Cat Forum / General Topics / September 2005Help me save Rosie..
Hi, I have a HUGE HUGE problem with my cat. She's 1 and a half years old, and started developing a weird habit. A few months ago, she's started peeing in the house, maybe once a week. Then twice a week, and so on. I posted here for info and a few of you mentioned that maybe it was because she wasn't neutered, or she had an urinal infection. So I followed your sugestion and brang her to the vet. She's is now neutered and the vet told me there was no trace of urinal infection. Now, it's been 2 months, and she is still peeing in the house. Sometimes, she can be outside like for 5-6 straight hours, and first thing she does when entering the house is peeing. She's doing that on very expensive furniture, and my mom's and dad's are about to snap!!! And if this thing continues, i'll come back home when day, and Rosie will be missing for sure. I'm running out of solution. Rosie's is not showing any weirdness signs, she's still as lovable as always. PLEASE HELP SAVE ROSIE!! This is her picture, she's the one on the bottow right.. http://www.cyberanimaux.com/html/album/photo.cfm?numero=659&depart=1&autre=1 Thanks I am a little disturbed by your subject line here. Save her from what? are you going to have her killed for peeing in what you consider the wrong place?? If she isnt peeing in a litter box, then most likely there is something about a litter box she doesn't like. First of all, you don't even mention if you have one. She goes outside then comes in to go pee.. did you used to have a box then just get rid of it cause "she is supposed to go outside"? Well she doesnt know that. Put one back in the house. If you want to eliminate it, you can put small bits of dirt in it to help her acclimate to going outside, but you can not force it!! If there is one in the house, is it someplace loud with a lot of traffic? Lots of cats want privacy when using the facilities.. Make sure the litter box is in a quiet place.. But not so quiet that you forget to clean it. Dirty litter boxes are a sure way of getting your cat to go somewhere else. Would you want to walk over week old feces to go to the bathroom??? I think not! and your cat spends much more time per day grooming than you do. Make it clean. Is it big enough? If she can't fit in it, she wont use it. Are there other cats? Get an additional box, Get an additional box anyway. Will make her feel special and could eliminate this problem to boot. Some cats want to pee in one box, and poop in another. Some just want the option of a second box and wont ever use it. Its a small amount of retail space to make your kitty happy. Try all this and still nothing? well there are products out there to help. Cat attract is one. Feliway is another. Or maybe it isn't the litter box she is having a problem with. Is anyone in the house hold harassing her, and making her unhappy? or a second pet, a dog or another cat? Maybe she would be happier if you found her a different home. > Hi, I have a HUGE HUGE problem with my cat. > [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > > Thanks Don't forget to get the odor neutralizer to put on where she has gone before animals will go back to the same place if they smell their odor.

But thanks for the idea >I am a little disturbed by your subject line here. Save her from what? >are > you going to have her killed for peeing in what you consider the wrong > place?? No, me I won't, but maybe my parents will. The house looks all dirty now, with yellow stains on furnitures everywhere. That's why the subjet, help me save Rosie! > If she isnt peeing in a litter box, then most likely there is something > about a litter box she doesn't like.

Ok, this idea sounds just like it.. Yeah, I remove the litter when she began to go out, but then she's was peeing outside, so I though she got the idea of it. According to your suggestion, I just installed her litter back, and put some dirt in it, just to see!! Hope this goes well with training Rosie.. Thanks for the tips man, I appreciate.. >Hi, I have a HUGE HUGE problem with my cat. You're an idiot. Why haven't you taken the cat to a vet? Shithead.. Rosie would probably be better off with an intelligent owner. > You're an idiot. Why haven't you taken the cat to a vet? Shithead.. > Rosie would probably be better off with an intelligent owner. Read again.. I took her to the vet Hopefully you read my post This is definitely a behavior problem if your vet found nothing wrong and did a full work up. Something has her worked up A troll, perhaps?? > Hopefully you read my post > > This is definitely a behavior problem if your vet found nothing wrong and > did a full work up. > Something has her worked up yuppers!! |
