Cat Forum / General Topics / February 2004My cat stopped pee-ing?
It's been probably 4 days since I last saw pee in one of her two litter boxes. She still poops normally (about once every 2 days) and her BM looks normal. So I'm guessing that either something's wrong with her, or she is pee-ing on the rug somewhere that I still don't know about. She is 2 years old next month. If she is pee-ing on the rug, wouldn't the smell be obvious by now? What other explanation can there be?

I just couldn't think of anything clever to say. If the cat is eating and drinking and acting normal, then chances are she's peeing some place else. However, when a cat starts urinating outside of the normal places, then she's trying to tell you something. either that her box is not clean enough, or she's not feeling well. IF she's acting normal, put an additional litterbox down.. if she still doesn't then get thy kitty to a vet.. if she is NOT acting normal, then get the kitty to a vet.. > It's been probably 4 days since I last saw pee in one of her two > litter boxes.

I have to strongly disagree with you here. A cat with a urinary tract infection rarely acts sick or shows symptoms other than going outside of the litterbox, or frequent urination. When a cat suddenly starts to urinate outside the litterbox it is important to rule out a medical cause *first* before assuming there is a behavior problem. Better to avoid the cat having to possibly suffer painful urination for any length of time. Ruling out a medical cause is especially important when the cat is male, as they are much more likely to get blocked (because of the difference in the anatomy of their urethra) and can die from uremic poisoning if they aren't treated quickly. In this regard it is definitely important to be safe rather than sorry.

A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way." - W.H.

Please. I nearly lost a cat that way. LT |
