Question about possible symptoms

Post by clb2n »

I have a cat named Minnie and she was a stray, so I don't know a whole lot about her history. I have had her spayed, declawed, and she has her annual vaccinations. Recently she has started meowing more than usual and randomly urinated in my presence in very unusual places, i.e. her pet bed. Minnie is also cleaning her female parts a lot. I am not sure if I should be concerned about this or not.

Usually inappropriate urinating and licking is a sign of a urinary tract infection. Please have your Vet look at her asap.

Yes, you need to be concerned, this is, as Marty said, a red flag she could have a urinary tract infection or crystals or even blockage, DO NOT WAIT, Get her to an emerency vet RIGHT THIS MINUTE!...if crystals are present (which only your vet can determine), blockages can be fatal within hours!

Agree with others...sounds like a urinary tract infection and she needs to be seen ASAP
