Urine dye?
 
I have 3 cats. One (or more) has recently taken to urinating outside the
litter box. I think I know which one it is but would like to be sure.

Does anyone know of anything that can be given to a cat that will color its
urine? This way I could give it to the cat in question and if the next mess
showed the color I would know.

TIA

Thanks both for the info.

Except now what specifically is a "Wood's Light"? Is this a special
frequency of UV or would a "standard" UV "party" light bulb work?

Thanks again.

Wood's light test uses a black light. Cat urine shows up under a black
light.

What does it look like under the black light? Does it show up that weird
white-purple color? Or does it show up yellow?



Greenish-yellow. Like this.
