He had a full exam, and was given a 10 day prescription for Amoxil and Oxazepam. We tried putting him on food the Vet recommended, but he wouldn't touch it. He normally eats Iams Multicat, and doesn't even look at anything else. He drinks lots of water as well.

For a few days after the meds were finished he seemed better, then the peeing everywhere started again. Back to the Vet for another exam, a complete urinalysis and a new prescription for Oxezapam and Baytril. Again, he seemed better for a few days, now hes back to peeing on the furniture and licking his privates again. What is going on here?

His urinalysis showed no evidence of crystals, his temperature was normal and the physical exam showed no abnormalities. I'm perplexed! ..and a little disheartened to have my furniture full of cat pee all the time. Is there something we could be missing, that the Vet wouldn't normally test for? This is SO frustrating for us, and Jack as well I am sure! Please help!
I have a cat named ashes, he has the same problem, my vet told me that about 30% of males are born with this disorder, you have to change his diet, put him on a urinary tract food from either purina cat or special kitty, the vet also has a food for this disorder, but it is expensive, my ashes is doing fine now that i switched foods
