Prayers for dear Ashley and you.

Well Ashley has been on her meds and I thought things were going great, there was no pee on the counter tops and I just got done cleaning the house and it's 8:36 p.m. right now and I was grabbing some papers and Ashley goes right up to that spot and lifts her tail as if she is going to pee and she almost started and I yelled NO

I'm so pissed...I know today I missed the pill but come on 1 day and she's going to do this.

It smells like pee again so now I'm going to have to clean the spot and my back is killing me from the cleaning the house.

I'm calling the vets in the morning but she's going to be getting a pill now.

I'm just so ticked.

That pill might be a short-acting medication, and a lower dose (which is good).

Maybe a time-release would be better?

Hey, if a woman misses a Pill, she can get pregnant!

Hope all is well soon - the medication is working, just gotta keep it in her system somehow.

Prayers for you and Ashley!

It's the same w/Clomicalm; you can't miss a dose. You've got to be diligent w/giving her the meds faithfully.

...and we all know what fun it is to medicate a CAT!

[Medusa]

Clomicalm is administered at night before bed, so my Fur Posse knows to line up when I say "Medicine time!". Everyone gets their meds before bed, pee cats included. No, they don't love taking meds but they do love the Greenie treat that I give them afterwards. If you train Ashley in that way, it'll become routine for both of you.

One of my cats is on amitryptiline and he has no more peeing problems. You can't skip a day, believe me. He has gotten to the point where he expects the pill every night and is quite nice about it. He used to attack me until I bled, but I persisted and now he is so much better. He no longer pees out of the box or gets obstructed. So try meds, they can help sooo much.
