    my kitty dribbles

    I recently rescued a stray kitten. She is about 5 months old now and she dribbles. There are tiny wet spots around her litter box and on the bare floors. She uses clumping litter and there are miniscule clumps in her litter box (besides the regular ones). When I first brought her in she would always leave a couple of drops on my T-shirt when I held her.

    Please help if you've had a similar experience with a small kitten dribbling?

    While I have not had personal experience with dribbling, I have looked into one of the books I keep on Vet Care.

    Dribbling can be a sign of a urinary tract infection. I would definately speak to your vet and have her evaluated. Sorry I'm not more help.

    Sounds like she's saying that her kitty leaves little dribbles (drops) of pee. I would also make sure she does not have a urinary tract infection.

    BTW: I forgot to say welcome to Pet Talk! You will love it here.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I called the vet yesterday morning and no one ever called me back. So I will try again today.

    I have no way of getting pictures since I have an ancient computer and no digital camera....

    Please call that vet again, or look for another one, as your kitty needs help urgently!

    Called the vet again - Angel is naow on Clavamox. I hope that will clear things up. She is such a darling kitten and I want her to be well and happy.

    Thanks to all of you for your concern.
