healthy and growing by leaps and bounds. My 8 almost 9 year old daughter is being a good girl, my new home is halfway painted, need to get back to doing that. Just waiting for the hands to recoup from painting for two straight days. Will be able to move into it in a couple of weeks after all is said and done. My husband bought me a brand new dishwasher and stove for the new home. Just happy campers here all around.

11. My cat didn't pee on the couch last night

Thus delaying her throttling at my hands by another day.

[LiberalEsto]

17. Can you take her to a vet?

She may have a urinary tract infection, very common in cats because of something in dry cat food. She might be peeing on the couch to get your attention and let you know that she is ill.

If you can't manage a vet visit, feed her plain yogurt, the kind that has active cultures in it. A good friend who is a veterinarian told me to do this because I couldn't afford an office visit. It worked on the one with peeing problems, and both my picky cats developed quite a taste for yogurt.

[jobycom]

20. That's not it

I've had much experience with urinary tract infections, and much with this cat peeing on couches. I've wasted tons of money on vet visits thinking that could be it, and on one of the last visits they switched her food, just in case, and this led to near fatal Fatty Liver Disease, which cost me literally thousands of dollars I didn't have to fix it.

She's just a neurotic cat, and when something gets her upset, she starts peeing on everything. Has done it for ten years now.

[LiberalEsto]

22. Bummer

That would drive me nuts.

Just to be on the safe side, though, why not try her on yogurt?
