    Relationship section about cats.

    The site has a main section called 'Marriage, Relationship and families', and has a sub section called 'Pets & pet care'.

    It was pointed out to me by a contributor above, so seems more appropriate.

    My cat suffers from stress. In her case it usually starts a couple of days after a fight with another cat. She is really good at standing her ground during a fight but then the anxiety seems to kick in.

    Anyway I have found that either Cystease or Cystaid capsules are really good. You just sprinkle them over their food. Depending on your cats weight 1-2 capsules daily tapering off after a week. Not too expensive either. Also I always have a Feliway diffuser to hand which I plug in when the problems starts. Problem usually starts to resolve after about 48 hours.

    Have any Koreans moved in nearby? Just wondering why she might be stressed.

    Try and get rid of the smell of pee really thoroughly. It may get over the other cat in time and not be as stressed - I hope so.

    Some one will have better ideas than I can offer.

    Good luck.
  • Have they checked the cat's teeth?

    Last time my girl brazenly pee'd in front of me (rather then use the cat toilet which is better then the bog standard cat litter tray might I add) it turned out this was the problem and after an operation and two lots of painkiller, it turned out my 15 or 18 yo cat (it changes each time we see the vet!) is fine now. Touch wood.
  • OP move home but don't tell the cat !

    She has been examined by the vet already, and found to be in good health
