Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / October 2007Behavior issue after spay
Hello. I recently took my cat to an animal hospital and got her shots & spayed. After the surgery, she has had an issue with peeing outside the litter box. She still goes in the litter most of the time. Is it possible that the issue is related to the surgery? Any help appreciated. Thanks, Paul On Oct 23, 8:40 pm, looz...@gmail.com wrote: > Hello.

Its important for any kind of diag. Tim. > Hello. I recently took my cat to an animal hospital and got her > shots & spayed. Cool. How has it affected her behavior otherwise? Just curious. > After the surgery, she has had an issue with > peeing outside the litter box. She still goes in the litter most > of the time.

The litter box area is the most critical/sensitive area, it's what distinguishes cats from other pets (AFAIK, even supposedly intelligent monkeys). Always be kind to your cat around the litter box area. If you're cat were uncomfortable outside it would just go to a different area. Keep the litter box area clean. All-purpose cleaner and recycled paper towels work well (like paper towels that have been used for soaking up water, but not used for chemical/biological purposes). Always keep the platform and sides of the litter box clean so your cat doesn't smell stuff there. You might find plastic grass doormats good for underneath (or around) the litter box area, and they are easy to shake out and clean with spray cleaner and then a garden hose sprayer (if that is available to you). Good luck. > Hello. I recently took my cat to an animal hospital and got her shots > & spayed. After the surgery, she has had an issue with peeing outside > the litter box.

Thanks, Paul -------- Have you had her checked for a urinary tract infection? Best regards, ---Cindy S. > <looz...@gmail.com> wrote in message > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Best regards, > ---Cindy S. That, of course, was my first question. My other question was how recently was this done? Is it possible the stitches hurt her to get inside the litter box? If she was spayed a couple of weeks ago, this is not the problem, but if it was only a day or two ago, I'd try using a box with very low sides to see if that helps. Thank you for the responses, I will try to address them all. - Her general behavior/personality has not changed. - I'm good about keeping the litter box & area clean. This has happened weeks after the surgery and after stitches were removed. - She poops in the litter box, but is not always peeing in it. She has peed in different spots (my bed, a pillow on the window sill, and on clean clothes on a couch - all different rooms) - I'm not 100% certain, but I do not believe she squatted when she peed. - She is the new cat in the house, and my old cat is somewhat aggressive. I was keeping the new cat in a room and supervising interactions in the evenings. I keep her litter box on the opposite end of the room from where I have her food. - I have not gotten her checked for urinary tract infection, I should do this. Thanks. However, she did not have this problem before her surgery, so I wonder if getting her spayed has caused some internal damage that affects her bladder. > Thank you for the responses, I will try to address them all. > - Her general behavior/personality has not changed. [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > surgery, so I wonder if getting her spayed has caused some internal > damage that affects her bladder. The most likely cause of this is UTI (which are very common), with "new cat introduction" issues being a close second. As often as vets do spays I'd opt for the UTI before suspecting that there was damage to her bladder during the surgery. UTIs are pretty easy for a vet to diagnose, they can take a urine sample with a catheter at the office and they have the equipment there to test for bacteria and make an immediate diagnosis. You don't specify whether you're male or female, but most women know how extremely painful UTIs can be. If your cat has a UTI she may associate the pain of urination with her litter box so avoids the litter box when she has to urinate but not defecate. Hugs, CatNipped > - She is the new cat in the house, and my old cat is somewhat > aggressive. I was keeping the new cat in a room and supervising > interactions in the evenings. I keep her litter box on the > opposite end of the room from where I have her food. I've been taking care of cats for a long time, but my experience isn't nearly as expensive as some. What you just described appears to be the rule. You might have to keep them separated indefinitely, sad but a real possibility. If I were you, I would clip the aggressor's claws. The way I see it, there is a real problem with cats that don't get along inside. As a general rule, I take into consideration the fact that outside a cat can run away from something they don't like. Inside they are stuck. That inability to run away probably causes a lot of stress in a hostile situation. Good luck. > looz...@gmail.com wrote: > > - She is the new cat in the house, and my old cat is somewhat [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > Good luck. The new cat could handle the aggression of the old cat, until the operation sapped her strength. If she checks out okay with medical issues, then it's inter-cat dislike. Offer treats and food while insisting they both attend. Let them associate each other with good times. If one is always passive and the other playful, try to urge one to pick up the dominant mood of the other. If you can get rowdy cat to enjoy a petting session, try to get the other one in on it (helps with another person) so they are both lapsitting, or both playing, at the same time. See if they regard each other better if they see the other cat is not so different. >> looz...@gmail.com wrote: >> > - She is the new cat in the house, and my old cat is somewhat >> > aggressive.

