Peeing anywhere outside a bathroom can be problematic for more than just humans.
When it comes to cats, there is usually a reason they urinate outside the litter box, and it might not be what you think.
The Okanagan Humane Society is letting pet guardians know that the reason their fluffy feline might be leaving the litter box to do its business, isn香蕉视频直播檛 always a behavioural issue.
The society is seeing an uptick in cats brought to it with urinary issues.
The concern is when a feline is blocked and unable to pass urine, mostly seen in male cats due to their long urethra.
If a cat is fully blocked and unable to pass urine, then it can be a fatal medical condition.
How to spot if your cat is blocked:
