Luna has another UTI (07-07-07: Back to the vet)

[Medusa]

So sorry to hear about Luna. Honestly, what's going on w/our furkids lately? Prayers sent out that she'll feel much better soon.

[Kirsten]

Thanks!

OMG, looks like these jealousy things are going on in many cat households!

I'm sure Luna will soon feel much better, usually the meds help her quickly.

But I'm a bit concerned about her relationship with Lily lately. Their jealousy is not about territories or food, it's all about me! And it's Luna who seems to be suffering from stress, at least at times. But my vet was very confident that the Relaxan will help her.

I'm sorry to hear this. I've also been having a lot of problems with aggression, jealousy, and also peeing issues but none of my cats have UTI's.

I recently had to add 3 more litterboxes and I also bought some cat attract litter and put this on top of the old litter that I use. Now they're been using all of the litterboxes and for now the peeing on the carpet has stopped. I don't know if they have this in Germany but you might want to look it up and find out. It's worked well for me.

I'm weaning Storm off of the clomicalm because he's been using the litterboxes again and it's not helping him with his aggressive behavior any more. The Relaxan sounds like something I'd like to try once Storm is off of the clomicalm. Can I buy this or is it a drug that needs a prescription?

Catty1, I'm actually thinking about contacting Nancy! I already read a lot about what she did for other Pet Talkers, and I would be very interested to know what Luna is "thinking". Maybe she's thinking I'm doing many things wrong, and sometimes I fear she's blaming me for adopting Lily, but on the other hand, she had these ocassional peeing issues long before Lily moved in. I believe it is her way to tell me something. But she also has real UTIs, caused by bacteria. My vet said that it's often stress that triggers the UTI.

krazyaboutkatz, this cat attract litter sounds interesting, but I never heard of it before, so I'm afraid it's not available here - at least not yet!

I'm sorry you're having these problems with Storm. I don't know if the Relaxan is avaible in the US, but it says on the package that it's only availabe in vet offices; at least here in Germany. It may take a few weeks until you see some progress, Luna has to take it for at least 4 weeks. I will keep you updated, if you like...

Thats One Thing That I Have Never Really Had At The Hotel Is Jealousy. They Seem To Get Along Very Well Although There Are Cliques Which Is Why You See The Same Cats In The Piles.
Tubster Andthe Princess Are Lone Cats.
We Are Sorry To Hear About Poor Luna And We Pray That Once Her Uti Clears Up That She And Lily Will Be Friends Once More.

Oh poor Luna UTI's are not fun, my Bobo jus got over one about a month or so ago and he was going nuts over it. I'm glad you were able to get the medicine she needs, that way she will be cured as soon as possible

As for jealousy, I've never had that in cats before, but then again I really only have one cat, Cc our other older cat doesn't care about attention, but now that I have two, Bobo and Kalypso who knows maybe when Kalypso is older. But I hope that you can get it all solved soon. And Nancy would definately help

I'm sorry to hear about Luna. I hope she feels better soon.

Kirsten - any more thoughts about using the pet psychic?

Kfamr and her dog Kiara in Dog General (p 2 right now) and Kalei with her rabbit Bunny, long deceased. (General p 2 or 3)

As their screen names are here, you may just want to PM them and find out about their experience. This Nancy will find out what they are thinking...and often the critters seem to know that YOU know after the reading, and the behaviour changes.

I hope miss Luna is better soon!
