  • I agree with people who say you should consult a vet.

    But as a side note: baking soda doesn’t do shit for odors. That’s a myth that was started by the Arm & Hammer marketing team. And it’s doubly wrong to use in this instance, because amonia-heavy urine is already basic (high pH). If you want to neutralize it, you should be treating it with an acid like vinegar. Basic chemistry.

    Alternatively, pet stores sell litter deodorizers that do work and are safe. I’ve used one that is made from (I think) wheat germ.




  • Yeah. Ozzy doesn’t mind being picked up for brief periods but he will not sit in a lap. Occasionally he might jump up on the sofa and curl up next to someone but this is the closest he gets to sitting ON anyone. He might snuggle up at night except our older cat has staked out the bedroom as her territory and will always chase him out.
