Come ‘ere, You Little Pissant!

Am becoming a bit concerned about Newt.  He’s developed a new habit of … ahem … “thinking outside of the box,” if you will.

To be blunt, he has begun peeing in inappropriate locations!  Grocery bags, cardboard boxes, dog food bowl … Grrrrrrrrrr.  Poor Cat Daddy, poor Mommy,  poor Newt. Oh, and Poor Greycie, too; she’s Newt’s “One True Love” who was recently diagnosed with early stage kidney disease / Chronic Renal Failure.  We had suspected that it was she who was having issues, but then we discovered Newt’s new game when we caught him in the act.

I swear, he used up yet another of his 9+ lives when I discovered that he had not only knocked my fabulous new, bright yellow Crunchies bag onto the floor and had a whiz on it, he had also snagged my favorite scarf off of my chair and onto the bag to cover it! Fortunately for him, I had recently removed the latest knitting project out of the Crunchies bag, and it was sitting on the desk, empty. But, still! 

In addition to the peeing issue, he has been showing some serious aggression off and on the last week, went mildly symptomatic for about 10 hours on Friday, and has been a bit off his feed. 

Needless to say, I have been stalking him with a specimen cup for the last several days, trying to get a urine sample to take to the vet. But suddenly, Mr. “I’m going to leap in and pee in the box while you are cleaning it” has gotten shy.  And sneaky.

So, am a bit worried on more than one count.  Do we have a UTI? Are we seeing Struvite crystals? Has he begun ::horrified gasp:: spraying?

Because of his reactiveness to just about everything, neutering has not yet been performed. The original plan was to have him neutered at the time of his shunt surgery.  But since the Ultrasound was inconclusive, and we then decided to not pursue surgery because the vets were not sure he could survive the anaesthesia and we didn’t have a good read on his shunt anyway, well, let’s just say that Pookie’s Package is still present.

Needless to say, he’s had quite a bit of “time out” the last couple of days. And instead of me calling “here, kitty kitty,” the refrain has changed to reflect his newest nickname, compliments of the ever-witty Cat Daddy:

“Come ‘ere, you little Pissant!”

  1. Still going through this with Autumn, so my sympathies. She used the litter box for a week after her second acupuncture session, but was has been back in full pee mode since the third one. We don’t leave any fabric items on the floor or the table. Last night someone (Tiffers) knocked the lunch bags down from their high spot and we found them soaked.

    I have some Dogswell dog treats for you if you want them. I had requested a free sample of cat treats, and months later dog treats were sent.

  2. Oh dear, poor Autumn! Poor you! We just found another bizarre item that he has marked (a post for another day). We’ve gotten everything pee-able off of the floor, his sample came back clean, so not sure what is going on.

    Thanks for thinking of us with the treats, but not sure when I can get over there. Same thing happened to another friend, only in reverse. They have dogs and keep getting CAT treats!

    Hey maybe we’ll see you over at Mighty Healthy Pet for the Free Reiki for Animals Demos I’m doing tomorrow. Would be cool to see you again.

    Hugs to all,

  3. Abby and I will be there, sending reiki as needed. I’ll try to remember to bring the treats and your lid.
