wow. your cat definitely has a problem. just out of curiosity have you had
his urine tested lately? and by a different vet who uses a different lab?
do you feed dry food(I stopped dry altogether when 3 of my cats got Flutd)
and no fish in any of the canned foods. (fish is hidden in alot of
chicken/turkey/beef canned foods--it's on the labels) Also no organ meats
and no yeast. Anitra Frazier's book has alot of info on inappropriate
spraying. have you also tried over on the holisticat website? or asked on
their mailing list? I'm also wondering because he is the youngest that maybe
some of the others are bullying him. one of my cats had alkaline crystals,
the other had acidic--so one gets vitamin C the other gets potassium
citrate. they both get 400 IU Vit E 1x week and 10,000 A and 400 units Vit D
once a week. Have you tried Rescue Remedy at all? I've been researching thru
books for my one female cat who stress sprays. I know her problem is I have
too many cats for her liking. Just recently read about St John's wort and
phenylalanine in the Veterinarians's guide to natural remedies for
Cats-Martin Zucker. book also mentions B12 folic. (st johns' -100 milligrams
2x day, phenylalnine 100 milligrams 2x day, B12 folic -each capsule contains
800 micrograms of both nutrients-give equilvalent of about 200 micrograms of
each nutrient-1/4 capsule--the book is referring to a specific b12 folic
tha's sold thru health professionals but can use stuff sold at health food
stores.)
So that's what I'm off to buy tomorrow.
in the meantime can you put the cat in a garage? or outside?
