik to clean
around the area so I'm assuming the smell is from one of the cats.

I don't know if the smell is in the urine or feces. I'm really at a loss on
this one - I've been looking online and "sweet urine" isn't listed anywhere...
nor does anything like it pop up under thyroid or diabetes problems.

ideas?

perhaps I'm crazy. That would solve everything.

The first thing I thought of was diabetes. This link gives a couple of
possibilities for sweet smelling urine.
Can't imagine was would make feces smell sweet!

Me too. Can't hurt to have a blood test to see if everything's ok.
