Cat won't stop peeing everywhere and fighting my elderly cat.
Hi! I think I've posted before about this but here I am again. One of my cats will not stop peeing on everything. He pees on the dining table, laundry, the couch, the bed, blankets, my sons toys, on our shoes on the closet doors. It's too much. He pees outside the box multiple times a day. I spend hours each day searching for the cat pee and cleaning. I have been to his main vet 3 times in the last 6 months. Even took him to another vet just to see if they had any ideas. His blood work is good, no uti, I switched all the litter boxes to stainless steel (3) and 1 robo litter box. I scoop 2x a day and switch out the litter and wash everything every 2 weeks. We have tried different litters. Right now we have fresh step, scoop away, arm and hammer hard ball and pretty litter out. We bought a big catio , he hates it. So I give him yard time but I just do not have the time anymore, with a diabetic cat with an eye injury, we also have a 15 yr old dog with cancer.
He is now attacking my 16 year old diabetic cat. He runs up and smacks him a few times. I didn't see it happen but we think he is the one who scratched him in the eye. His eye deteriorated quickly and so far I've spent $1,800 at the veterinary Ophthalmologist, with no end in sight. I'm giving 8 different meds/ drops around the clock.
I am sick of this cat. All he does is cause problems. The vet says it's behavioral. They gave me gabapentin. I'm not sure what to do. I won't drop him at the pound. I doubt I will be able to rehome him, all the rescues are filled. I also don't know what to do about his brother, they have never been separated. Do I give both of them away? I feel so bad. I do love him but I cannot deal with this anymore. Everyone wants me to just dump him at the shelter. Do I just keep him on gabapentin for life? I'm so stressed out over this and I feel AWFUL. I've never rehomed a pet, I'm usually the one who takes in people's pets they are getting rid of.
I'm not asking for medical advice. I'm asking if with all his issues, should i re-home him? I feel like I've exhausted all my options.
