FluffySP
Since coming home I have had a bad problem with FSP. She must have
started urinating on the floor while I was away and my continual attempts to clean it up has resulted in a huge big stain right in the doorway. Yesterday I got in the carpet shampoo people (at great cost) and they did the house and managed to get rid of the stain. I watched Fluff like a hawk but you guessed it, I turned my back for a second and she rushed back and urinated on the patch where the stain had been. It's enough to make you cry. I have been to the vet and got pet Odorex, sprinkled pepper etc. tried a heap of solutions. The carpet cleaning man said the way to handle urine was to soak it up slowly with a clean towel and to leave the cloth on the patch to keep soaking it up until it stops being damp. This stops it soaking into the carpet. You then put a damp clean cloth on it and keep changing that. A neighbour called in while I was meditating on all this and said "oh, there is only one solution, you will have to 'put her down!" You could have heard me shriek a mile away. I don't know how anyone could even suggest that as a solution!!!! I just adore the little monster. I guess the only thing I can do at the moment is leave her outside as much as possible and watch her every minute she is indoors. Sigh. Bev -- The email of the species is more deadly than the mail. |

Could you try keeping an extra litter box really close to where she has
chosen to go? At least for a while? Jo "Bev" wrote in message ... Since coming home I have had a bad problem with FSP.

Jo, She refuses to use a litter box. There is one just near the carpet. I have tossed her into litter boxes and she often uses them then but won't get in one herself. Bev -- |

Can you temporarily put a catlitter box in that spot for a while? Or do you even do litterboxes?(I can't remember). I would put one there for some time, and maybe add a box elsewhere. Maybe she is objecting to going where B & C do. |
