Also, my vet always recommends the "Cat Attaract', which I tried on Serenity.
Didn't really work.
Pretty pricey stuff, too.
Have you ever used this product?
Any feedback?
(Sorry, hope I am not picking your brain dry....... :)
I forgot to mention that the felv+ cats have 2 litterboxes, big Petsmart brand,
where they have clay / w/ some crystals.
Everyone in there is happy as a clam.
I also have a dry erase board in the cat room where I monitor litterbox
changing, med schedules (once again, some cats are on a "rotation" of meds),
food bowls, Drinkwells, flea treatments.....etc.......
I do this so I know when I need to change the boxes.
They get dumped and washed w/ Simple Green.
Felv+ boxes are ONLY used for felv+ cats, that's why they have a different
"type" of box, for visibility.
Same w/ their Drinkwell, even though it goes through the dishwasher.

Re litter box issues:
Make sure you are using unscented litter without the blue pellets. My cats,
Dixie and those who have left, will not tolerate the perfumed kind. This is
logical if you are a very few inches from the litter, kicking it etc. The blue
things contain germicides that, as one company says, causes no trouble most of
the time............I don't deal with most of the time.
Try using Rubbermaid or knock offs boxes without lids. They give more room
(important for ferals particularly--they are vulnerable when and don't like to
feel closed in/trapped) and have high enough backs that a cat who has trouble
(for any reason including "I just don't want to") can urinate without getting
it all over the place (I learned this when Ebony was getting older and had a
physical problem that made getting down difficult).
Yes, the Feliway may help. It was designed for "pee-problems."
If you have men who will
exclude any of God's creatures
from the shelter of
compassion and pity, you will have men who
will deal likewise with
their fellow man.
