I don't want to give her away, but she just won't stop urinating!
Hello Everyone again!
To answer some of your earlier questions....I am really not to sure why she picked those leather sofas. We have other couches in the house? We did go away in July, and we left my cats at my in-laws while we were away....I noticed the urinating shortly after we returned. Perhaps, that is what initiated it all??? So I have my little one confined to a comfortable bedroom. It has been really difficult for all of us, including her, my older cat, and both my husband and I. I have spent much of the day up in the room with her. She seems to be calming down and getting used to the room only now. I have some Feliway sprayed in the room to keep her less anxious. Well, just to report....so far no pee spots on the carpet! There is no real furniture in this room for her to pee on, except a chair that she is sleeping on. And guess what?? She has been peeing in her box! This is great. I am so proud of her! I hope she keeps it up. Gurpreet |

It will be less stressful for someone to come in to feed, water, and spend some time with the cats than them having to leave their home while you are away. Taking them to your in-laws may not have anything to do with the present problem but the kitties will be less stressed if they are in familiar surroundings. W |

Perhaps, that is what initiated it all??? It sure might be. How long were you gone? It is really disruptive for cats to be uprooted from their home, especially if their customary humans are absent. So I have my little one confined to a comfortable bedroom. It has been really difficult for all of us, including her, my older cat, and both my husband and I. I have spent much of the day up in the room with her. She seems to be calming down and getting used to the room only now. I have some Feliway sprayed in the room to keep her less anxious. Excellent. Just little steps. Gentle down, give yourself some time. She is okay in there. And it is okay not to want to live in filth. I know that sometimes it seems like it is either that or do without the cat, but you are bright and resourceful and have a loving heart, I can tell. You can retrain her. She's a lucky girl. Well, just to report....so far no pee spots on the carpet! There is no real furniture in this room for her to pee on, except a chair that she is sleeping on. And guess what?? She has been peeing in her box! This is great. I am so proud of her! I hope she keeps it up. This is GREAT! One thing you can count on: they are creatures of habit. Just like us, habit comforts them. So one thing about confining her is that you are retraining her. Reforming the good habits, if you will, while you get the pee out of the couch and rugs. It is a good thing. |
