midgie tells us more.
Oh, she's been to the vet. Lots. And apparently, unlike in humans, cat 'stress incontinence' isn't the kind where you pee when you sneeze, but the kind where you pee everywhere when you're stressed. Why is she stressed? We think she freaked out when my husband worked away from home for a few weeks. Why isn't she better - dunno! She has meds. from the vet to help her. I can't keep her out of the kitchen, due to the design of my funny, v. old, house the kitchen doesn't have a door to close it off from the rest of the house. Also her cat-flap (kitty door) is in the front door, which opens onto ...the kitchen. And she's been peeing under my bed... I've now thoroughly run out of tolerance for cat pee, hence the hatred...

If your cat feels miserable enough that the extreme stress is pushing her THAT far, then you are a total failure as a pet owner. YDI, because you could do SO MANY things to soothe her and put an end to her stress issues.
Yes, like euthanize her. Animals can feel stress for other reasons like their owner leaving on a trip or working more. It doesn't have to be the animal is being beaten or neglected. Especially in temperamental evil monsters like cats. Doesn't anyone also realize how unhealthy it is. I mean come on traces of cat pee in the place where you cook your food. Disgusting.
Tell me about it. No money for a new stove. FML. - OP.
Thanks Mermaid lol I would NEVER mix em though. Bleach is all I use...
if his litter box doesn't meet our cats cleanliness standards he'll pee in the laundry. vinegar is about the only thing that gets the smell out.
Does your cat make too much noise?!?!?! Try Kitten Mittens!
HAHA WIN!
She knows she's not allowed up there. Never went before, in 11 yrs. Only started jumping up there to pee on my stove :(
Your cat might have kidney disease, so take it to a different vet. In addition, let someone adopt it that can deal with the "stress incontinence." The only cats I've ever heard of having that were in households that they hated... and peeing all over is usually a sign of an underlying disease. (My cats only peed in places other than the litterbox when they had chronic renal failure, and a few times when one was mad at me for not giving her soft food.)
F your cats life for having such a whiny, bitchy owner. No person who wasn't dead inside would care more about that than their sick pet, and even go so far as to say they hate their animal. Unfortunately most people are more stupid and disgusting than any animal so it happens a lot.
there r way 2 many ppl that care about cats...its an effin cat, they rn't loyal they dont give a shit about u and u cant train them. if u have a crappy cat shoot it

I've always wondered what the scent of burning cat pee is like. In some Asian cultures burning cat pee is used for aromatherapy. Consider yourself lucky that you have a cat that is aware of this fact. Your own little aroma therapist!
um, ew. but you shouldnt hate her, its not her fault. you should have trained her and possibly have her spayed (if thats the actual problem, usually its only with males tho)
