Feline Urinary Tract Disorders & The “Stoned” Cat
Do you know the signs of a cat urinary blockage? Do you know about FLUTD? Maybe you’re puzzled why your cat suddenly pees outside the box? Or maybe he strains and strains but can’t elminate. Is it constipation? Or does he have a cat urinary blockage? How can I stop my cat from peeing on the carpet?
If you’re asking these questions, you’ve come to the right place. Feline lower urinary tract disorders (FLUTD) can cause deadly cat urinary blockage. It frustrates cat owners—and also the cats! A cat urinary blockage can be deadly, so it’s vital to recognize the signs of a feline urinary tract disorder.

Thanksgiving the Pet Writer Way

Lost And Found Thriller: Cat-Centric Excerpt
12:05 p.m. September stumbled from the car and plodded through snow drifts. Her feet clomped like dead blocks of ice. If she fell, she might not be able to get up. Shadow’s hysterical yelps followed her. She worried his noise might give away her location, but wished...
Lost And Found Thriller: Dog Viewpoint Excerpt
12:21 p.m. Shadow howled frantic harmony to September’s cries. He didn’t know how he could hear her in the car. She wasn’t here. And she couldn’t hear him, though he barked loud and long. His fur stood at furious attention. He showed his teeth, snapped and snarled,...
