Hairballs and Peeing outside box- is there a link?

[beth]

Hello, new to the group here. I am the owner of 2 cats, Tycho, NM, 17
and Ginger, SF, 10.

Ginger is a small shorthaired kitty. She has recently (over the last
year) peed outside the box on and off. Vet checks her out to be fine.
We've noticed a correlation between her having a bad hairball and
peeing outside the box. When she gets her petromalt daily and feels
good, she goes in the litter. When we slip up and forget, she acts
"sick" and pees on the floor. We've been extra vigilant about daily
petromalt, but sometimes it's impossible to catch her. She sees us
and runs!

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this link. Thanks!

never had it happen to me, but it sounds like you figured it out!

Is it possible she retches so hard, she loses bladder control?
