MEDICATION. This has been suggested a few times. Try it!

The right med and right dose will not make her wobbly, and will likely stop the behaviour.

Medusa has mentioned Clomicalm.

JUST TRY IT. Or YOU will have to be on tranquilizers.

Amen! I understand not wanting to medicate our cats but when it gets to this point, it's better than having to rehome them unless you want to live in a giant litter box. I have my pee cats tested once a year and they've had no side effects or medical issues whatsoever from Clomicalm and the peeing stopped almost immediately. If you don't want to try that, then try the kitty Prozac. I hear it works well, too. Feliway did not work for my cats but all cats are different just as humans are. A med that works for me may not work for someone else.

I'm sorry to hear that you're still having problems. Have you tried the Cat Attract Litter yet? This worked wonders when both Storm and Starr were peeing outside of the box.

Both of them are also now on 1/4 of a 10mg tablet of the generic form of Prozac which is Fluoxetine HCL. They're on it to help them be less stressed out and calmer. So far so good. Starr has very few poop accidents now and Storm rarely tries to chase his siblings around and act aggressive towards them.

I had this prescription filled at Costco which is similar to a Sam's club and I got 60 tablets for a little over $7.00. I use a pill splitter to cut them up. Since they taste nasty, I've been putting them in chicken flavored pill pockets which I also cut up into 4 pieces first. They now love taking this medicine. I sure hope that you'll find something that'll work for you quickly. Good luck.

Well I decided before I would medicate Ashley that I would give Feliway a try.

It worked for about 3 weeks and now it's back again. I replaced the filter and it's still happening. I even caught Ashley the other night while I was in living room back up to the corner getting ready to spray. I yelled at her to stop it and she did but I can't take this much more.

Their is pee out in the kitchen more than before. I called the vets today to see what more I can do for her and they said that since it's behavorial their is nothing they can do.

I said no pills? She said no. I didn't talk with the vet since she is out right now but I said ok. So I'm going to try my old vet and see if she gives anything.

Definitely check with your old vet! JustineNYC had to go to another vet - her first one had never HEARD of one med....

Hang in there!

This is such a frustrating problem, then to have a vet tell you NO pills!!! I would definitely find another vet!!! We had success with transdermal Prozac when Nicholas was spraying!

Your vet needs to get w/the program. There are several meds that you can safely give a pee cat. My local vet is out of the loop, too, though. She didn't even know what the antibiotic Convenia is and when I told her that my other vet gave Coco Puff an injection of it and that it lasts for two weeks, her face went blank. Vets need to continually take classes and courses, etc. to keep up w/the newest meds, procedures, etc. I'll say it again: Clomicalm.
