when alan and i would go play ping pong in the cats' room, mitz would start tinkling in the litterbox multiple times. alan thought he was just showing off. then i decided to take him to the vet. his going to the bathroom a lot reminded me of when i had a uti and i was constantly on the toilet, but nothing would come out. turns out, mitz also had a uti. he had tapeworms, too. one of my other cats had tapeworms, too. so i got medicine for both and now....no rice on their butts! and with a bottle of clavamox, mitz is no longer "showing off" in the shitbox.i am very thankful that it was only a uti. before i took him to the vet, i looked up uti's in cats. there's some really scary stuff out there. some things i read were that xrays may be needed (possibly even an ultrasound) to look for stones, surgery, and if i didn't take him in immediately, he could die within 24 hours. so i took him in in less than 24 hours. no xray. just a urinalysis.
Please....for the love of ... God, or someone, no more cats.