The old cat is probably jealous. It might take a while. Good luck. > The new cat could handle the aggression of the old cat, until the > operation sapped her strength. Seems to me that cats operate on a significant if not high emotional level. Handling the aggression isn't all physical. > If she checks out okay with medical issues, then it's inter-cat > dislike. Being unable to get away from what one doesn't like can be a major problem. > Offer treats and food while insisting they both attend. Let them > associate each other with good times. Unless the old cat is beating up on the new cat while she is away. By the way. A digital camera that can take movies can be a good way to gather behavioral information when you aren't there. > If one is always passive and the other playful, try to urge one to > pick up the dominant mood of the other. Playful isn't the same as dominant. John Doe, aka Mark Bender, has been spamming many other user groups. I thought it would be interesting to see what a criminal low life he is. He was arrested twice for Domestic Violence and was sued into abject poverty in private lawsuit. Martin 29-10947 Mark O. Bender 7/25/2007 Dossier REQUEST OF CLIENT On July 24, 2007, Martin Markoe with eMicrophones, Inc. contacted XXXX & Associates, with the request for a full background/dossier on Mr. Mark O. Bender. SUMMARY OF INVESTIGATION Our office found Mr. Mark Bender's current address is 509 Frost, SATX 78201, to be owned by Ms. Gloria Trevino. There are many rental homes in this area. Mr. Bender has never owned property. He does not own a vehicle. He doesn't have a TX Driver's license. He does have a TX State ID. He has been arrested twice for Assault/Family/Domestic Violence. Both charges were dismissed. There is a possibility that the "Mark Bender" named in the Bexar County Civil case for damages could be the same Mark Orrin Bender with in this report. The court documents would to be ordered at any additional cost to the client.

