playing detective: how high can a cat pee?
I just found that one of my critters has pee'd all over a stack of stuff in plastic baskets that was sitting on the hardwood floor in my dining room (ok, storage room). There was a plastic grocery bag on top of the pile at a height of about 18" that had pee puddled in its creases and there was pee in the bottom of each plastic basket. I want to know which animal did this so I can address it in some way. I have 5 dogs and 3 cats. One dog, a male, is tall enough to pee that high but is a very laid-back guy. He goes in and out the doggie door without any problems and would only balk if there were a thunderstorm, which there is not. I don't think it was him. Two of the cats are very easygoing and I see them using the litter box all of the time. The third is a bit neurotic. He is a neutered male about 5 years old. I have had him about a year. This will sound crazy but I got him from someone who gave him up because he would not adjust to their new puppy. He didn't do very well here at first (where I was sure my easygoing dogs would be no problem) but has come around alot. (I actually tried to give him back within 2 weeks but they had moved already.) Tyson walks through the room all of the time and rubs up against the dogs, sits on the stairs and watches us, meows at me -alot-, and loves for me to come in -his- room to pet him. However, if I try to carry him in to where we are watching tv he won't stay, and if I try to pet him when he is on the stairs (frequently meowing at me) he just runs up to his room. When I first got him he did a round of peeing and pooping on my clothes. So, Tyson is the more obvious perpetrator. What do you think? Can a medium-sized adult male (neutered) cat pee 18" high?

What do you think? Can a medium-sized adult male (neutered) cat pee
18" high? Yep. I'm sure you can smell the difference between cat and dog pee so you can tell if it's the cat. It sounds like Tyson. I have a guy who can pee two feet easily. |

What do you think? Can a medium-sized adult male (neutered) cat pee
18" high? Thanks! I would say no. But could he have gotten on top of the pile of "stuff" and peed on the bag and it ran all over the stuff?
