We are pretty sure it is not a UTI either - she has already been to the vet once and we tried that UTI litter detector and it found nothing - but we are going again just to be sure it is nothing medical. We are really running out of options - we have tried so many things in the last few years and just cannot figure it out and I am getting to point where I think there is nothing to figure out - there just comes a time when enough is enough I think and we are pretty much there. I really cannot try to give her to someone else knowing that she has these problems already. We adopted her originally from an animal shelter so I think she comes with some unexplained baggage - mentally and emotionally that we may not be able to solve. She seems like such a happy and loving cat to have such problems. We closed the blinds so she cannot see any outside cats, we clean the litter out incessantly, have multiple litter boxes, the list goes on of the things we have tried and all failed. She used the litter boxes - she just also uses those two corners of the house. We don't know what more we can do.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08381103120658976286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3278444853313965899.post-78678762160905745102008-03-22T10:48:00.000-04:002008-03-22T10:48:00.000-04:00She might have a Urinary Tract Infection.

She is obviously trying to tell you something...the trick is finding out what it is. <BR/><BR/>Also, there are several VERY good animal behavioral specialist in the Indy area. The best being up on the north side I believe, but they do telephone consults (not cheap) so that might be an option. Otherwise, don't put her down, just let her move to your garage or the great outdoors...I just can't bear putting animals down...makes me sad.Sherry at the Zoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087213659575570975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3278444853313965899.post-39786901503917567802008-03-22T09:40:00.000-04:002008-03-22T09:40:00.000-04:00As an update...we have another appt scheduled at t...As an update...we have another appt scheduled at the vet who saw her the first time - this time they are going to take urine samples. Before they just examined her for cysts and lumps .Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08381103120658976286noreply@blogger.com