Get some sort of life. Begin by backing away from the computer. The user's network (USENET) is a huge collection of noncommercial unmoderated forums for discussion of every topic known to man (and woman). Many newsgroups like (comp.speech.users) are for users discussing speech recognition and providing technical help to other users. Advertising a commercial web site in the speech-recognition group is prohibited. Microphone sellers like Martin Markoe should show respect (if that were possible) for other sellers and regular users of speech-recognition by following the rules: ... in the body of his post, he should not include a link to a commercial web site if he has any commercial interest in that web site. ... if he includes a signature, he should keep it to four lines or less. ... he may include links to his commercial web site in a signature. Otherwise, the malicious spammer Martin Markoe gets into a dispute with a competing vendor and starts littering his posts with links to his commercial web site. That abuse of the unmoderated speech-recognition group frustrates other vendors and annoys speech-recognition users. Commercial web site operators are welcome to offer help, but we have limitations on advertising here in technical help groups on the unmoderated USENET in order to keep the discussion focused on users and to keep it from disintegrating into a commercial dogfight. ************************************************************ Martin Markoe (from eMicrophones, Inc) harasses and stalks others, and he violates the privacy of innocent people who have nothing to do with his malicious practices. By itself, Martin Markoe's willingness to push microphones on disabled users (whose problems usually have nothing to do with a microphone) provides insight into Martin's malicious character. Anyone can express his (or her) opinion here on USENET, but advertising is not allowed except in groups specifically labeled for selling things like *forsale* and *marketplace*. Following are a few quotes to help illustrate the annoyance and frustration spam from Martin Markoe (of eMicrophones, Inc) can cause for users seeking help in the speech users group and why advertising is prohibited on USENET with explicitly labeled exceptions. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/3becc9fa6c340ffc? You are not a technologist. You sell microphones. Marty, how come whenever someone disagrees with you, you get into this high school urinating contest mode? Actually I can't find your credentials anywhere either, except as a guy selling something. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/473a2b3f9dd6a0f0? Man you really are full of yourself! Just leave me alone. I asked you a question. Silly me, I wanted to know what I was buying before I bought it. How absurd! I then get email after email after email from you telling me that you won't answer my question and trying to justify it. Lets cut the crap. You won't answer my question. I won't buy from you. So now go away and let me get USEFUL information from someone who will be honest with me instead of evasive, devisive and insulting! http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/d256b8b7563712e9? More importantly I am not here touting my business. A position which makes anything you say suspect, doesn't it. I have been watching this group for a long time and you have managed to turn it into the eMicrophones, Inc. mail list. Almost no one with expertise posts here any longer. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/6014c0e38032578f? Is anyone else beyond annoyed with the two pathetically desperate "small business owners" that have driven this group into the ground? I subscribed 6 months ago hoping to learn something about the "state-of-the-art" in voice recognition from the user's perspective. All I've managed to learn is that most users are apparently being ripped off by over-charging slimy weaseloid microphone hawkers. Martin Markoe and Mr. "speaktoyourpc.com", I beg you to consider the number of potential customers you're pissing off before you further demonstrate your witlessness by posting again. Your childish King-of-the-Group games should've stopped a loooong time ago. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/3b57c2d47a1d5994? Well said...Refreshing. [That in response to the prior message.] http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/ce73180162c1d199? ... dealing with you on the newsgroups is not an easy thing and most always turns into some type of flaming war. ... you do get into fights with many regarding microphones and you do wave your website around more often than necessary and you don't always tell the truth about competitive products. I didn't respond because I simply did not want to get into another fight which is the reason my posts have been very light in the last few months. Here are my qualifications. Certified and trained for Philips SpeechMagic, IBM ViaVoice, IBM Medspeak, Kurzweil VoiceMed, Dragon NaturallySpeaking Enterprise & L&H VoiceXpress... So please, don't call me a "Charlatan" because it is simply not true. And believe me when I tell you that some users actually get better recognition from $20 headsets than with $100 headsets. I see vendors posting all the time and as long as you are not a member of the newsgroup, there aren't constant one-up battles. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/ba6cc5fd879272fd? After getting caught with his pants down regarding his so called privacy policy, Martin continues to make a complete a.s out of himself. With this pattern of behaviour, the next step is usually stalking--email stalking (... to menacingly spread deceit) [Martin Markoe does that.] http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/84f362b69d93a460? ... you don't see the authors in all the newsgroups in a constant battle. Only with you Marty. I have seen posts from you that link to as many as 8 direct links to your website (all in one post) and your signatures fall within 5 or 10 lines long. In my book, that's called SPAMMING. ... about 2 weeks ago, you claimed to have sold thousands of GN MPA Satellites. I know for a fact that is not true. Guess what Marty.... I have a life. I don't have time to live on the newsgroups as you do. This is the 2nd time you have mentioned me being moderated on user groups. Last time, you apologized about confusing me with someone else. YOU ARE OUT OF CONTROL MARTY MARKOE. Marty, your constant abuse on these newsgroups... must come to an end. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/5585a5e972b1cc1c? I give up. I've dealt with delusional people like you before, and it leads to nowhere... you continue attacking people who are FAR more experienced and qualified than you, not to mention professional.
