  • We did the week of twice daily antibiotics and the urinary test to "confirm infection"

  • BoziePro is unscented

  • Litterbox Is LitterRobot 4, recent upgrade. Much better for her asthma, she was fine with the previous generation for years prior but I wanted to get the Shield to prevent the spread of dust and irritants that Im certain were hurting both of us

  1. I turned it off and I'll try just running it twice daily
  2. I swt up a seperate litter box for her in the hallway. I think I might have to put it inthe bedroom but for now its in the hallway by the door cuz I just canthave her pissing the bed again.

The Feliway should be here today so hopefully that helps relax her a and the other cat thats a bit of a guard hound and disturbingly aggressive to her.

There so many factors here and I'm just burnt out on all this.

-They're (feliway and hills "prescription" multistress urinary care food) in the mail and coming but in the meantime i closed the bedroom door, trying to keep her cordoned on a corner of the couch where i can watch her

Is this ever gonna end?

  • Can the enzymatic cleaner I used require to wash it too every time she pisses?

Im honestly at my breaking point here. I cant fucking handle an enemy within destroying my furniture and i just plopped my ass down unknowingly in to a fresh puddle of piss!

Halp!

Are you sure that the original infection was really cleared up? Could she have a new infection? Can she be contained to a crate or a pen or maybe the bathroom for a while so you get a break from the destruction?

My dog had a UTI, took a course of antibiotics and got tested again, came up clean. She had high protien levels in that 2nd urine test so we had to get another test 2 weeks later to check for possible kidney issues. Just heard back from the vet and my dog has another UTI. Is it the original infection that somehow barely survived the antibiotics and evaded detection? Is it a totally new infection? Who knows? Dogs aren’t cats (and thankfully, Molly isn’t peeing on the furniture) but all that to say: it can take a few tries to clear an infection and/or root cause an issue.
