My Cat won't shut the Hell Up today...5 hours straight now

oh, and yes they get urinary tract infections constantly if you feed them SHIT food from the grocery store or pet store.

You might as well eat tv dinners every meal, because THAT is what your doing to your cat.

UTI's are very common in cats. Lost two male cats due to that even though
I got them to the Vet ASAP. No harm in checking it out anyway.

Just ring it's neck ? Problem solved.

OMG...hello Mr./Miss Judgmental. It has only been 5 hours. She isn't rolling around the floor in convulsions. Her eyes are clear and she doesn't have an elevated temperature (YEAH..I checked...but I don't give a crap right?). She ate her damn food and hasn't thrown up.

I didn't post for a medical diagnosis. I wanted to see if anyone else was seeing odd behavior TODAY from their pets.

Well, the asshole judgmentals are out in full force today I see (Oh wait...this is GLP...just another day).

She gets quality food from Blue and has since she was a kitten. Nice assumption though Douche.

Really? I am a SHITBAG because I don't like cats but I was the one taking care of her ALL 14 years because the husband wanted a cat but didn't want to take care of one? REALLY? I am soooo happy you know so much about me. Here I was thinking that I was an anonymous person in this world but thank GOD there is someone who knows me so well that when I DO die they can put on my Tombstone "She was a SHITBAG cause she took care of a cat but didn't enjoy it".

Some of us were just trying to be helpful.
In an online community like this, there are a lot of
pet owners/breeders that care. Sorry if you felt slammed.
Hope some of it helped anyway.

Yeah. No. I understand. But I did NOT ask for medical advice as you can clearly see by my post.

Cats have feelings.

This topic hurts the cat's feelings.
....if your cat only knew that it was just being 'tolerated' instead of loved, im sure it would leave your home and never return. You need to hug that cat today. Then, take it to the vet like almost 200% of the people in this thread have told you to do already.

I agree! Jumping out of the litter box is a good sign of this. It hurts when they pee and they associate the box with the pain and don't want to use it. Look for peeing outside the box and check how big her pees are if you can, inside the box. No pee, big problem! One of my cats has this, it is chronic. Have to watch him all the time. It happens more in males, but also happens in females.

Well, then, to answer your specific question, I have one Pomeranian
I'm looking after for my daughter who's acting very strange, but then, he's
a Pom...so strangeness is a given. The rest of the cats and dogs here
are acting like their usual delightfully evil selves. :-)

You are an idiot. This cat is taken care of. Out of nothing else but obligation. You all just make me want to puke by your assumptions from just a word or a sentence. The cat doesn't need to go to the damn vet after just 5 hours of mouthy behavior with no other symptoms. I believe I have probably just nicked a few nerves of a bunch of PETA freaks here.

Your cat is crying in pain, stupid.

And your math is "fuzzy".

This is complete bull. My cats are fed high quality food and one of mine still gets utis. Dry food keeps them dehydrated, if they won't eat wet and one of mine will not eat wet food.
Even high quality dry food dehydrates cats.

Yes OP, I live in southeastern PA - not near you, but there was a small minor EQ in New Jersey last evening, not too far from me - unusual area, even though it was small.

My cats are hovering in the bathroom constantly the last 24 hours - all three of them. One is sitting on the toilet lid, one is in the sink and the other is precariously perched on the edge of the bathtub. I have to literally pick the one up off the toilet to use it (sorry TMI) and within minutes of my leaving the bathroom he is right back on the toilet again. Strangely they are not laying in there sleeping, they are sitting there, eyes wide open like they are on watch. This bathroom is in the center of my house and is a small bathroom.

There was a small EQ in Missouri about the same time as the NJ small EQ late last night...not right on top of you but close enough.

I have never seen my cats do anything like this. Even though cats are pack animals, mine don't seem to care if they are sleeping or resting with the others....this is really very weird for them. Also the toilet sitter becomes very upset if the two younger ones leave the bathroom and try to make them come back...crying like he is calling them and won't stop until they come back.

Sad statement isnt it?

It is. Poor cat.

You are sick in the head. Probably a crazy cat woman with toxoplasmose.

The cat is meowing because it is pissed it has to live with a shitbag like you OP.

Just like humans cats get older and they change habits like sleeping and eating or even groaning. Its basically dementia but in cats. Cats are considered "elderly" at 14.

All normal behavior.

She prolly wants milk... and btw my cat always does a victory sprint after unloading.

Even if she is urinating, this would be my guess, also. A very common malady and an easy fix with pills from the vet. Please help your kitty!

Why do people think it is OK to speak to people "anonymously" in this way online? Would you actually say something like that to a stranger on the street without knowing their situation?

Could be. Only posted however because it was out of the blue, never having heard her so mouthy for such a long period of time without any other kind of distress symptoms.

To those of you who genuinely were concerned without being judgmental and assuming, thank you. She calmed down about an hour ago and is back to normal. To the rest of you A-holes...fuck off.
