MIL's kitty pees on her!

[krazyaboutkatz]

I'm sorry to hear this. She must be unhappy or stressed about something. Has anything changed? Maybe she's upset because she can't go outside any more. She could be unhappy with her litter box or the litter that's being used. Most cats prefer uncovered litter boxes and unscented litter.

I've been using feliway plugins, added more litter boxes,and now I use unscented litter after using cat attract litter for a while. Your mom also needs to be sure to wash her bedding very well. I'd add some enzyme cleaner to the wash to make sure that all of urine odor comes out. I hope that she'll be able to find a solution for this problem. Good luck.

Not sure what all is going on in your MIL's house or with her kitty, but this site.... http://www.catinfo.org/litterbox.htm has a TON of information on litterbox habits and things you can do at home to help. You already took the first step by having the cat vet checked, but since everything checked out ok then that site is your next step before it gets to be a habit.

Good luck.

I have had Tubster Panther spray on me, as I think that hes trying to make her his Purrson, instead of all the other Found Cats.
At least I hope that is waht it was.
Thats so sad when our Cats dont use the box and we pray that you can find a way to show your friend what the boxes full of sand are for.

I just peed to say I LOVE YOU.

Catlady, That link was very helpful and I am going to try to make some adjustments to Misty's litterbox and also add another box to the 2nd bathroom and see if that helps.

I'd LIKE to know what her vet would recommend but she never did call back at all. I think it's time to switch vets! This clinic has been awful about saying they'd have the vet call me back and then no one ever does. But if I bring in a cat for a check up for a relatively minor problem, they sure aren't bashful about wanting to run $300-400 in tests! I've also been charged more for procedures than what the told me the cost would be BEFORE the procedure was done (like spaying and nail trimming, etc.). I digress.

So, anywho, I am also going to try to Feliway and see if that makes any difference and get all of MIL's bed and bedding washing with cat urine removal that I bought at the vets office when Ozzie had his infection in his peeper.

Thanks for the suggestions folks!
