Litter box issues can also be the most expensive to deal with. We’ve known clients whose cats had ruined two homes before they came to us.
How, you ask? The urine had gotten onto the walls, and then the urine cleaner did too, so that the sheetrock was ruined and they had to replace the paint. The urine that dripped down the wall went behind the baseboards, so that they too had to be peeled away and replaced. Urine got under the sub-flooring, so that they had to remove the carpet, pad, and sub-flooring. There was urine in light sockets. Of course, after our consultation, none of this ever happened again.
If only more cat owners knew what the Cat Behavior Clinic teaches its clients every day, far fewer cats would be given up to shelters or even euthanized (currently millions each year). It’s a tragedy that so many cat owners are at a loss about how to stop the very preventable behavior of cats urinating outside their box.
Using a version of our three-part C.A.T. Plan customized just for you and your cat, in your feline behavior consultation with the Clinic we’ll show you:
- how your own behavior is probably contributing to the unwanted urination problem
- how your cat’s innate instincts directly affect his litter box needs and how you can make simple changes to meet these needs. It’s not all about adding boxes either…
- the retraining process to ensure your cat deposits all his urine in the litter box — every time
- the latest behavior modification techniques to undo the habituated behavior in soiled areas so they’re less attractive for future urination. This is what most behaviorists and vets leave out and why you will fail every time.
- why social tension between cats is often the cause for litter box issues — and what to do about it
- and much more
| “We have 3 cats. My female cat Violet had been urinating all over my home everyday for 9 years. I had my furniture, even my bed, covered in plastic. Mieshelle asked me a lot of questions and told me why my cat was urinating everywhere (it was my other cat’s fault!) and also how to deal with the problem. I can’t believe she is using the litter box again after all these years! I no longer have everything covered in plastic! I only regret not getting help from Mieshelle sooner! My cat is also more confident and content around the other two cats.” – Vicki L. Vancouver, WA “Woohoo! My cat peed in her box immediately after I (behavior advice removed) and she hasn’t peed elsewhere since. I’m shocked – out of all the Google searches and people I asked about litterbox issues, no one mentioned (behavior advice removed), which I obviously would have tried if I’d known about it before. “Thanks so much for everything!” –Eliza R., Pasadena, CA “Our vet enjoyed working with you and the entire staff is so thankful you helped us with our cat’s issues. I think they were really getting tired of seeing this cat week after week! If only this knowledge was more readily available to cat owners, there would be less of them in the shelters! I will follow-up with you after our vacation. Thank you!!” S. Berger, New York, NY “Chardonnay is no longer urinating on our couch and bed. It has been 3 weeks and no accidents! Thanks you! I really think it was the (behavior advice removed). Our vet wants to take you out to lunch! I think they’re just happy not to see us in the clinic every week for this urinating issue! Your knowledge has saved our household!” – Marci and Sigmund W., New York, NY |
