Re: Peeing Problems
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi - there was a guy on TV with an incontinent cat, part of a documentary- see this YouTube link YouTube - Dog incontinence, cat incontinence, cat nappies, cat nappy He bought cat nappies and described them as a "life changing event" - and I know 2 people who have used them, one for a cat urinating / cat incontinence and one for a spraying cat. Guess they are also suitable for cats in season. I know they found them ideal for cat pee & for faecal incontinence, as they were so sick of cat urine with the cat urinating in just about every room in the house. Hope this is of some help. |

Re: Peeing Problems
Have you tried using puppy pads? I buy these for my oldest cat, Shania. She's getting along in years now, and earlier this year, she's developed the very nasty habit of peeing on the carpet. I took her to the vet and it turned out she had a bladder infection. I treated her infection and she's fine now, but she continues to pee on the carpet. That's when we figured that it was just a bad habit. At first, we would cover the area with a layer of plastic wrap, followed by a layer of paper towels, and then a layer of Reynold's Wrap. Whenever she peed in that spot, we would have to soak up the pee with paper towels. Yuck! Not a fun job! I emailed an animal behaviorist about the problem and she told me about this litter called Cat Attract. I figured it was worth a try, so I bought some at our local PetsMart. For awhile, we thought it worked but later we started finding wet spots on the carpet again. Also, the Cat Attract was really hard to scoop out. When it's wet, it hardens like cement! Then one day, I was at Wal-Mart and I came across these puppy pads. I know they're made for dogs and puppies, but I decided to give them a try. I bought a package and spread a couple out on the carpet for Shania. They worked! I wish she would just use the litter box if she has to pee, but if she insists on using that one particular corner of the carpet, I know the puppy pads will keep the area clean. And they're much easier to change than all those layers of paper towels, plastic wrap, and tin foil. I've also switched from Cat Attract to Arm & Hammer Essentials cat litter. It's all natural and much easier to scoop out.
If you decide to try puppy pads, buy the unscented pads instead of the scented ones. If they smell too perfumey, your cat may stay away from them. I hope you can get your cat to use the litter box again. If not, puppy pads are worth a try. Good luck! Kelly Last edited by Crazy4Kitties; 01-12-2008 at 09:08 PM. |
