Re: Litter tray issues

Hey red wine lady! Sorry for the late response Aw bless him (and you!) it’s a shame he doesn;t like cats, but I have to say I am impressed that his previous owners got rid of the kitten rather then him - it sounds like they did their best and loved him too. I have to say, I think mine also would do ...

Re: Litter tray issues

Just a thought red wine lady - does your cat get on with other cats? My adult cat had separation anxiety actually, she would really suffer when I left the house for too long, which was one of my biggest motives for getting a second cat - because he was so boisterous, it was hard for her, but really,...

Re: Litter tray issues

Hi Thank you, I ordered more cystease now, which is a cheaper version of cystophan - it has similar ingredients (you might be interested with it being cheaper!) I have also order zylklene and beaphar calm spot on, so actually I planned to tackle possible stress before taking him back to the vet. I a...

Re: Litter tray issues

Sorry, three posts in a row! But wouldnt he be drinking a lot and urinating a lot if that was the case? He does drink, but not a huge amount and I haven’t noticed that he urinates too much? If this continues I will take him back to the vet for further tests? Its a shame as he was supposedly healthy!...

Re: Litter tray issues

Just to add, yes its true, he needs enticing to eat and seems to have very little interest in food! Which is a shame. He does eat eventually though, bits - I would like to see him eating double to Ben honest as he is a growing kitten and my adult cat eats double what he eats and exercises much less....

Re: Litter tray issues

I so hope you are wrongn about this concern He is no longer constipated - I should have mentioned that. He is concentrating his urine well apparenty - vet did a urine sample with a needle. He is making a big scene though and unproductive visits to his litter tray. Every time I see it I take him into...

Re: Litter tray issues

In every other way he is fine, plays, eats (albeit fussy!) etc. He shouldn’t be stressed as he has a really good life - I try to give them everything and I love them both to absolute bits. But he was quite stressed out when I had to seperate him at night in a seperate room alone, I made the room lov...

Re: Litter tray issues

Hi, I hope it is ok to come back to this. The reason I am is because the cat I was talking about meowed a lot this morning, visited the two trays he uses mostly, then left. I fell asleep as it was early early am post their 5am breakfast, but I know he doesn’t usually use the other litter trays (I ha...

Re: Litter tray issues

Thank you so much everyone who responded. I have popped that litter into my amazon basket and I will buy it soon. He is very particular but I bet I can be sitting next to him, he actually does much better with his toilet when I am in the room withhim and the door is closed - I know because every nig...

Re: Litter tray issues

Booktigger - how do you get a urine sample? I would definitely prefer that! He is actually much easier to take to the vet then my other cat - he is way less effected by it, but obviously would be easier not to have to! I can’t think how I would get a urine sample though??

Re: Litter tray issues

I will take a video of him this evening - I forgot this morning! The other day, he went to his tray cried and sat in it for some seconds. He did go back and did a poo that time. Thats why I am not sure whether its to do with constipation or a urinary problem! do people think it would be ok to try ta...

Re: Litter tray issues

Well, after talking to a friend last night, we thought it could be a possibility. BUT, he kicks a fuss before he WEES too. like last night, he whined a lot, went to his tray, kicked about, and left, and then whined for about an hour before going back and urinating So it’s hard to know really. I actu...

Re: Litter tray issues

Thank you so much for that information Yes that makes sense. That is probably exactly what the vet did. Thank you! He did not seem worried (the vet) but he did say to come back if the problem persists My cat can get whingey like that for lots of things, so it’s hard to know whether its pain or him b...

Re: Litter tray issues

Yes, he is neutered. The vet did not do a urine sample, he just gave him a shot of anti biotics. Reading that has made me a bit annoyed, as it’s possibly a waste of a vet trip, I think though if I bring him in again they will want to do that. Thank you

Re: Litter tray issues

He is still urinating, I know its an emergency if he doesn’t, I am guessing it could be a partial blockage then. I will video it next time, that is a good idea. Thank you!

Litter tray issues

Hi, I am new here, I thought I would come see what its like around here :] I have used this site a lot to look at kittens and cats that need rehoming, but not the forum! I would love a bit of advice. I have a 6 month old kitten who is very particular about his toilet and was that way from the start ...
