| I've just gone through this. The random peeing lasted for about three
days. Mine was on Amoxi 2 x a day plus a pill called probanthine (sp)
which relaxes the muscles and helps them go easier. I pulled out a
couple of extra small litter boxes, placed heavy towels under them and
placed them throughout the house. The medication should kick in
shortly, if not call your vet immediately.

| Also, buy an enzyme cleaner like Nature's Miracle at a pet store; it
will remove the urine smell. If the smell remains, your cat will
"revisit" the site even after the infection is cleared up. Many of us
have been thru this, sigh.

| For more information about Urinary Tract infections, check the
keywords. The keyword for this is "FUS" or "CYSTITIS".

| Maggie had this when I first adopted her, and it was diagnosed when she
went to the vets, unfortunately, immediately after she was spayed, and
the poor thing was so miserably sick. She had to stay at the vets a
couple of days, so lucky for me, she no longer peed in the house
randomly. I'll never forget the morning my youngest son climbed into my
bed, not feeling well, and vomited on me. In the middle of all that
hulabaloo, Mags jumped up on the bed and peed on me. What a way to
start the morning!

5069.6 | Missy is all better! | WMOIS::RIVETTS_P | | Thu Nov 21 1991 12:52 | 10 |
| Hi, yes kitty is all better. The vet gave her a shot and 7 days
worth of Amoxi. She has stopped peeing everywhere, only in her litter
box. She feels soooo much better. She is back to chasing her brother
around the house again.
It's funny, but after the third day when I came home from work,
she came up to me and rubbed all over my legs. She is never one to
come greet me. My little boy always does all the greeting. I think
she was saying "thank you".

5069.8 | Update on kittys Urinary Infection | WMOIS::RIVETTS_P | | Mon Dec 02 1991 08:50 | 19 |
| Update on 5069-Urinary track infection. She given the Amoxi for
seven days, but I decided to finish the bottle so she was actually on
it for 10 days. The last day she took the medicine, she started
squating all over the place again. So...off the the vet again. This
time I stuck a cup under her and got a urine sample. There was blood
in it. The vet says she has FUS. He told me to give her c/d for 3
weeks and then bring in a urine sample. He said then I could feed her
Hills but that it may come back or never come back.
What do you guys do with cats with this, do you continue to feed
them the c/d or switch over to the Hills and feed them only the c/d
when they have this problem.
Another question. It has been only 4 days (today being the forth
day) and she hasn't stopped squating yet. But she doesn't do it as
often. The vet said this will take 3-5 days. I hope she stops soon.
My other cat loves to play in boxes. Missy (the one with FUS) keeps
peeing in them.
