Cat had a urinary tract infection and now pees everywhere?


Cat had a urinary tract infection and now pees everywhere?My six month old cat recently developed a urinary tract infection and we brought him to the vet and he is now on a special medicine and diet. Ever since then, though, he has been peeing everywhere (on clothes, beds, even in our bath tub) as if he was never litter box trained! Does anyone know why this is or what we should do?

It is letting you know that something isn't right.If the med. doesn't help him or her within a couple days, get it back to the vet. It can kill a cat.

that is the first sign of a urinary tract infection . call the vet and ask how long it should be doing that . the meds might not be working

its not his fault that he pees just block him of in a room till he is better

Either he is still experiencing pain or these places still smell like urine. Get an enzymatic cleaner to clean the places where he goes so that it doesn't still smell like an appropriate place to pee. Also call your vet tomorrow, phone calls are free and it wont hurt anything, ask if this behavior should still be continuing. It is possible that he needs a different dosage or medicine. Remember not all antibiotics fight all infections. Of course, do not stop giving any medicine without your vet's knowledge as it can prolong or inhibit the healing or create antibiotic resistant bacteria. It could also be that you haven't given the medication enough time to work. You didn't say how long ago he was put on it.
