    It would probably make me feel a little better to know that it is medical rather than behavioural. Will the medication break up the stones? What kind of stones? How is the Odorxit, have you had a chance to use it yet?

    As long as making her feel better makes her stop peeing then I am happier. I couldn't take another behavioral problem.

    The med she is taking is clavamox just to treat any infection caused by the stones. There isn't really much that can be done about the stones. My vet said the UT Vet Clinic uses ultrasound and laser to break them up in dogs but it's apparently harder on cats. The clinic cat at my vet's office has had kidney stones for the past 8 years and she does okay. They treat any infections with antibiotics and the stones have now caused kidney damage so she gets regular sub-q fluids. She's about 15 -16 years old now so that's pretty darn good.
