Kelly, I feel so bad for you after you've described your troubles-your cats do much more random peeing than my Bandit used to. He only went in the heat vent (very nice) or on top of it once we covered it with plastic and all sorts of contraptions. I think I tried EVERYTHING before my vet suggested the prozac. Like you, I found that Feliway was interesting to my cats, but did nothing to their behavior. I'm so sorry that your babies are difficult to pill. Bandit just opens up and swallows very obediently. Unlike yours, he hears the bottle opening and usually comes into the kitchen-weird I know. I'm not sure what his pills taste like, but he must be okay with them-or else he's just very excited to please-plus he gets extra love and attention when he takes his medicine-that could be why. You must be a very patient and loving person to have dealt with so much trouble this long! I know how exhausting and frustrating it can be! Plus, I'd find myself crawling around the floor with my nose ridiculously sniffing the carpet :-), very embarrassing if anyone came over! But, I was relieved, if you could call it that, that my cat only chose one place other than the litter box. I only pray it gets better for you! Bless you for sticking it out! I had people tell me they would have put down a cat that was doing what mine did! That's just horrifying!
But, I also agree with you Nina about not listening to those who are not as experienced-and I certainly am not experienced. I'm very new to medicating cats-I've only recently had special needs with Bandit and then with the 3 rescues this week. I'm learning quite a bit. So, if anyone thinks what I am doing is wrong-don't hesitate to let me know! I won't take it personally if you don't take my ignorance personally! I'm trying to learn quickly. By the way, what is this Flagyl? Melissa
